o Second Point have taken possession of the computers that Apple received as trade ins during a Performa promotion late last year. Included in the batch are a number of Apple IIgs cases (no keyboards or mice) which are selling for $25, monitors are also available for $25. There are very few with cards inside so these parts are mainly an insurance policy on your current gear. Give Second Point a call on 02-95566777.
o The Byte Works have now received permission to reprint some out of print Apple IIgs reference manuals previously published by Addison-Wesley. Laser printed copies of Toolbox References 1 & 2 (US$45 each), Toolbox Reference 3 (US$55), GS/OS, Hardware, and Firmware References (US$30 each) are being prepared. They will be printed on 8.5x11" paper with holes for a three ring binder. Contact The Byte Works for shipping costs.

o The Apple IIgs SIG is currently without a meeting place. The BBS will have the latest information. Make sure you check it, or call me, before turning up on Monday 10th March. If we do manage to find a venue then I plan to do a demonstration of how to use an Apple II to contact the club's BBS. I'll bring a spare modem too, so if you haven't got one you can borrow one.
o The Apple II community on Genie is gradually moving over to Delphi. One of the reasons for this is that Delphi has a cheaper pricing structure. Now is a good time to join them as they are all learning the new system together. Files from the database are in the process of being migrated to Delphi too. If you have internet access already, then you can subscribe to Delphi for the ridiculous price of less than US$40 a year. For this price Delphi will also host your own personal 10MB web page. See www.delphi.com for more details, or Telnet to delphi.com and enter JOINDELPHI at the username prompt. The Apple II people can be found using GO COM A2 from any Delphi prompt. If you've grown a disliking for comp.sys.apple2 recently, then you should try Delphi. The people there are very friendly and eager to help. A web browser which supports frames can also be used to visit the Apple II forum - follow the links from Members conferences to the computing section and finally Apple II.
