Yeahbut your Plan B still won't get back your NW4
documents in their former glory, and everything
back of NW6.5 will be lost 4eva.
Unless of course, we can convince philistines
such as yourself, Brian Ferguson, and the entire
Nisus developer team, that the shining lights of
the past should not be replaced by the glaring
examples of the present.
Just ask James May ( http://tinyurl.com/3j2pcak
), a true connoisseur who understands that his
LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman model train
engine "with realistic chuffing sound" - has no
equal.
Likewise, proper computers have ADB ports
allowing an Apple Extended Keyboard II "with
realistic clacking sound" - to be connected. (And
what's more, they can run Nisus 3 under System 6
off a single floppy.)
I rest my case.. AD
