Any comments from a long-time RSI man regarding the dropping of Mac OS X?
I seem to recall you warning of some changes when Kodak took over.
Nevertheless, you've been rather silent on this point.

Oh yes, given the lack of Macintosh support in future IDL releases, I have
one, slightly used, copy of your 2nd ed. book that I am willing to sell.

Cheers,
Randall
