   Gee Wizz. Does TWGS'ed Mac IIfx mean an accerated (sp?) Mac or a GS with
a TWGS board? Just wondering.
   
   It's not that Apple II technology isn't competitive (a well equiped GS
is on par with a fast '386 running Windows, yet a GS can be purchased as
minimal as a fast //e), it's just that Apple can't set a reasonable price
or market the machine. For the least advertised PC of all time to sell for
14 years (so far) is beyond anything I could have ever imagined before
II-dom. The II is especially well suited to some applications because of
superior performance in area like high speed disk access and sound synth.
   I don't expect the II to last "forever", but the year 2000 isn't
unreasonable.
