I heard a rumor on a local Mac BBS that Claris has some super-apps up its
sleeve.  Does anybody have any additional information?

Since Apple owns a major portion of Claris, will this fact show up in terms of
7.0 'friendly' applications?  Wouldn't it be nice to have MacWrite 7.0, MacDraw
7.0 etc.. which can publish and subscribe?  (and maybe a spreadsheet too that
combined with the hypothetical new versions of write and draw would tear down
MS Word and Excel...!)

Please Claris, create an entire line of 7.0 apps that will take back some of
the market from Billy Boy Gates...
