So is this just a pipe dream?
Yes.
Mahon's Law: "Any sufficiently advanced Apple II design
is indistinguishable from emulation."
If you don't like the speed and size constraints of the
Apple II line, then _you don't like the Apple II line!_
Dreaming is fun, until you begin to confuse it with
reality--then it's not so much fun.
This seems to be a perennial theme on CSA2, like
the Perseid shower, so I know I should just watch
the funny posts and be quiet... But I've seen it come
around enough now that it is no longer amusing to me.
There are so many _realizable_ dreams that can be
executed within the constraints of the _real_ Apple II
that it seems a waste of time to dream about things
that are _certainly_ never going to happen.
And if you think I'm wrong, check it out ten years
from now.
