  I was bored one night and decided to look through the SE/30 stack that
Apple gave dealers.  Tells you everything you ever wanted to know about how
a marketing department see's the SE/30.  Too bad the marketing dept. did this
and not the people who know the SE/30

  Well anyway's they have this section that compares IBM's Compacts and the
Macintosh SE & IIx to the SE/30.  Well I never knew this, but according to
the SE/30 stack the Macintosh SE has:

  a 10 mhz 80386 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Gosh and I thought Apple didn't use intel processor's in their product line.
No wonder system 6.0 and the SE broke so many applications.  So the 80386
has a standard graphics enviroment, hmm guess I'll trade in my expensive
SE in on a cheap 80386 clone, now that I can run Macintosh software on it.

  Oh well, life in the fast lane.

  Thankyou Apple, I was kinda depressed before reading your stack.  But after
reading the stack I got the best laugh of my life and I feel much better
now. :-) :-)
