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
