: Great!  I would also like PCT System Software GS, to let the 80186
: emulation access more than 640K and emulate EGA (VGA with the SS
: card).  While we're at it, ProTERM GS would be nice.  :)

I consider GraphicWriter III 2.0 to be the GS dtp software of choice. (I
also own Publish It!4, but dont' use it anymore). GWIII is under continued
development. If there's any feature you want, get your votes into Seven
Hills.

Speaking of which, a ProTerm GS wouldn't be that much different in
features from Spectrum 2.1, would it? How about Spectrum with the Internet
Suite and Crock O'Gold? And the "Top Hat" XCMD for letting Spectrum Telnet
(if Marinetti is available in your system).
