Re: Flat-panel Apple II ???

["Vince Briel" <vbriel@attbi.com>]

I have an iPaq that I run an Apple II emulator on, and I like it.  The
screen is rotated 90 deg for better print.  I haven't tried any 80 col text
yet (interesting), but the keyboard is done on screen and you have to use a
stylus.  This makes Wolfenstein pretty much out of the question.  At least
you get joystick support to play some games.  The one drawback is you can't
writeprotect the disk images, so Wizardry won't play.
