re: Apple II stamp



 Alberto Roffe made the whip sing this tune:

 a| In the last issue of Nibble Magazine (July 1992) appeared a letter
  | from an organization called Alliance International in which it
  | announced that it would request to the US Postal system to issue an
  | Apple II stamp.
 a| I know it's been 3 years since then but, does anyone remember what
  | was the outcome of that request?

US Postal regulations say that a stamp cannot be issued until the
featured subject is dead.  Despite the knife in the back and the cement
shoes Apple Inc. bestowed upon the // line, it's still alive and thus
does not qualify for postage immortality.

How's THAT for a tongue-in-cheek reply?  :)
