   Let's not forget MODE-32. There's no reason to be so sniffy about refusing
to consider 3rd-party products that do precisely what you wanted Apple to do.

   Remember also that the cost of a s/w-only patch is probably much, much 
less than that of cutting new ROMs.  If you aren't willing to spend $99 on
MODE-32, how likely are you to purchase a (more expensive) ROM upgrade?
