I agree with you, **provided** that Apple also supports our older machines.
 I have a Plus, but wouldn't cry if Apple started creating System II, only for
68030s and above.  As long as they kept fixing known bugs in the 68000 System,
that would be fine.  You're right--if they keep supporting the 68000 Classic,
SE, and Plus, they might be crippling their business.
