One person (I forget who) who has tried out the magic sac has commented that
the mac desktop is very much slower than GEM (running on the same hardware,
mind you) and that it is NOT recommended for a development environment.

Why WOULD one want the magic sac?  Yes, I know, there is a lot of software
for the mac.  Some of it is very good.  But there is more software for
the ST all the time.  Mixing text and graphics is now possible, TEX is
available, CADD and PC-board design is here, music software is exploding
(thanks to the ST's built-in MIDI interface), and so on.  There are rumors
that Microsoft WORD is being (has been?) ported, and I suppose (and hope)
that Excel will come after that.

I suggest that we ST users stop jumping up and down around every rumor of
yet another mac emulator, legal or not, and instead press the publishers
to ignore Apple's (presumed) pleas and port it all to the ST's native OS
(with its bugs and all :-).
