-- stuff snarling about lack of NuBus (agree; silly) snapped off --

Looks to me like Apple is securing its low-end computer line.  Leave the
Mac line to all the hackers and busines people who feel they can afford it.
Any silly people who want a high-powered computer at a low price may go sit
in a corner and wail.
  Flames aside, the student prices for the SE/30 do seem really good -- but
it also seems like a deadend machine.
