However, I hope it's true.. One thing I do not think we need to do here is speculate about a rumor. I beleive we just got done with a stream of posts about where rumors get us (nowhere). If something happen with the Apple II then great, but I do not think we should treat this as anything more then just rumor. No need to get your hopes up and then have them splattered all over come July when System 6.0 is released and no new Apple II come out. Don't get me wrong, I would really like to see a new unit, but I am not holding my breath over the possibility of it happening. In a latter post someone mention that they did not like the fact that the GS windows had a white background with black text. They thought it should be the other way around. I think not. User definable yes, but black windows with white text, no way. Neil - ------------ TBW (The Bird Watch) Sports - Baltimore Orioles! ------------- Neil M. Runyon | What is TWB Sports?
