	Well then you have to check out SynthLab, SoundSmith, and Jam Session..
and maybe even other programs, but those are the 'biggies' at the moment.

	Well, I'd like to play a LOT of games as well as programming, word-
processing, etc.

	As other people have said, I just want the Apple II(GS) to remain
competitive... Have all it's always got (hackability), and remain 
competitive. That's ALL. More would be nice, but not necessary. Speed
to be roughly equal to other comparatively priced machines, and graphics
and other characteristics that are similar too. (640 * 400 would be a minimum
resolution with a decent # of colors in a palette... None of this mini-palette
stuff! I think that was a throwback to hires graphics where even and odd
pixels were different colors too!)
