I'd watch thee people, when I first got an Apple IIe they charged me 
$12.00 for a sytem master disk. I found out later I coulda got the same 
disk from an local Apple II user group for $2.00. The people at the user 
group were kinda mad when I told them I'd just paid $12.00 for it.

keep on computin' (on a II of course),
