I'm sold on the reasoning behind this development-- that eventually, we'll
record on CD-ROM and download most programs from the Internet.  Which puts
Apple smack dab in the middle of "tomorrow."

Of course, whoever wrote this assessment also pointed out that the downside
of being "ahead of your time" is that no one can reasonably use you *now*.

Which is (partly) why I compute with a Performa, OS 7.1.  Which puts me
comfortably behind the times, but just reasonably functional.  And I'm not
on the net.  Yet.
