Reading that the GS (not the iie upgrade) came with a mouse and 3.5 800k drive. That true?
From much earlier - back to the 20-pin header days. Think Micro-Sci, Rana Systems.When did the third-party drives become available? I have a Jameco drive that was a lot cheaper than one from Apple, but I don't if they were available this early.
Yeah, that's why I put "everybody" in quotes.Interesting. "Everybody" I knew was using AppleWriter (circa 1983).
AppleWorks was released in 1984, so that might have somthing to do with it.Interesting. "Everybody" I knew was using AppleWriter (circa 1983).

It's BBS Policy that the Ford V Chevy arguments stay in meatspace with the Banhammer falling on anyone breaking that rule.
However there will be... ah... 'spirited' debates on the matter.
I think that's pretty accurate, given the timeframe. It's probably better to specify AppleWriter.P.S. I don't remember too many people using AppleWorks pre-1987. Doesn't mean it didn't happen; it just means I didn't witness it. Everyone I knew was still using AppleWriter (I personally still used Bank Street Writer until 1987).
