You know, I thought he also didn't have anything direct to do with the
canning of the Apple II line.

Does anyone out there really think that Jobs would have allowed an
Apple II out the door that treaded on the Mac's territory?

Heck, at the time, I don't think he would have allowed the Mac SE
or the Mac II.  They'd be getting away from his 'vision'.
