        Well, this may sound irrelevent (that's because it is), but I know
there's a program out for the Mac called ][ in a Mac, which emulates an apple
][ on your Macintosh.  It seems to run on a Mac II, so it should run on Magic
Sac.  It does seem to run almost all the software out, and is a really neato
keen package.  Now imagine this:  an ST running Mac emulation (faster and with
a larger screen) running ][ software!!!  :-)  Now, anybody out there know of
any software emulators for the ][ that are VERY compatible?????  (hee hee)

                        Tasteful Forever,
