Lines: 24 This kind of activity is quite annoying. It is rather apparent the Mac and its interface is popular, X Windows on UNIX, Windows/386 for IBMs, Amiga Emulators, Atari Magic Sac, etc. And now this glut of Macintosh Clone makers. It is no wonder that this is happening. I can't believe that (if this is the case), that some Apple employee would do this kind of thing. Doesn't show a lot of company pride and the desire to be #1 now does it? So why did they come to work there in the first place? Corporate spies maybe? I doubt it, since it would take awhile to get access to that stuff and be trusted with it. I hope that whoever did this childish stunt is apprehended and prosecuted to the FULL extent of the law, and that whatever damage has been done can be repaired. Has John Sculley or Jean Louise Gassee commented on this at all? .______________________________________________________________________________. | UUCP: {amdahl!bungia, uuner!rosevax, chinet, killer}!orbit!pnet51!granteri | | ARPA: crash!orbit!pnet51!granteri@nosc.mil | | INET: granteri@pnet51.cts.com | |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | This Mac Plus isn't mine, I'm just borrowing it, the IIX is in the shop. | !______________________________________________________________________________!
