Back in October, when I was at the local (Columbus) version of the product rollout for the Classic, LC, and IIsi, I asked one of the Apple Reps the selfsame question - namely, are there plans to market a NuBus version of the Apple Card that is being made for the LC? They replied, quite prudently, "We are not in a position to comment on unreleased products at this time." Where does the LC's Apple Card leave the IIe/c/c+? Out in the cold, where they should've been a number of years ago. This doesn't mean that development for them will stop, since Apple programs will still be used on the IIgs and the Apple Card, but I doubt we'll see those particular CPUs for much longer... -- Jim Gaynor - Systems Analyst 1 + "This is Serious.
