Right on! What a beautiful machine that was. And I, too, wasted many, many an hour playing Wizardry. Other favorites were Castle Wolfenstein and Aztec.

And remember how it cam with the green Basic programming book to get you started? I don't know if I've ever loved a product as much before or since.

Apple II+... My school had some of them for a year or two before I got one. I wanted my own copy of that book for a long time before I finally got it. There was a local computer store that sold Apples. I finally saved up the $20 to buy a copy of that book from them. I still have it. Fond memories.
