Some corrections to my last msg :
In Jan Apple wil probably announce AppleTalk (not NET), a LAN
'Apple somehow hopes to stun the audience with its new file-server system
dubbed the Office System. It's essentially a box with a hard disk designed to be attached to the laser printer and Appletalk.'

The 'Turbo Mac' will have a double-side SOny 31/2-inch drive and a "video out"
connector. A "dedicated" hard disk connector may also be included.

The Lisa will be repackaged possibly with 12-inch screen and detachable
keyboard though it may be called a Mac of 'some sort.' "Reports have it that
Apple intends to phase out the unsuccessful Lisa computer" Apple is also
setting up its own in-house business sales force to go after the business
market against IBM with more success they hope.

This was from last Sunday's SF Examiner, business section, by JOhn Dvorak
