There was an 80-column add-on card that also supported lower-case
(though, IIRC, you also had to do a hardware hack to wire the <shift>
key to the joystick button to get it to be recognized in certain
cases).  The IIe was a far better machine, having the 80-column card
built in.  PR#3 :-)

I'm also glad Python doesn't require prefixing lines with
line-numbers for GOTO/GOSUB purposes, then requiring external
the line-renumbering utilities that AppleSoft BASIC required :-S
