A couple of weeks ago, I called Olduvai Software in Florida about their HC
clone called PLUS.  I asked if I could use Focal Point II with PLUS.
(Naturally,) Their response was "No problem, PLUS deals with HC stacks totally
transparently."  Not being one of soft head, I went to my local Mac-only soft-
ware store to try this out on one of their machines.  (Naturally,) It failed
to work.  The friendly store personnel couldn't discover the problem either.

I guess Olduvai's definitions of "No problem" and "totally transparent" are
different than mine.

(Naturally,) I am not a PLUS owner (much less a dissatisfied one).  At least
the SuperCard people told me over the phone Focal Point II would not work with
SuperCard.
