If you bought 5.0.x in a box instead of upgrading, you got two very nice
manuals that go into excruciating detail about how to use the software on the
system disk and how to use the network software.

each chapter has a neat picture of a GS doing something -- if Apple's marketing
and evangelism departments would just wake the hell up instead of spouting
'only macintosh... only macintosh...' pablum in their sleep, we might see some
real software action for once.

releasing a ROM 04, or at least promising one, would also help...
