  Not detracting from Mr. Lau's comments.  I'm sure he's just passing on
what he heard.  But could someone from Apple verify this.  I was under the
impression that much of Color QuickDraw, and therefore 32-Bit QD, was
coded using '020 instructions, and therefore wouldn't work on a 68000 based
machine.  If what Alex heard was indeed right, I'd love to hear some
of the reason's why.

  Not a flame on Apple, I'm just wondering if Apple might be preparing for
the future.  An 030 based portible with Color LCD.

  Anyways I'm just curious... Any comments will be appreciated.

  Note:  Any speculation above is just that.  I have heard nothing to
         indicate that this speculation is true.  Just wishful thinking
         at this point in time.
