So what else is new ..... and, no doubt, it is a lot more fun to write new and innovative software from scratch rather than maintaining existing Mac-code... there certainly is no fame and glory there, but it's a living and should be a worthwhile experience for "new kids on the block". However, there is no doubt in my mind that Apple (and all "the rest of us") will suffer from the exodus of old hands from Apple ... PS: this is only a worthless rumor and speculation and does not deserve more than a shrug of your shoulders and an "oh, yearhhh?!"

I would love to try to maintain ResEdit for a year or two, if anyone out there is listening.... :-) -- Joel West MCI Mail: 282-8879 Western Software Technology, POB 2733, Vista, CA 92083 {cbosgd, ihnp4, pyramid, sdcsvax, ucla-cs} !gould9!joel joel%gould9.uucp@NOSC.ARPA

I have seen no 'exodus of old hands'. Turnover has looked rather light to me... but what do you expect from 'worthles rumor and speculation'. -- Michael Deux apple!michael 'Things are not always as simple as you might think ...'
