Our community has an Apple IIe in every classroom in our school system.  The
high school is considering going to an IBM or Clone version for their business
courses.  There is an awful lot of Apple II plain software out there and
it still does the functions for which it was originally written.  The IIe has
128 K which permits it to do a bit more with larger programs that the II+.
If you don't need a bus, get something smaller.  I find the IIe entirely
adequate for my home needs.  I see small business men who do their accounting
on a II+.

The question is does a larger machine, ie an IBM clone cost that much more, and
do you need that extra for your effort.
