* September 1999 will end 10 years that Charlie's AppleSeeds has published and
sold ProSel and ProSel-16 for Glen Bredon. Demand for things Apple II is almost
nonexistent and for that reason, I asked for and was granted, by E-mail,
permission to announce that ProSel and ProSel-16 will be moved to the Public
Domain. (See Glen Bredon's message below) 

Upgrades by disk and new copies by disk will be $10, regardless whether it is
ProSel 8 or ProSel-16. This will cover my costs for materials, time and effort
and postage.

A copy of the manual will be $14. Book and ProSel-16 disk, $24. Postage is
included in all prices. I will split whatever net I get from this, with Bredon,
as usual.
