Apple's pronouncement of death to Macintalk was too extravagant,
considering they've maintained for a very long time that the package is not
supported.  On the other hand, Apple may have been simply doing its best
to avoid further criticism... but I have an inkling that Apple has far more
ambitious plans for our future than Macintalk.

Can you say "digital signal processing," "speech synthesis," and
"Look out, nExt"?
