A2 FAQ addition/update req.

[tturner@ecn.ab.ca ()]

--> Thanks, Rubywand, for posting the current A2 FAQs.  Much
    appreciated by many, I'm sure (and I do not mean to ignore
    the obvious efforts of all the others who've contributed to
    these excellent FAQs).

    An observation and a question:

    In section #5 (CDROMs), there is no clear (at least, to me)
    info in regards to the 8-bit Apples - specifically, to the
    Apple IIe - as to whether a CDROM drive can be utilized by
    or with an A2E system.  The focus on the IIgs and the lack
    of details specific to the 8-bit A2 (other than a passing
    reference to ProDOS 8 and, further on, to Apple IIs) leads
    me to presume that it may well not be possible to utilize
    a CDROM directly in/with an Apple IIe system; but it would
    be nice to have clarification in this section of the FAQ.

    The question: Is it possible to have a new section added
    to the A2 FAQs, that covers A2 Networking possibilities?

    What I've seen, seems to indicate that (once again) the IIgs
    is the prime candidate for this; but that the best results
    (not withstanding LANce, etc.) require a Macintosh `bridge'
    in order to maximize bi-directional communication and file
    processing capabilities (ie: copy/delete/create/read/write).

    I'm generalizing (always a dangerous thing to do); but this,
    in itself, seems to indicate that A2 networking info could
    be acknowledged in the FAQ, for the benefit of all.  I know
    that FAQs are a lot of time/work/effort and that it's far
    easier to make such a request, rather than fulfill it; but
    I thought I'd ask, anyway . . .
