Really! we have now heard from TWO um apples? (and assorted NEAR apples) in his letter rick talks about the people who read but don't respond. WELL I'M ONE! but i can't keep quiet any more! for one reason, i can't go on reading 50 plus messages a day, when most of them are flames at Apple! I just want to talk APPLE! Mind you a lot of the _flames_ are good points and i hope that Apple listens! BUT the _suggestions_ could be put a little more Tactfully. (TACT? WAZ ZAT?) i have had my UNENHANCED apple //e for about 10 years now, and i am STILL happy with it! (Amazing ain't it?) and i hear people, with gs's complaining! i wish i could afford a new machine! BUT my bank keeps saying things like Pay your MORTGAGE payment first. then we'll talk! i read the Bell telephone stock holders report tonight! (yes i CAN read) BELL (canada) = US AT&T by the way they talk of the RETIRING "CEO". he is going to get a pension of 80k+ a MONTH! so if you want to complain! COMPLAIN about THAT! if I hear any more WHINING i'll get out my Violin! beware though! it is a small violin! ANYWAY! I feel a whole lot better now! :-) Thanks Rick for Speaking on the subject. you and the other fellow (who's name escapes me) put my confidence back in apple! and GUYS (all on the apple list) lets get back on the parade. things could be a lot worse. I know it's been about 3 years since we've seen // hardware from apple but lets face it... it is a lot easier to update something relatively new (MAC'S) then it is to upgrade and keep consistent a BEHMOUTH (did I spell that right) like the good ol' Apple ][. yes speed would be nice! BUT i can't afford it anyway! well untill i read the next stock holders report! GOODNIGHT and may all your dreams come true! (Apple //e enhanced?) (thats mine) :-) Stevens@Seneca Seneca College of Applied Arts & Technology I wrote "MY MOM" send me BUGS North York, Ontario, Canada I have a //e send me a beer Apples? WE don't got no Apples? This is Canada! any 3rd party or collect calls will be HUNG UP ON!!! :-)
