The keupad uses on the //e //c version uses the paddle buttons, alias
the open and closed Apple keys for keys 1 and 2.  To get key 3 you have
to plug a threee key pad into the 9 pin joystick port.  I use it all the
time without the keypad, you don't use key 3 very often.  For those tiomes
that you do need key three, you can write a macro to do it without the
keypad.  The keypad is not that big a deal with this version, since it
doesnt use a slot.  The //e, //e version wont work on a //+ with a joy-
stick, however, because the newer version uses the expanded memory for
a larger capture buffer.
