The time for revolution is near! Message-ID: <1990Oct12.025052.6730@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu> Date: 12 Oct 90 02:50:52 GMT Sender: news@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu (News) Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana Lines: 30 Dear Comp.Sys.Apple2 folk, I am privileged to be able to attend the Chicago area version of the Apple Product Announcement. John Sculley will be there live via satellite for all of us to hear. I will of course bring back a full report of the events. Word has it there will be a "surprise" for Apple II enthusiasts. Hopefully this will be better than the ROM 03 announcement. Also, I have no gauge as to how reliable this information is, so take it for what it's worth. Is there anything you folks would like me to say should it turn out that nothing worthwhile appears for the II? I'm sure a shouting match won't develop, but then, I'm a man of great patience but short temper. :-) On another note, someone mentioned that Apple stock had dropped from $50 to $25 since the introduction of the //fx. It's pretty obvious to the entire business world that Apple is following brain-dead marketing strategies. Everyone but Apple sees this. Oh well..(at least Commodore occasionally tries to fix its marketing!) -- Jawaid Bazyar | Blondes in big black cars look better wearing Senior/Computer Engineering | their dark sunglasses at night.
