Re: HOW THE APPLE II COULD RETURN...

This is the only part of your post with which I disagree.  I
 really loved my Laser.  The major reason I went to IBM,
 however, was because my keyboard was shot.

I think the GS could do very well if marketed correctly, and
 fitted with the following:

(a) A drive which reads/writes MS-DOS and Mac disks.
(b) Expanded video support (JPG, MPG hardware decoding would
     be excellent.)
(c) Builtin IDE controller/included ~80M drive.

I, for one, use my IBM mainly for telecommunicating and
 viewing graphics files.  I'm sure many others have the
 same needs, and would welcome a low-cost alternative to
 the wildly over-performing PCs out there.
