   that the earth is flat? Regardless of the pictures returned from

   I find it quite amazing that AppleII users can hang on to a computer
   that is not only dying, but has been dead for some time. And not only do
   they continue hanging on by what's left of their fingernails, they even
   defend Apple Computer. Absolutely, completely, amazing!!!

   First of all, Apple Computer promised to support the AppleII well
   into the 90's. However, at the beginning of this year, it was announced
   that Apple Computer would no longer manufacture the AppleIIgs.

   Second of all, the new technologies of which I speak are not available
   for the AppleIIgs. For example, in WordPerfect 6.0 (which is only $279
   incidentally) I can type a letter and FAX it to anyone with the touch of
   a button - all from within WordPerfect!!!

   This type of blind mentality is not only amazing, it makes one wonder
   how man ever emerged from the dark ages. At least some of us have moved
   on and entered the age of enlightenment!
