Well, are they not suppose to keep making II's, they just are not going to
advertise them (make perfect sense to me (?))

Also, what about the article awhile back about Apple showing the IIgs off
down under, any truths to that, and if so, why is Apple doing it?

Would it?  I seem to recall being able to get either a MFM, RLL, or SCSI
within about $20 of each other.  Anyway, SCSI tends to be more reliable
then RLL or MFM.
