	I too would be interested in getting the now ROMs for my Mac II,
I need 20 Megabytes more than a speed upgrade (although I would not cringe
if Apple were to give me one for $300).

	Is there any kind (or in this case, not so kind) soul who could
organize this suit. I for one will not have as much access to the internet
as I would like, over the summer. I am not a lawyer (I am a struggling
student), and I this issue should be brought up on other networks, such as
Compu$pend, Genie, and AOL.

	Anyway, put my name on the list, as a person who wants 20 Megs to
work on my Mac II.
