Aw, c'mon Murph, give us a break.  Besides, did a Laser 128 ever look good with
an expansion card hanging off the end exposed.  Ever think that expansion
card would be just dead meat for any try static electricity charges that might
come a lurking.  Do you see why we introduce products after *thinking* about
all the implications first.

OK, so the //c+ is finally the same speed as a Laser 128K.  So sue us.
