I wonder if Apple Computer, Inc. is just doing that to prevent people from
SELLING their computer.  There is no way I would sell my computer for around
$300.  I'll admit I'd like to own a MAC LC, but I would also like to keep my
IIgs.  I talked to a dealer a while back and I asked him if he thought Apple
would discontinue the IIgs line, and go to IIc+ and MACs.  He said he didn't
think so, but then he heard about the MAC LC (this was before they came out)
and he said I should sell that peice of *hit (this is a dealer talking) go
with a MAC LC when it comes out.  He said the same thing about my old IIc. 
After 7 years my IIc just wore out, so I got this fine machine.  I think
apple is afraid of losing the II line from people, so they droped the price
so low, so people wouldn't sell them.
