Abstract

Translate

Since the Xl1 windowing environment gives the user access to the Mac's terminal mode - not a good idea - NeoOffice may be a better choice for schools. o My favorite new program is EarthDesk 4 from Xeric Design, Ltd., which turns your desktop into a detailed and gorgeous satellite image of Earth. There are also tiny white dots on the map showing city lights at night, and the program shows accurate cloud cover information.
