I agree, it is hard to make a site look nice. After working on it for a while,
I've gotten used to the color scheme. It's much easier on the eyes than
the way I had it set up originally, which was basically all white, with
blue text -very garrish. Sellem saw it before. He'll vouch.

The MPF-II is surpisingly compatible with the Apple II, at least running
DOS 3.3 anyway. I'm going to write up a small article on it, and put it
through it's paces, etc. I haven't tested any add-on cards on it yet,
and I'm not even sure that it's pin compatible with the Apple II. It
probably isn't, since they produced a bunch of add-on carts for it,
including a disk controller cart. There are a couple of pretty good ads
for it in the advertising section.
