For me, the best part of an LC/LC II (and III, I guess) is that you can put an Apple IIe card in one, and emulate an Apple IIe.
In order to do this, you have to be running in 24-bit mode, and not 32-bit. Buuuuuttttttt, running in 24 bit mode, it can only recognize max 10mb of memory, no matter how much memory you had in there.

I thought the LC and LCII can only recognise 10 MB anyway? I think that is one of the reasons many think of these two as "crippled".

As for the IIe emulation, yes, that would be cool, but you'd have to be lucky to find an LC that came with the card, or be willing to pay eBay prices for one
