And of course, Apple will charge Sears with re-vitalizing the machine.

"Sell the damn thing as much as you can!  We don't care if it cuts into our
attempts at turning the K-12 market into a Mac market."

And of course, the highly knowlegeable sales personell at Sears (who may
have been selling toasters yesterday) are going to push it on any
unsuspecting dweeb who shows up looking for a computer 'cause JR. needs one
for his 5th grade papers.  This sales person isn't going to dump a
cheap Apple II on this guy, he's going to throw a high _*PROFIT*_ machine
at him.

Reality is such a bitch sometimes.
