Spectrum™ is a telecommunications program written specifically for the Apple IIgs. It uses the standard Apple IIgs “desktop interface” so it’s powerful, yet easy to learn and use.

The simplicity of the IIgs desktop interface, and the memory available in the IIgs, allows many features in Spectrum that are not practical in ordinary communications programs.

A powerful scripting language allows Spectrum to be tailored specifically for individual use. Scripts can do almost anything, ranging from emulating an electronic bulletin board to the daily automatic logging, sending and retrieving of mail.

Spectrum is an expandable program that allows access to many different “host” computers and systems. In addition to the standard Super Hires screen display, Spectrum can use an 80 column text screen display. Additional “drop in” displays are also provided (ANSI, ProTERM™ Special, Viewdata, VT100, etc.).

Our goal was to make Spectrum a very useful tool so it would be valuable to you. By making a quality program available at a reasonable price, we think we have succeeded.

Apple IIGS 8MB RAM

Memory Expansion IIGS8MRAM cards allows you to increase the Random Access Memory (RAM) capacity of your Apple IIGS. RAM is the memory that can beboth read from and written to-the addressable (user useable) memory. Many programs automatically look for and use available RAM to give them more room to operate (desktop space). Many programs load themselves into the available RAM at start up. This greatly increases their performance because it reduces or eliminates the need to access the relatively slow mechanical floppy drives.
