Since Apple preannounced System 7.0 well over a year ago, they have been receiving all kinds of heat from Mac users about the new system disk (which, if I recall correctly, was "optimistically" supposed to be released sometime in March of this year). The Mac magazines are being to make jokes about appearance of this vaporware; and I am sure Apple is quite agitated about the whole thing... Personally, I would rather just hear about it through the normal "rumor channels", and see the final product when it's released. Lynda
