    color monitor for the apple ///

    They're heavy, with motorized tilt control... one of those forgotten little niceties like the 2-speed arrow keys on the ///.

    color monitor for the apple ///

    I don't think so... that comes right out the back of the ///. The IIe required an RGB card. Then I'll feel free to butt in. ;-) Yep - mine does. I didn't know you could LL format without formatting software on the /// (in addition to the chip)...?

    Apple /// collection

    Ah, the memories. So nice!

    Apple IIc won't boot?

    It could be a lot of things. You might start by swapping chips with your good IIc and cross-check functionality on both as you go to isolate any bad parts.

    Appletalk between IIc and Classic II

    Michael J. Mahon knows. And now you know too.

    Appletalk between IIc and Classic II

    The usual remedy for key non-functionality is to bash on it - a lot. If the problem is poor contact within the key switch itself, that is the only non-intrusive solution. If a lot of repeated action does not clear the problem up, then it's time for some surgery.

    Appletalk between IIc and Classic II

    Yes, Apple File Exchange (on the Mac) is just such a program. No IIc or IIc+ can host an external card. The Laser 128, a IIc compatible, could... but that's a horse of another color.

    Appletalk between IIc and Classic II

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/adtpro/files/dos-adt/ADT%202007_2/ Inside the DOS ADT package you will find MacADT.sit.

    Appletalk between IIc and Classic II

    Nothing is impossible. There is a version of ADT (pre-ADTPro) that runs on the classic mac. You'd need a printer cable (an 8-pin mini-DIN null modem, essentially) for that. If you have that cable, you could also do file-by-file transfers via a telecomms program on both ends - but I suspect...

    Appletalk between IIc and Classic II

    It's not possible to do Appletalk on the IIc+, which is why you're coming up empty. And depending on what other hardware you already have... ADTPro is free as in beer as well as in liberty. You would need a null modem cable if you don't already have one, and you'd need a USB-serial adapter if...

    Zephyr (new released game 2013 from 1987!)

    I did the same thing. I like to support vendors any way I can... sometimes I help with testing, sometimes with development. Sometimes it's just opening my wallet. What goes around, comes around...

    IIc case screws

    I just took mine apart to do some beta hardware testing... the screws are long and have super-coarse threads. Two finer threaded screws attach the handle.

    Apple II games

    1. Use the (original) serial version: http://sourceforge.net/projects/a2gameserver/ 2. Play games online: http://virtualapple.org/ 3. Make and use physical floppy disks: http://adtpro.sourceforge.net

    Does Apple II actually use -12v rail from PSU?

    The Disk II uses -12v...

    Apple ][ monitor model?

    It looks like a TV, not a monitor - and it's certainly not particular to the Apple II.

    IIgs lost it's floppy

    It's starting to sound hardware failure-ish. Any reason to believe it's a recent development? Was it plugged in while powered on or anything?

    IIgs lost it's floppy

    Hmmm. And PR#5 doesn't make it boot or jiggle the drive before getting the bouncing apple?

    IIgs lost it's floppy

    Is slot 5 (assuming you're talking about a 3.5" disk) set to Smart Port as opposed to Your Card?

    Apple ][e disk init help

    There are references out there - but first, some understanding might be in order. The disk-related commands only come into being when you have DOS (I'm assuming DOS 3.3 here...) booted. INIT is a DOS command, and unless/until you boot that, you won't have the command available. Now, if you...
