Yeah..right! I'll wait to see a published II version.

I wonder how Andy programmed this? Huh? Any suggestions? Go ahead and explain
to me how code generated using 65C02 assembly is EASILY portable "with very
little change" to the Macintosh or IBM platforms...This I want to hear...Sorry
bud, but the Motorola 68000 series is just a little differnet than the 6502
series processors and porting code from the 6502 to the 68000 was, last time
-I- checked, a royal pain in the ass and not worth the time considering the
decent C compilers available on the Mac.

Point is, your way misinformed. Are you the same idiot that claimed LLUCE was
a MultiLine BBS system under ProDos 8? And that you could have two people
sharing the same BBS system as long as you had...

1. A Macintosh Filserving
2. 1 II with A modem
3. A second II with a modem

Good...Stay there and be "awed". Just don't ever look at METAL or you'll
realize just how badly you have been ripped off by L&L.
