.I don't understand the rumor, as Apple spokesmen have also said that they
.planned to introduce no new Apple II models.  However, I hope it's true..

	I already mentioned in another post why I thought a lot of 
the points in this latest rumor were even MORE bogus than past rumors..
(Bogus as in unbelievable and "less likely" to be true)

	But to be REALLY REALLY REALLY picky, I believe the Apple spokesman
said something to the effect of "We have no plans to introduce new 
standalone Apple IIs this year".. Or maybe they didn't even say "this year"..
It was mentioned that those plans may change though..

	My picky point.. doesn't July start a new FISCAL year?

.Release of a new Apple II computer by Apple would certainly make fools
.out of those software chains who said they stopped stocking Apple II
.software because Apple had discontinued the product line.  However, the
.damage has probably already been done.

	Both of your points here are very valid..
