Assuming that no half enhancement has been done, one of the following should
do:
0) Turn it on. If it displays Apple ][ then it is unenhanced.
If it displays Apple //e then it is enhanced.
1) Lift lid and look at CPU (40pin). If it is a 6502A then unenhanced.
If a 65C02 then it is enhanced.
2) Run a program that uses mousetext. If it displays mousetext then
it is enhanced. If you get inverse CAPITAL letters it is not.
3) Run the self test (Control-Closed Apple-Reset). If it says
Kernel OK it is not enhanced. If it says System OK it is.
