Some additional points beyond what you covered: - The power supply input is 12V with a wide tolerance, making the automotive electrical system a good power source. - The 80/40 col soft switches etc. are supposed to be improved over the //e, although there are indications that the same custom logic (MMU & I/O control) chips are used. I have to admit that the //e is tricky to use in 80-column mode. - Since the Apple Mouse II likes to live in slot 4 (this is what the available software defaults to), that would be my guess also for the Apple //c mouse slot. I have actually played with a //c for a while and the keyboard is satisfactory.
