Apple IIe Platinum in Bad Shape

Submitted by cbmeeks on October 9, 2017 - 1:21pm

My addiction has caused me to purchase another Apple IIe. This time, a Platinum IIe that is in very poor condition (but I got it cheap).

This one looks to have some text CARVED into the case. Not the top cover but just above the keyboard (which is missing keys). I haven't received the unit yet so I don't know how deep it goes.

Recapping an Apple II Power Supply

Submitted by KF5SDR on October 7, 2017 - 6:29pm

How would I go about recapping an Apple II power supply? How do I get the board out to replace the capacitors? I would like to be able to repair it, put it together again and install it in my Apple //e to replace the PC power supply hack-job I currently have.

On the CPU, the IRQ is lead to the box that contains the following

IRQ L, 2,3,4,7,5,8

Market for Mockingboard Replica?

Submitted by cbmeeks on October 5, 2017 - 2:18pm

I know original vintage Mockingboards are sought after. I've built my own in the past based on the Bill Garber design. There really isn't much to it.

So, I was wondering...is there still a market for clone Mockingboards in 2017/18? I know that Kim guy has one for the IIc that looks pretty cool. But I'm talking about for the IIe.

I'm itching to build and produce a card for the IIe but I'd like other people to benefit too.

Byte Shops!

Submitted by 1978AppleII on October 2, 2017 - 10:50am

I was wondering if anyone had any photos or other ephemera from the old Byte Shop chain.

I had a friend who was studying computers back in the late 1970's, and when a Byte Shop computer opened in my home town he literally dragged me there even though I had no interest whatsoever.
