Well it looks like my reply got messed up so here goes again. I didn't realize tht because I have a // that I'm aHACKER!!! I bought the //e because it fit my family and my NEEDS. Not everyone needs a Mac. True I don't think that Apple is going to support the // line forever, but there are obvious areas for improvement. Also Apple got to be a billion dollar company because of the // LINE!!!! Not because of the Mac or the bombing Lisa. As for the stupidreply that I wanted (was that ass sumed(Tony Randall)) to talk to a ENGINEER wastotally wrong. All I said was that I was able to talk to someone at APPLE and get a resolution to my problems or questions. Not always the same guy. The //e is still in big demand and Apple should support the LOYALTY that got them that big. Don't drop everything just for ONE new product, the Mac. The //c is not new jsut a smaller //e with a 65C02 and some minor mods to the roms. How can you base your company (computers) on one product?? Never happen!! If Digital,IBM,GM,Ford did they would never be around long or so BIG. If they thinkthey're doing right by the // users, PLEASE send out surveys like alot of comp-anies do. I'm sure the picture will not be as ROSEY as it looks. I like my //e and will have it for a LONG time, and a Mac to, when they get that ironed out!! *************** NOTE ******************************* the above opinions are personally expressed and are NOT of Digital Equipment Corp!!!
