Some words in defense of Apple...

While there are many things that we would like to see in the next generation
of the Macintosh (or in any computer, for that matter), and while they do
lots of things that we can't understand, and that piss us off, and that make
us all think that they couldn't care less, a few points still stand out.

	Apple, with the introduction of the Macintosh, has proved that they
can think. The Macintosh, in my opinion, is the neatest thing to come down
the pike since the transistor. I still cannot imagine myself owning, or
programming, or using any other brand of computer. Except maybe a Sun 3. 8-)
But even then it's not quite the same as a Macintosh....

	I also think that the people at Apple are simply too busy to respond
to every question, gripe, or request that they see....


	I personally hope that Apple keeps introducing machines that continue
the trend from Macintosh 128K to Fat Mac to Mac Plus to whatever may come
along. No matter WHAT it is.
