Unfreakinbelievable. They are just askin' for it, eh? And they could
have really wiped the floor on the Internet market, too, if they had
realized the synergy of ease, decent OS engineering, applets, OpenDog
and user frenzy.

Apple PowerBook sales are off 53% from one year ago. Apple's problems are
that they have priced their products (again) to high. The PM 7600 is a
great computer @ $1995.00. It is selling for $2995.00 and isn't worth it. A
PM 8500 is at best a $2500.00 computer and a 9500 is $2995.00.

As a continuing example of Apple's stupidity, they RAISED the price of the
9500 $1500.00 when they clocked them up from 133 to 150 mhz.
