I am considering advising a friend with several Rainbows in
his office to change to WP5.0. A previous attempt to go to 4.2
was waylaid by the fact that that 4.2 lacked a printer driver
for his NEC LC-860+.
WordPerfect just wrote back to me (shock, amazement !!! A
software company that ANSWERS letters ) and provided me with
an LQP02 driver for 5.0. They are looking into a solution for
the 24/25 line problem.
So the only remaining problem is:
how well does the CB/5.0 combination work?
Is video redirection needed? Is the screen writing
speed acceptable? disk I/O?
Many of these thing could be determined by experimenting, but
Don is on the North Coast while I am down here midst bugs,
drugs, and cocaine Cowboys.
Of course if you have the Suitable Solutions upgrade, let me
know that. BTW, these machines have 10meg/892 k, if that makes
a difference.
