	So could someone please tell me what Steve Wozniak's participation
was in the Mac rollout?

	Did he ONLY drive a golf cart in with the new Mac w/IIe card into the
auditorium?? He didn't say anything? So then he left (the stage at least)
after he dropped off the Mac??

	I'm just curious. I saw a picture in the paper where Woz was driving
a golf cart and someone else mentioned it here. I just was wondering 
exactly what he did.

	I dunno... Woz always seemed to still be 'loyal' to the Apple //
over the Mac.. And he surely doesn't need the money.. So why'd he do this???
[God, I sure hope something doesn't happen that makes me lose my awe of
Woz! I started losing it for Jobs a few years ago when I found out he was
the person who started the death of the Apple // by slowing/cancelling many
projects to improve the Apple II.... This was around the time the Mac came
out]

	{Also weird that I may someday buy a NeXT from the person who 
hastened the death of my favorite computer. Unfortunately, the NeXT and the
Amiga seem to be the best prospects WHEN I FEEL I NEED A NEW COMPUTER. Even
if Apple officially said tomorrow the II was dead I wouldn't rush out and
buy a new computer.. But I'd want to buy another one sometime, even if it
were not NECESSARY. If I had the money, it'd be nice to buy a computer that
was 'wanted' and supported by lots of companies (Amiga specifically here)...
I am trying to get the GS wanted and supported currently... WRITE TO SOFTWARE
PUBLISHERS/AUTHORS WHEN YOU SEE/HEAR ABOUT A GOOD GAME ON ANOTHER COMPUTER! 
ASK FOR A GS or IIe VERSION! WE STILL NEED MORE LETTERS TO ORIGIN TO 
ABSOLUTELY make it clear lots of people want ULTIMA VI GS an ULTIMA VI //e}
