I was programming on an Apple IIe in 1983 and this post is ... weird. Firstly some things on the Apple were crazy slow. Gaming for example. And the PFS database system when doing any meaningful work. And disk access was a killer on those burping floppy drives. The Apple has no network, LAN or WAN. I think a modem may have been available but most people didn’t have that. All AJAX apps use network. And you will never get away from some amount of latency, even for edge apps. Which means that for certain things, physics dictates that Apple IIe will always be faster than AJAX. Much of the rant isn’t even related to the comparison. I’m also curious about the author’s broken shift key.
