Bullshit. Last year, the Apple sold $450 million worth of Apple II equipment. While this may not be as high as the $1 billion from 2 years ago, it is still significantly high. And recognize that these sales were made despite the fact that Apple has not been promoting the Apple II at all and had even been promoting the Mac over the Apple II to the educational market. BTW, Apple has lost educational market share for the past four consecutive years. Please send all replies to: INet: zoo.toronto.edu!generic!pnet91!ronl or : ronl@pnet91.cts.com
