View, CA Lines: 15 I've followed this thread about Macintalk for a few days now and think that its gotton out of hand. My personal opinion is that if Macintalk dies under System 7, so much the better. Macintalk was so crude and hard to listen to and was of such poor quality, I find it strange that everyone is defending with such fervor, a piece of software that is not worth it. To me the demise of Macintalk is a good thing, it will allow either the third party, or Apple to eventually create something better, and until that comes along, I can live without it quite nicely... -- Norm Goodger SysOp - MacInfo BBS @415-795-8862 3Com Corp.
