	Both LightSpeed C and LightSpeed Pascal require the 128K or
later ROMs, so they won't work on the current 64K ROM Magic Sac.
The updates made to LightSpeed Pascal for the Mac II were not
related to what ROM version it requires.  Turbo Pascal doesn't require
the 128K ROMs so it will run on the current Magic Sac.
