@Bil - so you're confirming that a Micro Illustrator ROM option was on the table at one point?
This is news to the rest of us -- it was our understanding that all the "ready for market" ROM options were released as cartridges over 30 years ago. We scoured the marketing materials, we looked closely at the pre-release magazine articles ... and Micro Illustrator was never mentioned as a ROM option.
The Plus/4 community has seen other software homebrewed into a Plus/4 ROM, such as Compute!'s Speedscript. So it's not impossible for someone to have homebrewed MI into a ROM too, which was the brunt of my question yesterday.
