Yes! I remember their stuff and still have fun poke-ing around with it.
I believe they quit producing software for the Apple ][, ][+. I also
heard that Beagle Bros. has a bulletin board that you can call and download
their old (][, ][+) software for free (except for the long distance phone
charge). It is NOT in the public domain, nor can you get technical
support for it -- but the programs are there for the downloading and
enjoying.
I don't know the phone number of the BBS, but a call or letter to them
should net the number for you.
