  11. Who pays for system software???? When I ordered new Macs, I got a coupon
  12. for system 7 WITH the manuals!  For my other Macs, before I ordered the
  13. new ones, I downloaded it free from apple.com.  Same with TuneUP and
  14. QuickTime.  Again, WHO pays for apple system software?  Oh, Apple does!
  15. Very expensive to produce your own software, I know I was a systems
  16. programer for 10 years!
