Sad to see Beagle Bros go.  After so many years of moderate to good success
with the Apple II line, they switched to the Mac, inhaled the toxic fumes
eminating from the trace of Sculley left in it, and died a slow death.

I've given up hope on Apple and went and bought a PC clone (486) to do my
word processing (Wordperfect/WIN), spreadsheets (Excel), and DTP
(PageMaker).  Don't get me wrong, I still love my IIgs and didn't have the
heart to give it up (good thing too; I still use it all the time and still
enjoy having it).  Sadly, there just isn't any software for the IIgs that
can compare to the above listed programs.  I know they are available for
the Mac, but you'll NEVER see one of them in MY house!
