You are right about the SE. They were a great little machine. If all you
are interested in is terminal emulation software (ClarisWorks comms module
does this) You can get a hold of Zterm from many Mac FTP sites. In fact I
seem to recall an FTP site at MSU that would probably have this necessary
Mac morsel. Zterm is free in the first instance and good value as shareware
in the second. The "About" screen on my copy of Zterm says you can contact
the author, David Alverson, at davea@xetron.com.
