Yes, I have fondness for the plus/4. I loved the cool escape codes for
windowing, scrolling etc and went as far as making a custom c64 kernel with
those integrated... Didn't get it completely working though... If the plus/4
had sprites and a Sid chip it would have been a killer machine. Or, if the c64
had 121 colors and basic 3.5... ;-)
