We have found some extra funds that might go towards buying a Mac or two, and the following questions have come to mind: 1) If I use the Mac for typing documents, how easy/difficult is it to get them to my main computer (running 4.2) for printing? Any rumors about the date of the new laser printer and its price? 2) How easy/hard is it to program (say in BASIC); is it reasonably easy to use windows and access files? Are there any particularly good C compilers available yet? 3) If I use it as a terminal on my desk, how fast will it run to the mainframe (9600, 4800, ?)? Is MacTerminal a good package; are there better ones? 4) If I get a 128K Mac, how big a document can I comfortably work with (assume one disk drive)? Answers to these questions and any other info that might be helpful would be greatly appreciated. Ned Danieley Basic Arrhythmia Laboratory Duke University Medical Center duke!dukebar!ndd
