*****FLAME ON*****
OK, I call your hand. Who says this? Where? I wan't verbatim quote from
*Apple* (NOT MACWEEK) which says anything like this. Every version quoted
claims to make bug fixes on machines listed as needing a lower version.
Does Apple just fix bugs on these systems for their health? This sounds
like it is just rumor.

I say again, as I've said before: almost all "bugs" that appear in Apple
operating system software that is out for more than a week are usually
bad programming on the part of application programmers and NOT MacOS
bugs. If what you and others have been saying is, as I believe it
to be, just rumors, I wish it would stop. If it is not, I want to see
it in PRINT from Apple. Actually, I would like to see it in print from
Apple either way.
