[comp.sys.mac] VersaTerm 3.0 on a 128K Mac

     Now before you start yelling about how 128K Macs are as useful as the
Xerox'd version of Inside Mac, (I personally own both, I'll have you know) let
me tell you that we're slowly upgrading them.
     Our department has a _lot_ of 128K Macs, mostly used by secretaries as
terminals.  Some of them really, really wanted to use VersaTerm, so we bought
it for them.  The manual says it runs on a 128K Mac.  MacUser says it runs on
a 128K Mac.  Fine.  I put the disk in.  (It comes with Finder 4.1, System 2.0)
I run VersaTerm.  Boom.  Crash-ola.  I tried deleting those extra VersaTerm
files (UNIX mail, VMS mail, etc.), but it still crashed.

     I plan to complain to the publisher when I send in the registration
cards, but maybe some of you know how to get it to run on a 128K Mac.  Any
suggestions, or have we bought a bunch of mistakes?
