I want to know the answer to the following question:
How many companies did Apple promise were develping products for the new computer?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Only about ten applications including MacWrite and MacPaint were widely available, although many non-Apple software developers participated in the introduction and Apple promised that 79 companies including Lotus, Digital Research, and Ashton-Tate were creating products for the new computer.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
