I still have two Apple 2+ machines. One is a Bell and Howell "Black Apple" with the built in 32k of RAM. The other is a regular Apple that has the upgrade card to 48k of RAM and two external floppy drives. I'm gonna keep them just in case they become collectible!

I was happy back then to find out that I didn't have to use binary hex keypunch cards to have a computer that I could use at home. I learned some of the programming languages back then. Even now, some knowledge of DOS can come in handy, but I really don't miss all of the work and knowledge it took to operate what is now such a part of everyday life.
