Forgive me, I post too much in a row, I just read things, then I like to
respond to them.

I don't think that Apple Computer, Inc. will cut the IIgs for a while,
because of the money they have put into it.  It's the most powerful Apple
II, 65816 processor, 2.8 Mhz (although it is slow) 1 Meg of RAM, etc...

There seem to be MANY employees of Apple COmputer, that seem to specialize
in Apple II.  I talked vioce with Matt Deatherage & Jay Schafer (author of
the Installer), and we have met Dave Lyons here.  I know there are MORE,
look at Andy Nicholas.  All these people do something with an Apple IIgs. 
I can understand why  they cut the IIe.  It's VERY obsolete 1 MHZ, 65c02
processor, etc.  With the IIgs being able to run most IIe software anyway. 
Then they modified the IIc into the IIc+  Which didn;t last long, because
the only MAIN difference is the 4 MHZ, and builtin 3.5" disk drive.  Well
the IIgs uses a 3.5" disk too.  I wouldn
I would NOT be supprised if Apple cut the IIgs, and I would NOT be
supprised it they DIDN'T.  I just think there are too many Apple IIgs
employees....
