	Right now there is no Apple IV. I would presume by the name, if there 
were one it would be based on the 6502 (or related) processor. It might 
even be that the developer could be using an unrelated chip set and an 
emulator. There was talk in the early 1980's about the Lisa/Mac as an 
Apple IV. As you no doubt know the Apple and Mac lines have diverged and 
are unrelated in terms of software (from Apple).

	As to who... Nobody. The folks at Apple want to become a software company 
now (like M$). If a third party did try it then the executives at Apple 
would get their underware in a knot over it.

	No website.

	What you may have been thinking of is the Apple IIGS ROM 04. That's 
another story...
