Dave,
 
This is a very late response to your 23 March message asking Rick for  
information on the Ultimate Rom II.
 
Knowing how busy Rick is, perhaps I can relieve some of his load by putting in
a plug for this ROM chip. I have one, purchased from Rick several years ago.  
It is well worth the money. The small character mode permitting longer lines  
of text display is a big help. That and the wordprocessor alone are worth it.  
The wp has a neat preview mode that is quick and handy. 
 
The other progroms on the chip were less useful to me, but I did find the  
database program of some value. 
 
My Model 100 equipped with this chip, plus a disk drive and a basic 9-pin  
Panasonic printer was all I had for my basic computer during a year and a half
project in Mexico, and I did just fine with this setup.
 
I hope this helps answer your questions about the Ultimate Rom II... let me  
know if you need more detail.
 
Regards,
 
 ... Paul
