The Apple II stayed productive for years after the Mac tried to run it out of town. It lived, thanks to AppleWorks, which proved how useful 8-bits and 128KB could be, despite 32-bit rumors to the contrary.

I gave it a spin, really wanting to put its promise of "integration" to the test, but struggled to figure out a good project. Then I heard about a program that turned AppleWorks into HyperCard, and my path was clear. Includes copious references to 1984 and turducken.
