[comp.sys.mac.hardware] IIfx and 13" Apple Monitor

tom@fangorn.gsfc.nasa.gov (Thomas D. Schardt) (01/17/91)

Our secretaries' Mac IIs were recently upgraded to IIfxs.  Since that
time, they have been experiencing problems when they use Microsoft
Word and Microsoft PowerPoint.  When they use Word for some period of time,
the display loses its vertical hold and cannot be read.  I was just told
that now the mouse is freezing up when they go into Word.  The only way
to fix the problem is to power down and reboot.  Also they have had 
a problem with PowerPoint apparent not refreshing the chart display window
when they change pages.  Has anyone seen this problem?  Is it a Microsoft
incompatibility with the IIfx?  Is it a hardware problem.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks,

I know this is irrelevant chaff for this newsgroup, but is anyone else
as offended as I am that NASA is spending our hard-earned money on
IIfx's for secretaries doing word processing???
