What cable to use to connect an Apple II to a plasma TV

Submitted by arukum17 on April 28, 2008 - 10:43am

Dear fellow Apple II enthusiasts

I am shortly going to receive an original Apple II from 1979
I would like to connect this to my existing modern plasma TV (the horror!!)
Please advise what cable I should buy:
as I will be ordering from the internet the more specific you can be the better.

Thanks for your help.

cc65 - mixing C and assembler

Submitted by jaksel on April 23, 2008 - 4:14pm

I have some questions about the cc65 compiler, and how to mix C and assembler. I have taken a routine written in assembler, and "encapsulated" it in a C function. But some things are a bit tricky...

1) according to the documentation for the inline assembler, one can use the format specifier %o to reference a local variable in the stack. But it does not mention how to access that variable. I looked at the assembler code from a compiled C function, and saw that this C code:

Apple ][+ problems

Submitted by FunnymanSE30 on April 20, 2008 - 11:08am

Yesterday, i recieved 3 apple II+
One works pretty well buy I have an "Expandaram" card that wont work with it.
The second one just boots to a screen that's just one solid blank color.
The last one was working for awhile, I was using it and went to wiggle disconnect a cable on the inside, my hand slipped and hit one of the cards, knocking it out of a slot, no the computer shows just 4 bars on the screen. I don't know what i killed on the motherboard, but i hear that pretty much every chip is still available except the roms.

looking for Apple II Emulator on Linux

Submitted by SchwindS on April 18, 2008 - 1:03pm

Hello,
i'm looking for a Apple II Emulator that work's fine with Linux (Ubuntu 7.10)
At this time I use DOSBOX (Dos Emulator) and later a ApplePC 2.52 for Dos

Did anyone know Apple II Emulator that works with Linux.

It should be easy to use and install like AppleWin for Windows.
or should I try AppleWin with a Windows Emulator like Wine (Wine is a Windows Emulator)?

using adtpro->IIgs, why would a 1999 G3 PowerBook but not a 2008 MacBook Pro transfer successfully?

Submitted by vphco on April 12, 2008 - 4:01am

i've successfully transferred disk images using my old PowerBook but when i use the same USB->DB9 adapter on my new MacBook Pro i can't get images to transfer to my IIgs. the weirdest bit is that when i enter "Receive" mode on the IIgs and type the name of the disk image i want to use, the disk image name pops up on the MacBook Pro's adtpro server window and the IIgs moves on to the disk selection screen--but when i select the disk and it starts the copy screen the progress stops at Block 00001 of 0000280. any thoughts?

thanks guys!

Ideas for new Apple II games

Submitted by jaksel on April 8, 2008 - 10:24am

I want to start developing for the Apple II, and I need some ideas for new games. I'm aiming at a fairly advanced action game (perhaps something like "Wavy Navy" ). Or maybe a Pacman-style labyrinth game.

I also started wondering; are there any new Apple II games coming out nowadays? I mean from non-commercial sources, like hobbyists.

Apple //GS just boops

Submitted by Hawaii Cruiser on April 7, 2008 - 5:56pm

I found a //GS that someone was discarding. I plug it in and all it does is a short, soft "booop," and that's it. Clock battery is dated 1988. It has an Apple memory expansion card. This is my first encounter with an Apple //. I'm guessing it requires an external floppy or disk drive for a system. What should I do with it? Does it have any value?
