Well I may have to make the plunge soon and I am starting my research.

Anyone here have a desoldering station or special tool (other than a simple sucker) that they world recommend.

I'm trying to keep the price below $125 bucks, need it to be able to work in tight places and not damage the board.

Maybe a little off topic, but I have been contemplating buying a cheap (<$150) portable oscilloscope to mess around trying to fix a pile (read 10 and growing) of Disk II drives I have accumulated which seem to have various curious problems (6 of them pass speed tests, but won't work properly).

I will have to fight myself not to open it.... sealed box

Seeking Apple IIc. Do not wish to buy from eBay and prefer to find locally if possible in Kansas City Metro area.

I have just uploaded to Asimov: version 1.1 of ThinkTank and it's supplemental demo DATA disk.

This was an "Idea Processor" that ultimately found its way to early Macintosh's too!

I have the complete package, including the 228 page manual, but not the time to scan it.

Does swapping European to American IIc motherboard distort image on monochrome 9" monitor? With the old 02-European motherboard the view
is perfectly centered on the screen. With the American 03 motherboard output can't be centered.

What do you think will drive the value of 2 series systems in the future?
Will it be rarity through attrition? By that I mean consoles will fall into hands of unknowledgeable folks that simply push stuff around on ebay like this:

I was able to copy DB Master from Stoneware (and upload it to Asimov) using Gerard Putter's half-track copy method, and it works now in Virtual ][.

I noticed that no one had previously uploaded it to Asimov.

I am still unable to get DB Master Utility Disks #1 & #2 to copy work property using either the half-track or nibble method. Any ideas?

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has tried tried the geethree PS/2 to ADB adapter on a IIgs with an optical PS/2 mouse. If so, did it work well and what brand/model of mouse did you use?

Thanks
