I was reading through the A+ for January 1989 and on page 106 (isn't this an intresting way for a biblio reference) there was an ad from Quality Computers (phone #1-800-443-6697) for Transwarp GS by Applied Engineering. What's the scoop? Is this really a card for the GS only (as opposed to the "old" Transwarp)? If so, what's its specs? Sounds like it could be what I've been always waiting for in the GS. Calvin.
