And now he's saying it was dead in 1977.  This is the computer
that was Time's "Man of the year" in 1983.  Actually, by writing
this article he is probably offending more readers than he thinks,
with many of the current Mac users having been former II users.

Yes, I'm afraid it must be.  This issue seemed to be Incider-ishly thin 
compared to the normal size.

And Frank is right...who cares what this guy says anyway...:)
