-------------------------------------
I have heard rumours that Apple are releasing a machine called
the "Johnathon" in the near future.
It is rumoured that the machine will incorporate a 68020, Lisa like
screen (color?) and run System V with a Mac like interface on top.
It is also rumoured that it will run Mac S/W.

Could anyone comment on the veracity of these rumours and
enhance the product description for me.
In particular:
	What are the H/W features? (more detail).
	Will it run Mac and Unix S/W?
	When is it to be released?
	How much is it likely to cost (US or Aus $)?

Thanks in anticipation,

				Manager, Systems Development Group,
				Dept of Comp. Sci.,
				University of Melbourne.
