This is the support YOU are giving your Apple II. This has little difference
to what others are doing with theirs. I happen to know of many IIe's which are
being used for a wide multitude of applications. My own is souped up modestly
(1 meg ram + 10 mhz accelerator) and is a powerhouse when I use it. Whether
the Apple II is "heading down the tubes" or not, your argument (as evidence to
make this point) is unconvincing.
