I also use my Apple //gs extensively.  (For Financial management, word
processing, and aprox. 50% time for education of my children.)

I enjoy working with it.  I'm not going to buy a Mac.  I have far too
much s/w & h/w invested in the Apple // line to change.  But I will
continue to upgrade, change, and buy new software for my Apple.  My next
purchase will probably be an AE's Transwarp GS.

In my mind, the Apple // is not dead and never will be.  Of the people I
know, they feel the same.  If Apple sees things differently they are either
bind, or not looking.  However, I don't think this is the case.

There was some statement I heard about, (in some Mac Magazine, I think)
which said Apple would drop the //'s for Mac's only, but I don't believe it.

I didn't see the original post note on this.  Yours is all I can respond
to.
