why? it did SO MUCH on _so_little_. I know it was limited, but think about it. How the hell do you cram a GUI into 128KB or ram, and a 400KB floppy disc. that is HARD. but apple did it. It proves that you don't need that much resources to do the impossible. Personally, I think that the Apple II was the best (the II series, all of them) because they seem to be the most hackable machines out there.

I mean, heck, the thing tells you what all the address lines are, how to make your own cards for it, and the thing is so darn configurable, it's not funny.

As much as I like the mac (68k,PPC, Intel) I still think the Apple II series was the best computer out there.

Besides, for an interesting bit of trivia, did you know that they got the Finder running on the Apple II? that's why there is a mouse for the apple II

it was mainly made for the development of the finder
