On a side note: I’ve become reacquainted recently with my IIe, and after working with PCs for several years, both hardware and software, I’m learning to appreciate some of the small but significant things that made the Apple II such a simple and flexible machine.

Some appreciate quantity (of menu commands, for example) but others, like yourself, appreciate quality. In today’s computers, the sales game tends to favor quantity too often. Many miss the quality difference (of the Macintosh, for one thing) when they just read comparison charts and feature lists and think that’s the important measure. Good for you.
