 I don't think that the power of the MAC II would be wasted even
on something as mundane(sp) as wordprocessing.

 Consider a problem I ran into trying to change the font of a
32 page document using MAC Write and a MAC Plus.  It took the machine
over 30 minutes to change the font from Geneva to Monaco.

 For more than 30 minutes I had to wait and watch the watch! Even if
the new MAC II is 6 times the speed of the MAC Plus, I would still
have 5 minutes... Enough time to get a mug of coffee and read the 
paper.
