Does anyone possess and have knowledge about the :

            BIT 3 80 column board

                    or the

            Franklin 80 column board?
I'm looking at buying one of these but don't know which one.
I am trying to find out if these boards are compatible with some of the
existing sw : 
                     APX Pascal,
                     APX Deep Blue C,
                     any of the OSS C, Assembler products,
                     any editors,
                     or word processors.
(Also it would be nice to know why you bought one over the other)

            Any help would be appreciated,
                     c.ditzel
