Focus Hard Card Questions - ROM 00/01/03 and issues with ProDOS 8

I recently found an old Focus Hard card for the IIgs (and IIe according to the manual).
The hard drive was bad on it, easily replaced and repartitioned using their software. NOTE: It takes many many hours to format a 30G drive.

The card works with GS/OS on my ROM03 machine just fine.
I reformatted it as regular ProDOS 8 so I could use it in a IIe or my ROM00 IIgs.

There are two problems with this:

Anyone have PDF of Sanyo VM4209 service manual or schematics

I have a monitor that is acting up with a wavy picture. I can't seem to find a trustable website. They all seem to be scams and Sam's doesn't seem to have a copy for sale.

Thanks,

Cross Platform Coding for the Apple ][

Anyone have some success with getting the right tools to setup a workflow for building a cross platform coding on the Apple ][ ?

I'm not sure if this topic has been covered here already. If so, I haven't had luck in finding this info, just some basic material so far.

I found some tools already which I hope someone can give us some advice to build a practical workflow. While helping Evan from the VCFed museum on his Lego robot project, the traditional method of coding directly on the vintage platform becomes a burden when trying to collaborate over the phone, email or online. Because you can't see what's on their screen and you can't share the screen online as with today's desktops. No amount of chit-chatting to summarize the code without looking at it directly is going to help. For the moment, he wants to work with Applesoft Basic, and perhaps later once the bugs are worked out and the project is running, then dive into some 6502 assembly.

Apple II Europlus

Good afternoon, just arrived at this magnificent forum I present here as I have not found the post of presentations. I have for a few months, an Apple 2 Europlus that I have restored and cleaned the aesthetic parts. The computer has a Philips monitor, Languaje Card 16k, Prienter Card, Super Serial Card that I buy to connect Apple 2 to a PC and test the two Floppy disks and two joysticks for games(untested). That being said I will try to put some photography soon to show it.

Do chips just die???

Hi All

Was writing floppys last night (after figuring out how to use adtpro audio) on apple iie. All was going well. Wrote several of the discs i need , disc utilities etc etc

then half way through a disc write the machine just froze.

did a reset - nothing just a screen of lines.

Today i started swapping chips with good iie. The cpu was dead.

Was not even sitting at the machine when it died. Been using this particular machine for a few days with no problem.

Do chips just die?
