Feb. 17 issue of InfoWorld has article stating that Apple, Inc. is
shipping a the new Apple //, based on the 65C816(8/16 bit 6502) micro-
processor, to developers. The system is code named "Gumby".

Not only is this system compatible with all Apple // software, also the
65C816 supposedly has a 68000 emulation mode which will allow the system
to execute Macintosh software. The system is being shipped with 3 1/2"
media.

Has anyone else on the net heard anything about this system? Earliest
availability? Price? Other features?
