OK, sounds like a vanilla flame against people who don't get the latest
everything.

So I would like to pose the following question:
    Should we continue to support machines without 20 MegS SCSI HD,4 Meg RAM,
    and other goodies like 68020, FPU and MMU chips?

And paraphrase baron@runx.OZ's answer:
    Surely most Mac users want the extra power that these new upgrades give
    them over the vanilla machines.
    TO ALL THOSE PEOPLE WITHOUT THE GOODIES..........
