The //e with white-lettered keys may:
-not be able to have double high-resolution graaphics (it probably
 can, tho.  You're in good shape if the serial number ends with a "-B"
-not be enhanced, meaning
  -no MouseText
  -6502 instead of 65C02
  -no lowercase commands in Applesoft BASIC
  -no mini-assembler in ROM
