Re: Apple II GUI

   On a IIc, II Desktop runs over twice as fast as Mousedesk 2.0.  I did 
a side by side comparison using 2 - IIcs.  They may look similar but II 
Desktop seems smoother in operation where Mousedesk seems to choke if you 
move too fast.

:    A minor note, MouseDesk (version 2.0) was included as part as System 1.0,
: Apple II Desktop replaced it in System 2.0.
