    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475!

    An interesting point. I am using a VGA adapter and this in turn plugged into a VGA to HDMI adapter, so I could record the video. I dont recall the exact values, but this all output the VGA at an odd resolution. Its not 640x480, but rather something like 832x540 or something. Its odd, as it also...

    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475!

    Regarding double post, I understand one was for the Apple II forum and the other was for the LC forum. I use the "New Posts" view every day so I saw both posts. Is there a m68kla browsing pattern that someone might use that would miss one of the posts? Hand up, yeah, my bad, maybe posting to the...

    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475!

    The artifacting is certainly a key part of the look of an Apple II, not always good, but it IS the way the machine was engineered, I tried in my video to explain WHY the choice of colours, which may seem odd, and why fringing happens. I could not go into all examples, but I hope it will give...

    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475!

    I think you may be taking this from a VERY particular, VERY technical viewpoint. Retro videos have to satisfy a broad audience. I am aware that many, like myself are old timers, who used most of this kit first time around. But not all. Indeed, over time this will NOT be the case, it will be...

    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475!

    Having the physical machine does matter, certainly. I think this machine, in a way is a bit like owning a IIc, no slots, and it looks like a Mac :), but, in other ways, its a little marvel. I would not advocate someone own ONLY this card as their Apple II experience, UNLESS they had very little...

    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475!

    I'm not sure you "lose the spirit", but certainly its a compromise. Consider that some people may only have room for a few physical retro machine in their collections. Getting a LC with this card allows someone to have BOTH a vintage Mac and a IIe, well to some degree. It IS in hardware, real...

    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475!

    Firstly, thanks to everyone for the feedback, Ill respond to each post separately in a mo. Although mostly negative, its good to have SOME comments on a video I have made (and spammed to all places). Generally I post and get a number of views and zero comments, so this is good :)

    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475!

    Apple IIe Card: An Apple IIe INSIDE my Macintosh LC475! In this video I put an Apple IIe Card in my Macintosh LC475, a machine designed to host this wonderful card. In 1991 Apple wanted everyone to use Macintoshes, and this card would allow schools to buy new LCs with Apple IIe's within. The...
