I will apologize in advance for any duplication.  I have not been reading
any of the comp.sys.mac* groups.

I was just reading December's Byte and there is a pretty good article on 
HyperCard.  I guess I really didn't know what it was, and nobody writing in 
comp.sys.mac.hpyerypercard was telling.  I also read the article about the
accelerator boards for the Mac. I kept saying to myselt, "I bet this stuff 
wont't work with my machine."

So here I am sitting at home with a 128K mac which I paid over $2000 for.  I
does not run any software and I don't use it.  It was great when I bought
it, but I haven't heard from rom Apple since.  I bought Macterminal, Macpascal, 
and UCSD Pascal, all basically the first versions.  I send in the
registration cards like a good owner should.  Well Apple has sure screwed me.

So, I'm told I could sell my machine for maybe $50 .  I am thinking
about upgrading it, but I am wondering if this will leave me in the same
position in another year.  I was told I could upgrade the memory and the
roms and get something that isn't sold anymore.  I would like to know if any
anyone has any better ideas or advice.  How much can I upgrade what I've got
and how close to the current product will it get me?  Or does it just make
sense to buy a new machine. (I doubt I will let Apple screw me twice).

Does anyone make a useful operating system for the Mac which is small and 
doesn't need to have the user swap the D**M disk 25 times to copy a 1K file?
Is there a CPM variant., or some such thing?
