Detects Apple ][, ][+, //e, //e+, //c, //c+
- Pretty-print model instead of generic II (bloats the code slightly but worth it.)
Detects 48K/64K/128K
System information in all uppercase (for Apple ][ without lowercase)
Cleaned up fugly logo by Albert Lai
- Logo is now 70 chars wide
- Logo is bit packed 2 bits/char; expands 70 chars * 4 px = 280 px
- Logo takes up 70*12*2/8 = 210 bytes compared to 79*12 = 948 bytes
- X is now symmetrical
- Fixed L,i,n kerning
- Fixed x Penguin kerning
- Fixed L to fit
