==Reception==
''[[Byte (magazine)|BYTE]]'' wrote in February 1983 that the IIe was "like having an Apple II with all the extras built in ... with a variety of exciting new features and capabilities" for about the same price as the Apple II. It found the computer to be highly compatible with the Apple II and praised the quality of the documentation for developers and beginners. The review concluded, "Congratulations, Apple Computer, you've produced another winner".<ref name="moore198302">{{cite news | url=https://archive.org/stream/byte-magazine-1983-02/1983_02_BYTE_08-02_Standards#page/n69/mode/2up | title=Apple's Enhanced Computer, the Apple IIe | work=BYTE | date=February 1983 | access-date=October 19, 2013 | author=Moore, Robin | pages=68}}</ref> ''[[InfoWorld]]''{{'}}s reviewers, Apple II Plus owners for four years, wished that the IIe's price were lower but stated that it "does give you more for your money, however".
