This is just a recommendation on my part. If you ever hear about a program made for other computers that you would like to see on the Apple II or an Apple IIGS specific version, find out who publishes the program and WRITE to them. This kind of thing WILL help. It helps in many other areas, like politics and TV shows, so why not software? (btw, Star Trek was brought back for a third season because of a writein campaign. As an aside: WRITE TO FOX ABOUT BRINGING BACK ALIEN NATION! I HAVE!) I have written to a few companies so far and will write to more once I get my printer back (my sister has it). I'm going to write to the publishers of Populus and Dark Heart of Uurkrul pretty much for sure. This is in a way MORE important if you're a GS user and you get a reply back spouting about the lack of capabilities of the Apple II. They said it about Ultima VI for the Apple II, and now the writin campaign has brought them to say they'll make BOTH an Apple II version and a GS version! If they start spouting about the lack of capabilities of the Apple II, write them back and correct them and tell them that the GS has all of the 'generic' capabilities of IBMs or Amigas that previous Apple IIs could be argued to not have had. (That is, graphics and sound capabilities and memory capacity are SOMETIMES justifiable complaints) We know that great things can be written for the Apple II (still).. Prince of Persia proves that 100%.. SO GET OUT YOUR WORD PROCESSORS AND START WRITING TO SOFTWARE COMPANIES -- / Apple II(GS) Forever! unknown@ucscb.ucsc.edu \ \"If cartoons were meant for adults, they'd be on in prime time."-Lisa Simpson/
