Yeah, Ken! Yo're totally right! Here's my list of Apple ][s:

- trusty old ][ europlus with language card (Apple brand! Any clone card
  I bought for my ][ failed sooner or later but the ][ itself never!!!!),
  Z80 card (clone...), Videoterm clone (I had even to patch drivers of
  some software, because the card wasn't 100% compatible...), Erphi
  controller for Apple and Shugart bus 5 1/4" drives. One drive has 640K
  capacity! Epson APL parallel card now switched to the GS for faster
  printing. (I didn't want to impress you, but those are so sweet memories!)
- //c with Z-RAM Ultra III and 256K extra memory (and a 65816 I almost
  never used, well with Merlin 816...)
- ROM 03 IIGS with ZIP GSX (7MHz/8K) and 3Meg of total RAM

I never wanted to sell one of them because I would get less than they
mean to me... (Well, I'll never sell the GS, of course...)

Well now that I've shown you my most secret feelings [grin] it's your
turn, Appler-II-lovers!....
