OK, it's not an Apple, but it did use a couple Motorola CPUs, the 6800 and 6809.
The most exciting thing about this arcade, I think, is that it has the original painted artwork on the original, dedicated cabinet! Not restored, no vinyl stickers. Everything is original on it. It even has the 3 slot coin box with a dollar slot for quick multiplay.
The joystick needs a little work, the coin slot doesn't register coins, and the left button on the programmer switch doesn't work (I can short it with a key to get it to Freeplay), but these are very minor. Very, very little ware on the cabinet. CRT has zero burn in, crystal clear.
The guy said he got it for his 16th birthday, but it ended up in his mother-in-law's garage for the last 30 years. Never really got to use it. She melted the overlay with cigarettes, though. :disapprove: Fortunately, NOS arcade overlays show up on eBay quite regularly for under $60, so not a problem. A few expected scratches near the base, and one very minor ding on the front, but all of those defects are in the black area and not in the artwork. Easy repair. Has the original coin box, and even the original manilla "Diagnostics" folder with the original manual and service pamphlet.
Got it for $450 which I think is a bargain for a nearly mint condition original dedicated Defender arcade, and man, is this gonna be fun!
