The 0X0 Macs may not be shiping anymore (except the Performa/LC 630 and
640DOS compatible, and the Power Books) but they are far from dead.  Even
a lowly 68000 based machine can run System 7.5.  And Apple still supports
0X0s and will even port parts of Copland back to them.  I'd like to see an
8088 run Windows 95 (after all we should compare latest system to latest
system and Windows 95 has been out for 56 minutes already where I'm at).
