Last week I tried to obtain the Apple IIGS System Disk 4.0 (GS/OS)
at damn near every Apple dealer in Silicon Valley (Apple's own
backyard), and not only had most not heard about it (although it
WAS described in a Dealer Bulletin dated 16-Sep-1988), but NONE
of them had any other than possibly packed with Apple IIGSes.
I also found that about half of the "authorized Apple dealers" in
the Yellow Pages were not really Apple II dealers for one reason
or another.  This suggests to me that Apple has a problem with
its dealerships.
