Just for the record, nobody calls me "Squeaky".  Well, except maybe 
Jim, just now.  I understand the US Secret Service gets very nervous 
about people with the name "Squeaky", particularly the old-timers.

I moved recently, and I ran across the little stack of floppies for 
Apple Smalltalk-80, though I think I may have been missing one.  I 
think I may even have a Mac lying around that can still read 800K 
floppies - I may even have a Mac SE in the garage that might run it.

Hmmm....

PS.  I don't think we ever successfully sold a Prodigy upgrade for $10K 
- but there were a lot sold at $5K.
