Why >shouldn't Apple do the same? You know, I'm starting to agree with this. At first I thought it was a lame idea, and still do to some extent.. It would be much better to have APPLE DEALERS to push the II and keep it in Apple Dealer stores, but that's an impossible dream.. So I guess putting them in Sears stores isn't that bad of an idea. Besides, the employees can't be much stupider than your typical Apple dealer! -- /unknown@ucscb.ucsc.edu Apple IIGS Forever! ULTIMA VI GS -mail me.
