We've never officially announced or released MZ 1.0, shockWave, or anything
else.  I haven't even really mentioned that they're in development in a post.
Mitchell Spector has, which is okay too since MZ 1.0 is ready to ship except
that I've been waiting on art from him for something like 18 months (and 
people think I'm impatient :)

Rich and I have no problem with other computers.  I've been using FastTracker
and ScreamTracker 3.01 on a Pentium-90 for a while now.  Excellent reference
materials, to be sure.

Trust me, we realize this better than ever.  The GS community seems to
be split 3 ways:

1) Programers, who are trying to stab other progammers in the back
2) Users, who are trying to stab the programers in the back even harder.
3) Smart people, who now own a Pentium or PowerMac or UNIX workstation and
   laugh at 1) and 2).
