On the other hand, it would have been nice for Apple to have made sure that
all of its own products worked under System 7 on May 13.  The 8.24GC card
didn't.  MacX doesn't, and there isn't going to be an upgrade until 
August, and then we get to pay $95 just to have the program work again.
At least when MicroSoft charges $130 for an upgrade you get increased
functionality!
