I am really excited about the MACpaint program for the MAC and the possibilities of developing diagrams for manuals, transparencies, etcetera. I am not in a position to go add a MAC to my collection of machines but I could acquire minimal hardware and software to add to either an IBM PC or APPLE IIe if it was capable of handling work similar to what MACpaint can do. The product that comes to mind first is MOUSEpaint for the Apple II. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is it as good as MACpaint, what are its limitations? How about printing the results of your work? I would need to use an Orange Micro Grappler talking to essentially an Epson MX80 with Graftrax(?) - Does that compromise the output? If so what printer/interface mechanism do I need? I also have an interest in having similar capabilities on a PC. Does anyone know of a product that offers these capabilities on a PC???? Please mail me any thoughts you have on this subject. Thanks!
