First, I don't think I understand why this Mac system software release
was cross-posted here to comp.sys.apple--this is the //-oriented group.

But I'm glad they did because it gives me a chance to point out:
although the Apple people on the net who work with the // say they can't
tell us ANYTHING at all about Apple's directions for the //-line, in the
Mac section, they are telling us their plans for the next 2 years!  And
details too!  I hope this double-dealing by Apple eventually catches up
with them and teaches them a lesson.

I mean, if the // is really going to be dumped--just say so!  Leading us
on hoping for a //gs+ won't help any at all if it never materializes.

So, since we now know where Apple is taking the Mac, can someone please
tell us where the // is going?

[And note I didn't cross-post this to the mac conferences--what do they
care about the //?...]
