  For those of you who are arrogant enough to believe that those of us who'd
rather buy food than the new ROMS for our macs are stupid, I have but
one thing to say:

     PHFFFFFFFFFFT!

  There ain't that many additional routines in the new ROMS, and so it
shouldn't be that difficult to support the old ROMS.  And you should at
least give support of the old ROMS a shot; what the heck, I may just buy
your next product instead of the new ROMS when I have the money.

  It'd be nice to have the new ROMS, but if I have the choice between the
old ROMS and useful software, or the new ROMS with no useful software, the
choice is easy.  I don't want a fancy doorstop.  (Of course, I'd rather
have both, but I'd get very very hungry very very fast.  $300 can feed this
starving student very well for a long time.)
