Bill,

You didn't read very well yourself.

Supertimer's comment:

Was addressed to the following statement:

> propped up Apple Computer Corporation up until now by purchasing that
> Apple ][ Plus on clearance sale back in 1983.

Now, how does the above show that anonymous obviously knows nothing 
about the Apple II platform?

Here is Supertimer's full comment:

Now, what could that two part statement mean OTHER than an accusation 
that the anonymous thought the Apple II line ended in 1983?  Hmm? And IF 
it does indeed mean that (authorial intent disregarded because it is 
unknown, perhaps even to the author), then Supertimer did indeed misread 
as anonymous makes clear in his response.

But don't worry too much Bill, anonymous evidently didn't read my post 
very carefully himself.

Roy
