information:

      -- documents:  letters, memos, proposals, manuscripts,
         term papers

      -- lists:  name and address lists, itineraries, inventories,
         membership information, client lists

      -- numerical information:  budgets, tax records, sales forecasts

But we can show you how Apple II owners Harry and Nan Walker use a

Hundreds of companies sell application programs so it's just
not possible to demonstrate each one.

What we can do is demonstrate the capabilities of AppleWorks, an
