Virtual II and Integer BASIC

Submitted by old_hitech on February 28, 2016 - 11:41am

Hi. I use the Virtual II Apple II emulator and I have no problem emulating an Apple IIe, but I have not been able to create/use an Integer BASIC Apple II. I have been using the APPLE2O.ROM file which I think is a correct ROM file for an Integer BASIC Apple II. When I use this ROM image the Virtual II boots to an asterisk "*" prompt and when I try to do a Control-B into Integer BASIC all I see happening is a 'B" and back to the asterisk prompt. It seems that I am not executing the Control-B command, but I am typing Control-B on the keyboard.

Is the Uthernet II compatible with the Apple //e? And if so, is there any way to send/receive email on the //e?

A couple of neat cards I picked up recently

Submitted by billw on February 18, 2016 - 7:06pm

These cards were part of a piecemeal clone system called the "Appleseed" produced by Douglas Electronics. It was designed as a turnkey system where you could buy only the components that you needed to build a product. There was a small bus board and then all the pieces of the Apple II were available as cards - a CPU system card, a memory system card, a video system card, ROM, IO, etc.

Does Anyone Use The Merlin Assembler?

Submitted by AppleCoder on February 18, 2016 - 4:53pm

I have been having trouble with Apple II Merlin version 1.34 for a LONG time. Running it on the Virtual II emulator with Apple II E ROM, I can enter 6502 assembly programs, no problem. But the OBJ command keeps returning an error upon assembly. Leaving that one out, I enter the Monitor through Merlin and try to run the program by entering '300G' (after inserting ORG $300) but all I get is a listing of that address, not an actual program run.

Does anyone have any solutions? Maybe the name of another good emulator?

Subjective opinion question

Submitted by falter on February 18, 2016 - 11:24am

Totally subjective opinion question. Two Apple IIs. Both are original, both are Rev 02. One is serial number 10000 range dating to late 1978, the other is serial range 16000, dating to early 1979. Is the earlier unit considerably more valuable to you as a collector? Or are they really just one in the same?

Apple MKIII Interface Card

Submitted by darriba on February 18, 2016 - 10:21am

Hi,

I have this Apple MKIII Interface Card by The Concept Keyboard Co. Ltd that came in an Apple IIgs that I bought sometime ago. I've tried to google it, but couldn't find any information about this card. Does anyone know what it is for and what are the different connectors that it has. I'm attaching a few pictures of it.

Thanks,
Ricardo

Seeking advice re: video card

Submitted by skipper1947 on February 15, 2016 - 9:28am

Hello again. The only thing goofy on my IIe is the video jack, which is kind-of twitchy. The display gets fuzzy sometimes, and I found if I shift the cable at the jack, it fixes it. I have switched out the cable for a new one, which leaves the jack itself as the main suspect.

Apple II+ production numbers?

Submitted by falter on February 13, 2016 - 5:21pm

I'm sure this topic has been covered before, although searching forums here didn't pull it up for me. Does anyone know approximately how many II+ units were made? It seems like there is some confusion out there -- the later dot matrix labels seem to end in the high 500,000s, but there are a few with earlier style labels in the 1000000s. Kind of confusing. I'm just wondering how close to end of production mine (SN: 588366) is.

Apple II+ flaky on loading

Submitted by falter on February 13, 2016 - 1:50am

Hey guys,

I have a very late II+ (sn 58xxxx). For some time I had been under the impression certain games, etc., would not work on it at all due to its age or limitations. However, when I got my Rev 02 Apple II, I discovered this software worked on it. So I figured a II+ ought to be more capable than a Rev 02 and ought to run the same software.
