   No reason to make Apple ]['s after the ][+ was in production.  If you had to
have integer basic, you could use the firmware card, or get a language card,
and load it into the RAM on the card.

   Just like the //e.  They quit making the ][+ when the //e came out. 
Actually before it came out, but you get the picture.  When I was working at a
dealer in '83, I remember them blowing out the ][+ for $600 to make way for the
//e.  What a bargain...
