If you're a commodore person, you should be comparing this with what you could do with a PET or maybe a VIC-20 in this timeframe (not a C64).

That's nice because all the Apple machines can run the program.

A split the middle might have been double low res, 80x48 with the same 16 colors, but only available on the //e and gs

IMHO, running on all the Apples is the better call.
