I agree with the idea that writing to Apple to offer support for
the MacCartridge might be helpful to those developing this product, but
how can they be convinced that the $100 or whatever they might make
on each cartridge isn't just a loss of $2500 for the Mac and peripherals
that they didn't sell (and Atari did)?  It would be great if Apple
gave the okay and allowed them to market their cartridge, but I don't
know if there are too many good reasons why Apple would want to do that.
David Small also said that selling the cartridge without the ROMs was
not something he would consider.
