    Yeah it was a good seller by the standards of the day. Was good enough to make a sequel and get the attention of investors.

    While the Apple I was a complete motherboard, the Apple II was a complete computer with case, keyboard, supported color, game controller, D.O.S., BASIC, supported floppy disks, etc.

    Anyone remember programming back in those days? Oh the fun of BASIC and then learning how much faster your program could run when you rewrote it in assembly!!!

    I only did Basic. I moved to a different platform before getting into Assembly. For computing, my school had gone the IBM PC route. I didn't get into assembly until I programmed microcontrollers.
