Previously I pointed out how a new and improved IIgs will make no difference
at this point, but one thing that I might add is that there still is a minute
chance that a new IIgs will do something for the market and bring back the
developers.  Just releasing a new IIgs will NOT EVER do the job, but it would
take the strong effort by Apple to promote the machine and it's software. 
Apple isnt doing sh*t right now, and that's why the IIgs is dead.  If they
actually went out and promoted their machine like Amiga does, then it is
possible that developers/companies would give the machine another shot.  The
future still looks grim because I seriously doubt that Apple has the balls to
do it.
