But not in a public forum, as you said this was. Did this company go back to
Apple privately for a futures meeting? Were they willing to sign a
non-disclosure? If they take public pronouncements as the only
pronouncements, they're not paying enough attention. If they are a big
company, any firm would be willing to clue them in, if they're willing to
protect the information.

Um, the reports I read have all said Sculley is saying there won't be a
68030 in '88. Are you reading the same reports I am?
