[a whole lot of bad things that we already expected.] People, just keep truckin'. Don't feel you have to migrate to another machine, don't give up on the //, just keep developing like we always have. We know we have the more fun machine, we have better tools, color, and all the neat and stupid things the mac does like networking, funny beep noises, and nude desktop backgrounds ;-) Orca C 1.1 has arrived. So have tons of nice shareware. Great games, Appleworks GS, and other good stuff. If you think the machine is slow, buy a Transwarp or a Zip when it comes out. Try the RAMFast SCSI, and buy lots of DMA memory. A loaded //gs can do some incredible things while still being the same open box we are used to. Dammit, I love my Apple //. As long as there are people who don't agree with the Apple Execs who think they should dictate how people should use computers, the Apple // will do just fine. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |Jeremy Mereness | Support | Ye Olde Disclaimer: | |jm7e+@andrew.cmu.edu (internet) | Free | The above represent my| |a700jm7e@cmccvb (Vax... bitnet) | Software| opinions, alone. | |staff/student@Carnegie Mellon U.| | Ya Gotta Love It. | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
