When's An Apple II not an Apple II?

[jeff@tiger.lsu.edu (Jeffrey Thomas Sheldon)]

Well, we've seen the Mac undergo a new architecture and still retain the 
"Mac" name, and soon we'll see it adopt more construction and abilities 
so as to be more IBM-ized (which is when I stop buying from apple..or 
anyone), be what could be done with the Apple II and still call it an 
Apple II?

I've heard a lot of support that the line should still be active and 
such, but on what terms is the general consensus?  Do you mean on the 
6502, or w/ the same card support, or with the GUI for the GS?  Obviously 
slapping a label on a 100mhz super-risc micromachine with mental control 
and 3d output wouldn't make it a _genuine_ Apple II.

So I'm curious to see...where would the rest of you like the Apple II to 
become, if Apple woke up and decided to restart assembly?
