Well, to add a little fuel to the fire....
 
Murph Sewall's most recent VAPORWARE column in info-mac digest
contained a snippet claiming that Apple was negotiating with
third-party types to sell the mac ROMs to them for development
purposes; it also cautioned that these would almost certainly
be old ROMs, 128K or maybe even (gasp!) 64K....I can dig out the
putative source if anyone is interested, but the thing is, see,
there might be a market for low-end mac clones developing in a
few years.
 
But remember, it's only VAPORWARE. Caveat emptor.
