Hi there.  Any Apple /// user's out there?

How's it going?  Got any software or info that's generally useful and
shareable?  Know of any sources of such?

Do you all know of On Three, "The Company for Apple /// users" (P.O.
Box 3825, Ventura, CA 93006, (805) 644-3514).  They publish a monthly
magasine "devoted" to the Apple /// ($40 for 12 issues) and besides,
sell software (Lazarus /// - undeletes files, Uncopyprotect - backup
protected disks & "uncatalyst", Selector /// - program switcher, Desktop 
Manager - like Sidekick, Draw-On /// - like Macpaint, games, "disks-of-
the-month"), hardware (hard & floppy disk drives, clocks, mouse, memory),
discontinued software and documentation from Apple, even reconditioned 
Apple ///'s, AND T-shirts, sweat-shirts and caps.  They've been around
for four years or so and appear to me to be stable, competent, and reliable.
Standard disclaimers about not being involved with them apply...just a
satisfied customer who highly recommends this group to any Apple /// owner.

We have a couple of three's with Profile hard-disks and CPM Softcards
which are used primarily for Wordstar'ing.  A third is similarly equipped
but is about 50-50 CPM and SOS, used for data entry and processing.

If there's anybody out there I certainly wouldn't mind hearing from you.
(sarcasm, pity, insults -> .NULL ... sympathy welcome!)

Anybody want to sell an Apple ///?

Say, how about a net.micro.apple3  (just kidding...for now :-)
