[SET FLAME = SIMMER]

Yea, but the SE/30 was sold as a 32-Bit machine, and my manual clearly states
that I can install up to 32MB of memory when 4MB simms become available.
(I know they are available now, but the manual was written a few years ago)

Apple owes me at least the option to pay for a new set of ROMS! ROMS are not
the same as putting ABS brakes on a car. It is just a set of chips, more then
likely the same set that is in all of the machines since the IIci.

Of all of things Apple has done to make customers mad, this may be the only
one that may put Apple at risk for legal action. If a set of 32-Bit clean ROMS
isn't available on the day that System 7.0 ships, I for one will file suit
in Small Claims court.
