Ahh, early to mid 90’s, upgrading from 3.1 to 95.
And having a dual boot with dos 5 and 6 and finally 6.22.
What a scam that was, but it put MS everywhere.
Apple HAD to do something if they wanted to stick around.
They did and they did.

Yes, but cloning wasn’t it. All cloning did was destroy Apple hardware sales. The only reason Apple’s still around is OS X, the iMac, and the genius of Jobs and Jonathan Ives.

And the board, for realizing that they had dug a deep, deep hole by 1997 and finally ceasing to dig.
