Hey guys! I was digging deep into System 7.0 this morning and came across a very interesting message from some poor souls at Apple. Message follows, what should we do about it? ---------------------------Cut Here-------------------------->8------------- Macintosh System version 7.0 ) Apple Computer, Inc. 1983-1991 All rights reserved. All Rights Reserved. Help! Help! We're being held prisoner in a system software factory!
