 Another difference I note is that my enhanced has black lettering on the keys
as opposed to white and a translucent 65C02 cover over the power-on indicator.
 Also the rear lip on the back of the enhanced is wider which prevents me from
inserting some cards (modem 80 , long Grappler+ ) from my heavily upgraded
A-ll.

 To not appear as a complete idiot, since it would stand to reason that the
Monitor /// would have come with the A/// , I ran across this somewhere when
researching my monitor find. The way I remember it is that there was some delay
in the A/// intro and they put out the ready to go A/// monitor since it would
function with the other models. I have to organise my snippets of info one of
these days. It's becoming harder to find stuff but I'll search for this one if
only to retain some sort of credibility. : ^ ))
