Re: Couple of //e Questions....

[marvinisnot@home.com (Marvin Miller)]

Thanks for the reply! Couple more...I'm almost there..

-Is the Imagewriter II the best printer apple made?

-Is there any drawback to using the Apple 1 meg memory card over the
AE one?

-What was the best soundcard? (most compatible & most advanced?)

If you can think of anything else, I'd appreciate it. I'm trying to
build the 'dream //e' and than just run all the old games and stuff I
liked etc. If possible, I'd like to keep it stock.

Oh ya, last question, does anyone have a tcp/ip stack for it? 

Best;
Marvin Miller
