Message-ID: <298@generic.UUCP> Date: 19 Dec 90 06:50:04 GMT Sender: root@generic.UUCP Organization: People-Net [pnet91], Etobicoke, ON Lines: 18 Schools in my area seem to be going for Macs, primarily because Apple doesn't say ANYTHING at all about the Apple II. I had a wonderful experience today: I showed some teachers what THEIR Apple IIGS's could do, and they were both annoyed and bitter that they didn't know about this before.... One said "why weren't you around in June when I bought my Mac SE?" (The school has about 20 Mac+'s... all new, 2 IIGS's... one with the cruddy Composite colour... and about half a dozen IIe's...) Anyway, it was heartwarming to see that the IIGS can sell itself on its own merits, and that people who have no interest or care in Apple per se, can be shown how they are being deceived by an increasingly more slimy company.... I refer, of course, to Apple Canada. Stephen Brown.... Apple II Forever UUCP: lsuc!graham!pnet91!sb INET: sb@pnet91.cts.com
