Apple II

Everytime I see this commercial I get a nice warm feeling.
This is "APPLE Computer" at it's greatest -- quiet intellectual coolness.

It speaks to everything it is to be human -- the physicality of playing basketball, the metabolismness of chasin' girls with a car ....

Then Dad shows his bonding with his son & gets 'im the best 8-bit machine ever made -- the "APPLE //c+" computer....
Enjoy! > The "APPLE //c+" Computer Commercial

I am looking for an old RPG game for the Apple II. I played this game in 1982. The name of this game I don't know and I have been search for the name for a few months now, but no luck so far.

It was a graphic fantasy RPG game (D&D like)which was in black and white (maybe it used a few colors but me not sure about that).

I have this card in my apple two made by Cermtek it has a small label on it saying applemate 1200 there is a speaker on the card and a port that looks like a telephone jack and some dip switches. i'm geussing this is a 1200 baud modem, but how do i use it? does anyone have software or any documentation on this card i have pictures.
here is the front of the card

Hi, I'm trying to write a short story that involves an Apple II undergoing some sort of catastrophic hardware failure. Unfortunately I'm too young to have used an Apple II (my first computer was a 386), so my description will be unfaithful unless I get some first hand accounts.

Does anyone have any horror stories about Apple IIs biting the dust? I've had power supplies blow up and hard drives crash and I'm wondering what the equivalent disasters for Apple IIs would be. Any plausible scenarios that would result in a small fire would be nice too.
