There are a number of applications which will let you use the old
quickdraw colors, for what that's worth.  For example, Silicon Press,
Cricket Draw, Cricket Graph, to name a few.  Anyone know of others?
There are probably lots of folks working on real color programs, but
that's gonna take a while.  The Boston MacWorld Expo ought to have a
few, but only by the folks who were seeded with prerelease hardware.
I'm working on a color chemical modeling program, but it's not gonna
be ready for a bit yet...

>Also, don't youse guys think it's time for comp.sys.macII?

Only if you can find anyone on the net who'd unsubscribe to comp.sys.mac
if we spend too much time talking about the Mac II.  Or were you joking?
