[Coco] Magazines and Indexes

[John Donaldson]

I think the early MM/1's owners got a better deal than the later owners. 
Mine was one of the earlier models and not only did I get a copy os 
Sculptor but a complete set of OSK Manuals too. I also got a lot other 
programs too. Can not at present remember the others.
You might contact Dave Kelly. He has my old MM/1.
