- Hi Fellow Macers!
-
- I have a few questions that I hope you will be able to answer... at
- least try to!
-
- 1. Is it possible to run System 6.0.X on a Quadra (any one of them)?
-
- 2. Is there a utility which would permit me to run X-Windows on my
- Mac IIci? I am connected to a SGI Indigo at 9600 bauds (direct
- connect modem).
-
- 3. My boss, Professor Legendre, is undertaking a book on bio-stats.
- He would like to know which is the better DTP to use: PageMaker,
- FrameMaker or Nisus. His book will be about 400 pages and it
- will contain many mathematical expressions. He knows that in
- FrameMaker there is an equation editor.
-
- 4. Rumors wants that Apple will reveal new machines in November of
- this year... Should he wait for them or go for a Classic II?
-
- 5. Is there a co-processor in the LCII? Plus, is there an extension
- slot in it?
-
- 6. About laser printers now... should we go for another LaserWriter
- II NT or go for HP, Texas or any other brand? The volume of
- paper printed is not that important... as long as the printer is
- ps compatible. By the way.. could you tell me what is the
- difference between ps and eps?
-
- 7. Another Professor is planning to buy a IIci... shoud he go for
- one plus an accelerator or go for a Quadra? Speaking of
- accelerator... which is the best (understand more reliable) on
- the market? Is it Daystar or Radius or Tokamak?
-
-
-
- I know I could ask all those questions to my nearest Apple
- dealer... but the thing is that they are sellers! I am more
- sensible to end-users opinions, not just "Yeah.. buy this.. it's
- the best of this and that...". Real world users are much valuable
- than any (car/mac!) sellers!
-
- I thank you all in advance...
