The //x was initially being worked on about 2 months behind schedule of the Apple //c...(In other words, was to be released 2 months after //c)...at any rate, it got tabled when the //c didn't do as good as they had expected, Woz left, Jobs screwed up the company, etc.....Then they got Woz back and hence, the IIgs was brought around....The IIgs is the finished version of the Apple //x. The //x just made planning stages, and was getting ready to be put into production when it got tabled. I'm glad Apple finally came out with a computer that looks to be promising....Sure they have had some great computers... (Apple II/II+/IIe, The Mac, now the IIgs), but they have had a couple of flops at crucial times in the computer industry (i.e. IIc / Lisa / IIx <never made it>)... There, now that I got that out of my system, I will plug my BBS a bit.... It's The Laboratory BBS System...10 Megs...300/1200 Baud...303-423-3156 Matchmaker Computer Dating Service Casino Arena 20 Sub-Boards and Lots more!! There....I feel better now!
