OK, I finally got around to updating the webpages.  It'll take about an
hour to propagate to www.netbsd.org.  Take a look and let me know if I've
got it right.

Also, since you're a developer, you should feel free to add things like
this to the webpages/install notes, since you're the most knowledgable
about this particular problem.

Actually, ISTR that the first generation iMacs had ADB connectors on their
motherboards (presumably for debugging).

:)Agreed, just don't expect it to be all that successful.  Incorrect

Yeah, I've noticed that too.  Theoretically, when there's an important
change, we could mail all the search engines to remove old versions from
their caches.  Simplicity itself!
