Apple II

I was wondering if anyone had an interesting anecdote or two I could include in an upcoming book I'm working on with Matt Barton for Taylor & Francis, "Vintage Game Consoles: An Inside Look at Apple, Atari, Commodore, Nintendo, and the Greatest Gaming Platforms of All Time." It's due out later this year and is the next entry in the "Vintage Games" series. We're working anecdotes and quotes into the book from both insiders and passionate users. Naturally, since I'm asking here, this would be for the Apple II chapter.

Hi,

I using the ADTPro Client to transfer some software to my Apple II.
I am using the Audio client. And I can transfer ProDos and the Audio Client. But if I press D or R to send some dsks or lsit the dir the mic level goes on max. settings 4 bars up for a second and then nothing happend. On Apple II screen stand: Waiting for host reply, esc cancels. On ADTPro Client stand No activity. What else can I do? Cables are new, level changing did not work.

I'm using an MacBook Pro from 2010.

regards Christopher.

OK so I got a hold of an early raised power button Apple II keyboard and I started looking though my spare cases to mount it. Well it turns out I have an Apple II case in really bad condition, nicked and scratched plastic top and a bottom plate with some rust spots I need to refinish (bottom plate will be easy, mask the serial number sticker before or carefully remove and replace before/after painting black). Ok the cover doesn't have a logo plate anymore, but they do come up on eBay every so often.

So I got an Apple II plus with a CPM card and a thunderclock card (I understand needed to I don't have to enter the date and time when I start CPM)

The question I have is... If I already own an Altair and a Sol-20 which both can run CPM if I want to, what can I do with an Apple II CPM Card that I can't do with them? I'm trying to decide if I should keep both the CPM and Thunderclock cards.

Thanks,
Corey
