Nice Artworks on Manuals

Submitted by tkh on June 3, 2014 - 4:57am

I would like to give a little comment on how creative people back in the days.
Specifically I am using artworks in the books on Apple II for example.

Take for example Randy Hyde's Assembly Language book.
How inspiring it is to have trippy pictures of computer and its inside acting as if they're people.

Also the book Beneath Apple ProDOS with Isaac Newton and falling *DISK ][* instead of Apple (I LMAOed on this one)
- I thank Mr. SpeedyG for this one...

Any reason to keep Hayes Micromodem card?

Submitted by dramsey on June 2, 2014 - 11:43pm

In the last year I've managed to acquire a Micromodem card or two.

I really can't think of a more useless piece of retro-tech. All the same, I'm reluctant to simply toss them in the trash without checking here first. Is there any reason at all to keep these?

Question on ProDOS SYS Files

Submitted by tkh on May 30, 2014 - 4:08am

I have a simple question:
How do you read ProDOS SYS files and possibly edit it?
I know a command to run it, but not to actually view the content.

Also, how do you create a bootable disk of your own program?

My plan is to 'dissect' a program (I got AppleWriter in mind) and learn it.

Apple IIGS PSUs

Is there a version of the Apple IIGS PSU that has a switch for input voltage to select between 110 and 220 volts? To be more specific, has this variation been sold in the US market?

Reading .bin files

Submitted by tkh on May 29, 2014 - 4:55am

I have a question that seems to be basic to you guys but for some reason I am not able to find the answer anywhere.
The question is: How do we read .bin file on Apple II?

I know that .bin files are binary images on any platform. I can easily use it on Linux, but I don't even know how it works on Apple II.
The files in the discussion are "supposed to be" disk images inside a zip archive that I downloaded off the Internet.

A2M6014 RGB monitor on Apple ///

Submitted by dramsey on May 28, 2014 - 4:00pm

Will the A2M6014 monitor work correctly on an Apple ///? Perhaps more importantly, does it come with the requisite cable?

I know this was originally sold for the //gs. I suppose it could be balanced on top of a ///....
