  The LAZER128EX is a suitable machine from the compatability point of
view, but if you plan to write machine code - don't use the uncommon
addresses of the machine. I mean write ALL your routines, and don't
make extensive use of monitor based ROM routines.
  You'll probably have to stick to DOS 3.3, cause //'s & //+'s can't
boot Prodos. You can't use open-apple & closed-apple keys, too.
  As for books - well, I recommend Apple's old reference manuals,
which you have to dig for first, then enjoy for their good machine
description. I have my old //+ manual, and that sure helped when I got
my //e.
