This month's MacUser contains the most idiotic paragraph in the rumor column. They state "Apple is working on a 68030 machine, which (so far) will include the 68881 FPU and 68851 MMU as standard equipment. The suprise is that the machine will have 4 slots and cost *less* than a Mac II!" The MacUser column is the most brain-damaged rumor column in the industry. They ALWAYS make up their rumors. What's more, they're too stupid to invent plausible rumors! Why would Apple put a 68851 PMMU in a 68030 macintosh, when the 68030 chip already has memory-mangement on-chip? Come on guys!

If you call MacUser, you will find out that they invent the rumors once a month over margaritas. I swear that they said that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Alexander M.
