Although my experiences with 8-bit software is rather limited, even I
have seen some neat things done with DHR. Since we're talking games,
howabout 'Airheart' or 'Dragon Wars'...
I'm sure we all know the reason Apple is "pushing" the IIe, is so that
school systems (the last refuge for the Apple II) will consider Macs
with the IIe emulation card.
