Doesn't anyone have anything of interest to put on here?
(I know I can say a lot, but it wouldn't be nice.)
Here is one:
I like the Mac a whole bunch more than a NeXT now. There are a few
things I like about the NeXT, but I prefer the Mac II.

At the moment, it's mainly of interest to people who want to program it. For that, it's quite interesting. But for using applications, of *course* it's not interesting...yet! --Franklin franklin a davis Thinking Machines Corp.
