- The folks at Ardi just don't cease to amaze me. So far I have been
- extremely impressed with Executor 199q. Now, they're already working on
- System 7.5, PPC, and beyond. This is the kind of pioneering spirit that
- the computer industry needs. They're basically taking on the giant
- Apple, who has been so stubborn to write their own emulator, (which they
- could have if they wanted) and they're doing it legally and successfully.

- My congrats!
