The latest magazine to >give up on the APPLE II line is Computer Shopper. Gone are Don Lancaster's Really makes you wonder what's going on. Especially when Computer Shopper has sections devoted to real dinosaurs like the TRS-80 and Timex Sinclair. Maybe there is a conspiracy in the computer to blackball or get rid of Apple, possibly in reaction to there look-and-feel lawsuits? Apple II computers must be in the top five for number in use (I would expect number they are #3 behind Mac and IBM, correct me if I'm wrong) but one would assume from the lack of industry support for it that it had already gone the route of the Commodore Pet and died.
