    Two more IIgs titles to add to the above: The System 6 Golden Master 
from Apple Computer and YourWordBox! from an educational company in 
Belmont, California. I would guess both are now out of print, as is

    Golden Orchard II should be available sometime this Fall, although
that date could be premature.
