[comp.sys.apple] claris address request

GXH101@PSUVM.BITNET (SCOTT HOLLINGSWORTH) (03/16/89)

I need the address for claris.  I just found out from my dealer that
they took  over appleworks.  I need an upgrade I have version 1.1 and
just today I made it crash (first time I ever did that).  A phone number
might also be helpful.  Is there anything else I should know?  I have an
early //c (1984) it doesn't support uni-disk.  Is there currently any
IIe that runs at the speed of a //c+?  I would like to expand to ms-dos
compatibility, at least so I can read data files.  If apple would
develop the IIe so it could have better graphics, sound, and 16 or
32-bit processing while retaining compatibility with 8-bit then it become
a serious machine.

Yeah. It's called the ][gs.  Uses 3.5 disks like the //c+, allows
MS-DOS (I have a PC Transporter card from Applied Engineering in mine),
runs faster than a //c+ with AE's Transwarp GS card (on 8 bit software),
has better graphics, much better sound, and it runs 16 bit software.
Whether it is serious or not depends on Apple's future commitment
to the entire Apple ][ line.

I dunno.  Is there?  What I want to know is when mailorder for Frost starts.
What?  This isn't rec.music.gdead?  Oops. ;-)

No, there's no //e that runs as fast as a //c+.  I'm sure that there's
people here that'll tell you the //c is a serious machine, as is the //e and
the //gs etc... but I digress.

Hope you get the info/software you need.

There are, however, //e's with Rocket chips in them that are FASTER
than the //c+ :-)
