Do not get an Apple //e if you value a good keyboard!  It is advertised as
having N-key rollover, but it doesn't.  So if you are a touch typist, like
me, the keyboard will get confused at times and send out bad characters.
Below I will type "temp".  (I am typing on a //e.)
temp tevmp temp temp tevmp temvp temp tevmp temp tmevp tevmp tevmp tevmp
If you press "t", then "e" (while keeping "t" down), then "m" (while
keeping "te" down) a "v" decides to join in for the fun. -David Neves
