[comp.sys.mac.hardware] System 7 and Mac Plus/SE 68030 upgrades.

  Sorry to cross-post, but I think this is pertinent to both groups.  I just
received System 7.0b1 in the mail, and a file which came along with it
indicated that System 7 would not support virtual memory on 68000 Macs with
third-party 68030 upgrades.

  Since I know that many have purchased these upgrades hoping to get the
added functionality of VM from System 7, I was curious what the Net's
reaction would be to this.  In my opinion, Apple can't be expected to support
every unholy combination of third-party hardware with the Mac, but I'm sure
others have different views on that.  However, I'm a little surprised and
I'm not sure I understand.  Does this come as a surprise to anyone else or is
it just me?
