I have fond memories of my II+ clone.
Not so fond memories of the single floppy drive I had at the time.
After losing a disk I recall backing up my software with a bit copy
program. I believe I had to swap disks 70 some times to make a
copy and sometimes I'd lose track and have to start over. Took a
while to find a second disk drive and when I finally did the guy had
two so I bought them both, bedamned to the cost, I wasn't going to
be stuck with only one floppy drive ever again.
Bought a IIc, then a IIe, IIgs, then various Macs.
Maybe we should ask what your most important computer is. I'll do that.
