The eBay "second chance offer" I received was a spoof.
Ebay appears to have been hacked a bit or something...

Modern keyboard for Apple //e

Submitted by dramsey on April 15, 2013 - 8:12pm

Do you think there would be any market for replacement Apple ][ or //e keyboards built with modern Cherry key switches? These would be plug-in replacements for the original keyboards and would probably use the existing key caps.

Are all RAM expansion cards the same, functionally?

Submitted by dramsey on April 14, 2013 - 11:40pm

I have an Applied Engineering RAMWorks II card in my system, and have configured the RAM disk under SOS and Pascal. Works great.

I'd like to obtain another for the backup system. I see there are several other similar cards available, such as the Meg80Z 1MB RAM card.

I'm guessing that due to the way bank switching works, these cards (for the //e) probably are are pretty much the same-- that is, the Applied Engineering software will likely work.

On the other hand, I could be completely wrong.

Does anyone KNOW?

Welcome to 1977...

Submitted by Corey986 on April 14, 2013 - 6:47pm

Was looking to let off some "steam" from all the chores I was doing today...

Woz's original Integer Basic breakout on cassette sounded good... (BTW: Runs so much faster than the Microsoft derived AppleSoft version called Little Brick Out).

ADT question about using audio vs serial

Submitted by Corey986 on April 13, 2013 - 6:49am

Besides bootstrapping which you sometimes can't avoid,

How bad is ADT (not pro client, but for DOS 3.3) when sending disk images over the audio ports vs using a Super Serial card?

It's a heck of a lot easier and cheaper to run audio cable between my Apple II area and my Mac which sits on my desk then it is to run 25ft of serial cable.

Buggie

Submitted by k4lmp on April 12, 2013 - 8:29pm

I don't know if any of you have bought anything off of Buggie4vrl on ebay. He is the one that makes the Buggie power supplies, and I'm sure you all have heard of him. I have made a couple of purchases from him on ebay, and he is the greatest. If you ever think of buying from him, don't hesitate. He is great. Good, honest, ebay seller. That is a rarity these days.

Apple ][e and Printer

Submitted by Stargeek on April 9, 2013 - 8:52am

I inherited an Apple ][e from my Father. It had power supply issues and once I removed the mainboard connector, tested the power supply, and reattached, it started working (corrosion on connectors?). Now working, Yea!

My Father was a prolific writer of his life experiences. All on 5.25 floppies! I'd like to get the stories off the floppies, it looked like the most practical method would be to print them off and scan to pdf files or ocr.

The printer involved is a Transtar 120 daisywheel for which I have no documentation. Knowing the control codes would be a plus.
