  ISA sucks sweaty donkey balls.  Think "edge-triggered interrupts".
It's also painfully slow.

  S100 was better in that it was (is) an IEEE standard (IEEE-696 if
memory serves) and that it tended to be much easier to deal with...if
only due to the fact that the people using it usually knew something
about computers.

  I can't say anything about the Apple II bus; I don't know much about
it.
