I agree. Bryan Smart is trying to start another flame war and I hate flame
wars. Why be so nasty, Bryan? The IIgs will be alive for quite a while, and
from what I hear, MODZap v1.0 will be out just as soon as the graphics are
done. shockWave, another update, will be out much later, but it will be
able to do other formats. As for MPW, I do in fact know of several IIgs
programmers that use MPW almost exclusively, and I will not name names, but
I do in fact use Orca/M assembler exclusively.

As for IBM compatibles and Macintoshes, they are nice computers. But please
do not say that the IIgs cannot do most of what they do, because in fact the
IIgs can. I'd also like to remind you that 286 is very slow and most of them
have graphics that aren't as good as the graphics on the IIgs. So ha!
