FZ Pretentiousness is the character flaw I despise the most, probably
FZ because I see it as the precursor to more serious failings. I try to
FZ ignore these people, but sometimes I'm compelled to retaliate.

Well, the only people I've ever personally witnessed using all caps
were either too rich to need to know how to write or someone who
couldn't afford the Apple II upper case 80 column upgrade. Now I'm
travelling back memory lane.

BTW "upper case" used to mean small letters. It was a confusing time!

My Apple II+ has that jumper.
