	A friend of mine is using an IBM pc clone with
Microsoft Works 2.0.  He recently acquired an HP LaserJet
I with a serial port interface which uses font cartridges.
He, however, found that Microsoft Works 2.0 does not
have an entry for LaserJet I.  His question is:

	is there a software available that allows him
to choose font within Microsoft Works 2.0?  That is if
he wants Helvetica, he will pop the helvetica cartridge
into the LaserJet I and select Helvetica font within 
Microsoft Works 2.0 and the output will be Heveltica.

	Any suggestions or advice will be deeply appreciated.
It's been 8 years since I last used an IBM pc so I thought
it would be much easier to ask for advice on the net.
Please e-mail to my address below with your replies.

	By the way, he is also looking for 1-meg bit chips.
He's got this mother board which has 9 socket columns to
make 1 x 9 (1 meg parity memory) and it takes each one
of the 1-meg bit chip individually.  If anyone knows of
a good source, please let me know.  I am so spoiled by
the SIMM chips that I am at a loss of telling him where
to find additional memory.

	thanks in advance for your help.

	Best regards,

	Benson M. Wu
