When there are GUI tools to do everything the Classic Mac OS can do, I'll be happy. As long as I have to keep digging into the command line to fix stuff like permissions by logging in as root or using "sudo," I'm not happy. >I know people from the Apple II list who are, yes, still using Apple II's.
