Guys,

	I know I mentioned this a Apple III owner here on the newsgroup, 
but I guess I'd better post a follow up.  A company called Titan 
Technolgies, back in the mid to late 80's had a card out called the Titan 
Three plus IIe which basically allowed the Apple III to run all Apple II 
software including the 128K ones, including Double-Hi res stuff.  The 
only stuff that might not have worked would be early programs that used 
non-standard 80-column cards.  I don't know if anyone has one out there, 
but if you have a III it probably will be worth it to find it.
