Heh, the very first Apple II I ever saw in the flesh, so to speak was one a friend got from an accountant she knew. The top rows and left hand column with the row numbers from VisiCalc were permanently burned into the monitor. Basically the thing spent 8-10 hours a day 5-6 days a week doing spreadsheets. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
