[comp.protocols.appletalk] Timbuktu 3.1, is it in color now ?

infocenter@urz.unibas.ch (01/31/91)

Can anybody give me a short briefing about Timbuktu 3.1?

I read there was I review in MacWorld 10/90, but I have no access to 
that issue.

What's the difference to version 3.0? Did they introduce color? This would
be very helpful for educational purposes!

Thanx ..................................................................  Didi

I assume you are talking about the appletalk version:
First the bad news...  TB2 3.1 does NOT do color.  The good news is
that it now(as of 3.1) can connect to multible Macs and put each
"screen" in its own window(limited only by memory acording to the
docs).  I've found it to be very robust, and I use it daily.
