- Let me instead discuss the converse: being impolite doesn't get you
- anywhere with me, at least.

- Apple's probably more inclined to put a new 8-bit system disk on the FTP
- site when engineering actually _releases_ a new 8-bit system disk. So
- far, they have not.
-
- And when/if it happens, expect it to be a disk archive. System software
- is distributed as original disks, not as component files.
