Apple II

Hello from a new member

Hello

I just joined because I saw that you had this Apple II forum.

I'm one of those many people from decades ago that used to work on them.
Then I was a member of a BBS called "The PigSty" (where pigfont came from) and worked at Roland US where I also did some Apple II programming for them in my spare time. (I was a fulltime repair tech.)

My first Apple was an Apple II+ with 48K. 1979 or so, I think.
It changed configurations many times, having Sider hard drives, a Dtack68000 board, Gibson Lite pen (I was an early user) and many other bizarre peripherals, some home-made.
I still have some cards and most are shown on my small Apple II page at my website below:

I also recently started playing around with an old Mountain Computer A/D, D/A board and did this small video of what I came up with after a few hours of work:

Fwiw, I also have an Alpha Syntauri 5 octave keyboard I want to sell.
No Mountain music cards or anything else for it, but oh well.
Also some broken Sider drives and controllers lying around I can't use.

Anyway, just wanted to say hi. Smile

System 6.01 RAM requirements?

Just wondering--is there a certain minimum RAM requirement to run System 6.01? I've recreated the floppies from images, but when I boot from disk 1, I get a screen that prompts me to make some sort of backup disk... If I put in a blank disk and attempt to make the backup disk, it gives me an error message; if I click "Cancel" the message disappears but then the computer hangs with the "clock" mouse cursor.

The Apple IIGS Buyer's Guide Now Available Online

I was a bit disappointed to find that The Apple IIGS Buyer's Guide was not available anywhere online. I contacted the former Editor, Paul Pinella, and found that the publisher, Redgate Publishing, had been acquired by America Online several years ago, so I contacted AOL and was able to get permission from them to have www.Apple2Online.com serve as the online host for The Apple IIGS Buyer's Guide.
