Don't gorget Jobs' skills as a master showman. I'm sure they had a custom version or whatever rigged up for the demo, or even just a screen picture. Remember, the rollout of the *really* 1st Mac in 1984 featured it speaking...but they didn't have the voice synthesizer ready in time (or the 128k couldn't handle the memory requirements...something like that), so Jobs used the voice of a real actor. -- Bill Art page: <http://geocities.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
