- I would have to agree. Maverick is the best copier on the market for the 64.
- It can be obtained from Softwarer Support International at 1-800-356-1179.
- I've had good luck with them whenever I have needed something. Maverick has
- maxed out at version 5, but the catalog I received yesterday announced parameter
- module #12. They are also closing out their supply of RAMBOard's, so if you
- want one, now is the time to buy (29.95 for any version - previously as high
- as 49.95). I'm not trying to sound like a commercial, just trying to be
- informative.
