If you read the new motherboard upgrade pricing press-release, you'll
notice that Apple says that the upgrade will provide 32 bit addressing
to users of the target machines, (II, IIx, IIcx). Does this mean that
Apple is saying we will have to upgrade to get the new addressing capability?

I'm not prepared to shell out an additional $1500 for this. It's beginning to
feel like 'bait and switch' time.

What do you think? How much more pressure is necessary?
