Cool! I am not getting sound, but I didn't have that one white wire hooked up, nor did the prior owner, and was a bit concerned I might hook it up wrong and fry something. Will be good to figure it out and hear it!

It was through my local Boise area vintage computer club and for privacy concerns, I will DM you. :)

Thank you for that! I will just learn more about Apple II Echo Speech generally then.

Yes, I do think it’s related to that and I have seen other echo cards. It can find some information regarding them. But not this one that also says tapestry.

Says APPLE SPKR in the upper left. "Tapestry Echo" lower left. It has a little Echo speaker that goes with it and connects with the wire you see on the right.

Thanks.

Kinda lucked into this. Don't know much about it yet. I hooked it up at first to the side by side drive I have for my IIe to try it out. I took the little RaspberryPi HDMI card out of the IIe to try out in this machine also. I got that Monitor /// free with the stand at our computer event in...

Oh, and also I have obtained video card and accelerator.

Getting slowly closer. Confirmed the person nearby who has a donor board for me, and that he will be able to provide it, and more than one local person who can help me with the harder stuff. Still a ways off from lift off on the project, but putting things together.

Thanks!

Ok, interesting. Much to learn. I will definitely want access to pre-OSX stuff, but largely, more recent stuff that takes up more room, including Logic Pro projects, my photos and videos, lots and lots of documents, etc. And ideally, I will want to be able to convert older docs to be reused...

Sounds good! I am looking into what I want to use as a server, and learning what I want out of such a system, and maybe I would use a Beige as you have in some respect, as I already have two. I didn't mention I have an old late 2014 Mac Mini laying around that runs and is running Monterey that...

Yah, that is where I am now. The 6360 was more of a rescue just because he was basically giving the Performas away. I may or may not keep either. Same with the Mac Iivx. that was more of a cheap rescue thing with the intent to maybe use it to practice soldering/repair techniques mostly...
