--> No idea how many are `out-there' - but I've got three IIe's in
    working condition, but two of them are for parts for the `main'
    (original) IIe.  I'll scavenge from them without hesitation as
    long as I can keep my (precious) IIe up and running.  Just fired
    it up last week again to update and print-off the Xmas card addy
    list. Still workin' sm-o-o-o-o-o-th...

    Good luck on getting anything close to `real-time' stats; though
    it'd be cool to know what those numbers are!  My II+ doesn't get
    turned-on at all anymore - but it did work the last time I tried.
