People really wanted to network the Apple II, schools and industry both
were VERY hot for the idea of a one central server to host all the
software, with the Apples just as simple clients. No floppies to lose, easy
backup, etc. etc.
OTOH Apple wanted to sell macs, so they kept features away from the II and
IIgs, to enchance or force migration to the mac.
