   According to a recent AppleLink mailing recently received by our Campus Rep
here at Swarthmore, "...to run System 7.0, you MUST have 2 megs AND a hard
disk...period...end of story!!! There are NO plans to support floppy based
systems!!!!" What does this mean? Will Apple stop building Macs with floppy
drives? Is this for real, anyway? WHAT'S GOING ON?
