For what it's worth, I just recently purchased the same package. No doubt
about it, it hasn't changed. The Kanji version can be made to work marginally
on a Mac II, when in one-bit mode. But since it's based on System 3.x, I
wouldn't really trust it. (Mac II requires System 4.1 or later, I believe.)

I have exchanged notes with some folks at Apple on this subject. Apparently,
there IS a Mac II compatible version in use in Japan. Apple's Evangelism is
surprised that APDA is still selling such old stuff. Apple's APDA has not yet
replied to my queries.

I, too, am looking for an updated version. It is rumored that a version based
on System 6.0 will be available soon.
