	Don't bet on this. I'm sure the GS will have a shiny new
8-track/MED/S3M modplayer that you can disassemble and call your own
real soon, Bryan.

	Get off the acid. We know this; why bring it up in a discussion
unless you want to get flamed? Anyone who wants to be on the cutting
edge of computer technology doesn't expect that from a IIgs. I, like 
most of the people in this group, use my GS because it's still alot of
fun to programs and is able to handle my current computing needs. I
think you're the one who needs to wake up if you expect to handle every
stupid new PC graphic/music/sound/etc format.

	Sure, Windows and DOS suck. We know.
