I just got my September issue of "The Active Window", the Boston Computer
Society MUG newsmagazine.  In it they have a calendar of BCS Meetings related
to the Mac.  This one  -- referring to the general BCS meeting (i.e., the BIG
meeting)  --  caught my eye:
*******************************
WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 27
BCS GENERAL MEETING

"A new product introduction by Apple".  In January 1984, Steve Jobs publicly
unveiled the Macintosh computer to members attending the BCS General Meeting at
Boston's John Hancock Hall.  In September 1989, BCS*Mac proudly presents the
first public showing of an exciting new development from Apple at the same
historic location.  Representatives from Apple's Cupertino headquarters will be
on hand to discuss and demonstrate this milestone product.  Watch your mail for
more details.  The meeting is sponsored by The BCS, the world's largest user
group.
********************************

Does anyone have any guesses what this might be?  I can't imagine that it's the
Portable/IIci rollout, since this is supposedly a "first show".  But maybe it
is.  Any ideas?
