- So. This also applies to about 80% of the software upgrades that
- have been released in the last year. System 7 is also IMHO 4-5x more
- productive than Sys 6.0.x, as well as being better integrated and more
- expandable.
- I can see that not being able to run Sys 6 on the newwer Macs is a
- bit of a disadvantage, but that is not a disadvantage of System 7.
