Macintosh Software for sale.  As far as I know, all the following are
current versions and work fine with System 7.1:

(1) DiskTop 4.0.2.  DiskTop is a replacement for and supplement to some
of the functions of the Finder.  From CE Software, rated "five mice" by
MacUser.  Vendor price $100; asking $25.

(2) WordFinder Plus.  Million-word thesaurus.  Easy to use, fast,
reliable, very helpful.  From Microlytics.  Asking $20.

(3) Elements of Style.  Desk-accessory version of Strunk and White
grammar rules.  Also from Microlytics.  Asking $10.

(4) Weight Loss Planner, Menu Planner, Executive Diet Helper.  From
Ohio Distinctive Software.  Asking $10 for the set.

(5) File Director 3.1 with Disk Tools.  "The ultimate file and
applications organizer" from Fifth Generation Systems.  Catalog $39,
asking $15.

(6) Pyro.  Customizable screen saver with lots of different
displays--aquarium, doughnuts, blocks, moving clock, multicolor
fireworks, many others.  From Fifth Generation Systems.  Catalog $24,
asking $10.

(7) CalendarMaker 4.0.  Full-function calendar-creation program from CE
Software.  MacWorld "World Class Award" winner.  Vendor price $60;
asking $35.

Also for sale:  Slightly dated Macintosh software.  Everything works
fine under System 7.1, but it's one notch below the vendors' latest
revision level.  In most cases you can buy the version I have and
upgrade it to the current version for less than the current "new"
price, so you get a chance to "test drive" it cheap, and get a bargain
on the current version as well.

(1) Quickeys 2.1.3.  Top-quality macro program.  This one does just
about everything a macro program can do.  Asking $25.

(2) American Heritage Dictionary 1.0.  Desk Accessory with dictionary,
synonyns, wildcard and boolean search capabilities, anagrams, etc.
Asking $15.

(3) RightWriter 3.1.  Grammar checker.  I lost the manual, but you
don't need it anyway.  Asking $15.

(4) Quickverse.  Locate texts from the NIV Bible (OT and NT) by
chapter/verse or word search.  This is an excellent program but was
"orphaned" when the vendor, Parsons Technology, got out of the Mac
business to concentrate on PC software.  No upgrade is available, but
it's really not necessary because it still works fine as is.  Paid $66,
asking $20.

(5) "Wet Paint"  Clip Art from Dubl-Click, volume 19:  MacTut.
Borders, animals, gods, people, and symbols from Ancient Egypt.  The
utilities included might be a bit out of date, but the pictures still
work just fine.  Asking $12.

Special deal:  Buy everything--all 12 packages--for only $150 plus
postage.

All original disks and manuals; you pay postage.  I'll send a letter of
transfer to the vendor as soon as I receive your check.  Satisfaction
guaranteed--if it doesn't work as advertised or you just don't like it,
send it back and I'll refund your money.

If you're interested, send email to blackjr@ucsu.colorado.edu, or call
James Black at (303) 786-0773.
