Ed,
Thanks for this.
I miss my Apple //e. I learned to program in basic and it was so much fun. I stayed up well into the night writing code on that machine and I wish I still had it to play with. When I got my first Mac my wife, who never lets me keep anything too long if I¡¯m not using it made me get rid of it. I gave it to my brother-in-law and I have no idea if he still has it. I suspect not.
In addition to a modem card and a printer card I had two 3.5 disc drives. I think I had other cards but don¡¯t remember what they were. I also don¡¯t remember the 80 column card.?
For many years I felt Appleworks on the //e was better than on the Mac.
And remember the computer message boards? You would post a message and come back a few hours later and find a response. How exciting that was.
