Apple II

Hi Folks,

I just added the presentations (in PDF format) for a couple of maintenance/repair talks that I made at VCF east during the last couple of years to my Apple II repair pages. There seems to be an increasing number of threads about repairing systems and I figured it might help someone.

http://www.willegal.net/appleii/appleii-repair.htm - look for the links at the end of this page.

To summarize, I think that learning how the system works and troubleshooting through use of proper engineering tools is the most effective way to go.

So I'm always trying to find new things to do with my Apple II. I was talking with a friend about the Microsoft Softcard and I figured it was time I started to explore CP/M. My question is this - Is the MS Softcard good enough for a solid CP/M experience? Anyone have any experience with a CP/M native machine (preference?) Emulator suggestions?

Thanks.

So I want to make some screen videos of he Apple II screens. Don't want to use an emulator or have a camera.

The challenge is how off the Apple II color video is from real NTSC. There is no guarantee a Composite to USB adapter will pickup the color image. Has anyone had any luck with a specific model or brand. I'm looking for one that is OSX compatible since I have a Mac.

Thanks,
Corey

Greetings. If you've been following my previous thread (Apple II Plus Bad Memory/ROM? - The saga continues), you'll recall that I recently purchased an Apple II Plus motherboard with the intention of using it to replace the faulty motherboard I already had. Unfortunately, it turned out that the eBay motherboard was even less functional than the one I already had.
