Mereness") Newsgroups: comp.sys.apple Subject: ]['s on Computer Chronicles Message-ID: Date: 21 Nov 88 03:07:53 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 23 Last sunday, the local Pittsburgh PBS station aired an edition of the Computer Chronicles that featured the Apple ][. Notably they were discussing the //c and GS/OS. A little behind the times, perhaps, but this program usually focuses on the latest PC hardware and all types of office stuff. It was pretty heartening that they said something about the //. Further, in an interview with John Sculley, John said that the // would continue to play a prominent role because he recognizes that a great number of users still like to "get right down to the bare chips." It's a pity that there wasn't a GS plus to show off for the viewers, but I find this encouraging anyway, esp. because Sculley seems to recognize that there are still // users out there, many using GS's and //e's to keep their businesses going (he talked about this). But I am happiest that he mentioned that the // is a machine that is designed to be open and hackable. Capt. Albatross jm7e+@andrew.cmu.edu
