(1) I recently purchased a PCjr and have come quickly to the realization that if I want to do any serious software development I will need a couple additional peripherals. Namely, a 2nd drive (floppy or hard) and a printer. I was wondering if anybody out there in netland could recommend a good price for a 2nd drive and a printer, not necessarily to be purchased together. (Note: I have the TECMAR 128K captain board already so additional memory isn't high on my list of addons). (2) I was wondering what is the best deal for a C-development package that will work on the JR; I already know that there are are several C packages for the 'regular' PC. (3) I just read a rumor on the net that Borland (makers of what is considered a great PASCAL system; TURBO PASCAL) is about to come out with a TURBO-C. Does anybody have any more details about this and will it be available for the PCjr? (4) Finally, I know ROGUE is available for the IBM PC. Will this run on the JR and where can I get it? Thanks, in advance for all those kind enough to reply, Warren S. Lobel Exxon Office Systems Princeton NJ
