Summary: Chinese/English/Japanese/Korean Word Processor -- Nisus
Date: 17 Aug 92 03:36:38 GMT
Distribution: usa
Organization: The Ohio State University

NISUS 3.06-040 (the latest version),  with the patch which can be 
converted it into 3.06J for Japanese, Chinese, and Korean word processing.

Bought four months ago at the educational price of $99 ($245 on street).

Registered.  Will transfer the title to the buyer.

Reason for selling:  Nisus loads the entire file into memory, but the
1,200-page book I'm writing is too much for the small RAM on my Mac SE.
I hadn't noticed it until the file grew big enough...

Will sell for $75 (I paid $108) -- just enough for me to get MS Word (not
so ideal for Japanse/Chinese/Korean word processing, but can load part of
the file and then swap).

Yes, I'll pay for the shipping.

Well, I have bought and sold Macs, as well as other machines.  Macs
retain their resale more than any other brand.  I don't know why
this is so.  You are right...many of the Mac prices are out of whack
(and are easy enough to spot a mile away even without Covert blathering
about them).  

But, I wouldn't expect to pay half the going retail amount
even for a several year old Mac.  It's not likely to happen.  I have
offered a Mac IIcx 2/40 for $1700, which is only $100 more than my
highest bid to date.  A good number of the bids were around $500-$800,
and I simply ignored them.  So perhaps these people are using your rule
of thumb, but they're not likely to find themselves proud new owners
of any used Mac equipment.

As for the educational discount, it's a decent guide when you're deciding
what YOU'RE willing to pay for a machine, but it's worthless as a guide
for what others should ask.  That should be common sense.  A good number
of people are unable to get the academic discount.

Well, mine runs "rings" around various PC clones in certain circumstances...

Seriously: If you can afford the maintenance contract on a 780 then you can
afford something newer (like a VAXstation 4000/90, or even a 3100.)  If you're

Wait a sec. What the heck is PB 145, PB 160, PB 180? I have only heard of PB

repost on the net, please. Thanks.
