On October 15, 1989, The FreeSoft Company announced the impending release of a
new product, the successor to Red Ryder version 10.3. The new product,
interestingly enough, is called White Knight version 11.
White Knight takes strong advantage of the capabilities of the 128K ROM's,
which means that it will run on a Mac Plus, SE, II, or later machine. It will
not run on a 128K or 512K Macintosh. I doubt strongly that it will run on a
512KE (but should run fine if you upgrade that machine to one megabyte or more
of memory and use System software version 6.0.2 or later).
As always, we will support our existing customers with a moderately priced
upgrade path based upon 25% of the suggested retail price. The cost of the
upgrade from version 10 is $35.00. The cost of the upgrade for versions prior
to version 10 is $50.00. If you purchased version 10 on or after October 1,
1989, please send in a copy of your receipt (or other dated proof of purchase)
and we will give you the upgrade for just a $5.00 shipping charge ($10.00
outside of the United States).
