Just as a thought...

If you folks (and probably most of you do think this) think that the IBM-PC
is old outdated equipment, then what does that make the Apple II?

At some point in time, you must give up the old software you have and move
onto a new machine with new software.  The arguement that you need to be
compatable with the old software holds weight as long as there is software
that is worthwhile and up to current software standards available.  At some
point though it just isn't going to be there.

By the way, this isn't a poke at Apple II owners.  I was one.--
