A friend of mine attended an Apple presentation, within the last week, for
the purpose of learning about future workstations.  The customer was
potentially a LARGE user of same.  Nonetheless, Apple would not even hint
at when A/UX might be available (thus effectively losing the sale).

This makes me wonder how real A/UX is, as a product.

Previous postings with respect to Toolbox support also make me wonder if
improvements to Quickdraw (such as those announced by Andy Herzfeld) will
be supported under A/UX.  It would be a shame if the OS development diverged
to the point that you could have good tools, or speed, take your pick.
