Another difference, although minor, are the revamped back port connectors.
Thumb-screw holes were added, as well as icon images over each port to
identify it's function (as on the Apple IIc/gs and Macintosh). As well,
the 5.25 disk port was changed from a set of male IDC-pins to a DB-connector.
The original Apple III had a Silentype printer port I believe (DB9 connector),
that wasn't a new feature on the III Plus.
