What was the final manufacture date of Woz specials? I got my GS is March '87,
and to my surprize, it's a Woz. I haven't noticed any trouble with the display,
except some almost inperceivable fuzz on the blue screen of the Launcher. I
atrributed it to the monitor, but now I can't be sure. All of my equipment
is 100% Apple except the joystick (DC Hayes - I KNOW that it has no effect :-)
Anyone have any ideas as to how hardware updates will be handled?
