- I know that several people have asked this question before - but this
- thread came up again in applications -
-
- Rumor (who listens to these anymore :-) has it that C= might release a
- new version of AUX that support 040 and possible better X resolution
- through AGA - now I have a 3000 (but hopefully I can get an AGA card
- for it whenever those come out) ---- and I want to know if ANYONE has
- heard ANYTHING... ??? Anyone??
-
-
- Also - will stuff written for SVR4 (i.e. Word Perfect for UNIX) work
- on my A3000UX?? (Perhaps I should have included this in a separate
- post - I apologize - but hey - I just hate to waste screen space...
