- Well, I think you're right, Apple should continue to market the
- Classic. But what if Apple drop the Classic and sell the Classic II
- for the price of the current Classic? No body will lose (maybe Apple though).
- Remember, system 7.0 is out there and is quite more ungry than system 6.0.X.
- Yes you can use the Classic for communication software which don't ask too much
- on the machine but these software runs on top of system 7.0!!!
