As to whether there is software for it...I just received a catalogue of DEC PC software available from DEC. It lists about 50 packages which seem to include all the latest and greatest including 1-2-3 and Microsoft Windows. I don't know how there can be anything BUT software for the stupid system, it runs CP/M in adition to MS-DOS (I mean real old-fashioned 8bit CP/M) and I know that there's a lot of software available for generic CP/M. >From what I can tell the Rainbow seems to be short only in the game software department. Anyway, why buy a Rainbow? Get a Rainbow 100+. It makes more sense. -- Gary Wasserman ...harpo!inmet!grw ...hplabs!sri-unix!cca!ima!inmet!grw ...yale-comix!ima!inmet!grw ----------
