Cards, Cards, and more Cards.

Submitted by gsmcten on December 10, 2009 - 6:10am

Baskets full of expansion cards ( Not BIG baskets, lol )have shown up on eBay the last few days.
AE and other manufacturers' 1.5 Meg Memory cards, 1 Meg memory cards, RGB cards, ROM cards, Accelerators, Controllers, modems, etc.
They all have reasonable starting bids associated with them and they all seem to be in pretty good shape. Some are just the cards (with or without associated cables) and some come complete in the box with software.
It's a good time to look for expansion cards if you are in the market, or have a wish list to be filled.

Ah Yes.....It's an Apple II Christmas on eBay

Submitted by gsmcten on December 1, 2009 - 5:33am

Why is it that every year about this time folks break out thier "Lost Treasures!", "Kept in a closet for 20 years!", "Squeaky Clean!", "Ultra Rare!!" Apple II and Mac items?

They could have placed these things up for auction any time during the year and probably sold them with no problems for a reasonable amount, but they always wait until Christmas when they think that they can jack up the price (not only of the item, but for shipping too) and get away with it.

Crack screens of old games

Submitted by mbarron on November 14, 2009 - 8:02am

Lately I've been looking at the cracked games of old Apple IIs and I've become really interested in the cracked screens/signatures. How was this done? I thought it would be fun to try and do it myself.

Videx 80col card question..

Submitted by A2forever on November 10, 2009 - 3:20am

Hey guys , I jsut picked up a close to mint condition Videx 80Col card for my II+ . Not exactly sure how it hooks up , other then it will reside in Slot #3 of the II+ . There is a small PC board that also connects to this card , and instructions state to install it in F14 spot on the motherboard? No idea where that is exactly. does one need this board to make this work , or is this some kind of enhancement for the board? Which makes me wonder because there is a POT setting on this board , I would assume that it is for adjustments in Video....

Submitted by gsmcten on November 8, 2009 - 8:57am

Two interesting items today:

1. An Original Apple II with a lot of extras. Ebay item 250524163988.
Current price is $300.00 with four days left.

2. An Apple IIgs "Woz Limited Edition". This IIgs is "ROM 03" (this is kind of hard to beleive). I always thought the limiteds were ROM 01.
Asking Price $666.66. No; computer is not brand new.
Ebay item 150387133575

So far the Original II seems to be the best buy I've seen in a while. There is another one listed,but has a starting price of $525.00. No bids yet.
