Argh! I recently put MaxAppleZoom on my IIcx, and I really liked it. However, it ceased working on Friday, June 21, 1991. If the calendar is past this date, it says it cannot work, and if it is before this date, it works fine. I am frustrated. Does anyone else have the same problem? read fritsch RAFST3@vms.cis.pitt.edu

Yes, MaxAppleZoom worked fine on my Mac II running System 7 until this morning, and now it no longer works. -- Robert I.

Referring to the documentation, the author says that perhaps someday when a new system version comes out MaxAppleZoom will need to be updated, and whether it gets updated will depend upon how good people are about paying their shareware fees ($25). I confess, I haven't paid mine (well, gee, I was *going* to pay it, I *planned* on paying it, I just hadn't gotten around to it. Honest.) Just maybe the code includes a little more concrete incentive than the documentation implies. Anyway, I think I'll sit down and write my check tonight; the product is well worth the money, and he obviously spent a lot of time creating it. He deserves to be paid.

Does anyone else have the same problem? As many people have noticed, MAZ 1.2 has some kind of timebomb -- (thanks Matthew Russotto for figuring this out!). I have been frustrated in my attempts to find 1.3. I am a registered owner, but I am trying to avoid writing to the developer in Belgium and making him send me a disk. The only copy I could find was in the BMUG BBS, and it always ends up as a document with no resource fork when I download. If anyone has a working version of 1.3, could they please either: post it to comp.binary.mac or binhex and send it to me. Thanks in advance Carl Resnikoff carl@sybase.com

In various previous articles, people have indicated that MaxAppleZoom has stopped working on their machines. My question is, "What version are you using?" I have version 1.3, and am running on a Mac II under System 7, and as of today, 6/26, it is still working. Perhaps you have an older version that had some code in so as to expire so people would make sure to get the latest version. -- Roger L. Long bytebug@dhw68k.cts.com
