I'm curious: why do you prefer //? The Logo type I recall was:

  Apple ][
  Apple ][+
   Apple //e
  Apple //c
  Apple IIGS

The GS is supposed to be smaller, but according to Apple marketting, never
 lowercase. Some of the programmers never got that message. :)

I'm not sure why any one version of the 2 should be picked, but I confess I've
 always used II when it was by itself or generic. Is there a reason other than
 your equally valid preference for choosing // over II, or even ][?
