   Does anyone have any perceptions of the MACINTOSH they
are interested in sharing? I am particularly interested
in:
   1. Will it be able to take a hard disk? Via the serial
port or the second floppy port? If serial, will it be
ffast enough?
   2. Only 128k main memory. Can virtual memory be used
thru seriaal port and will that work for DBMS's?
Some systems require minimum of 500 K.
   3. How good is MACWRITE?
   4. If you don't want to draw pictures, is 
MACPAINT of any value?
