Apple II

Just wondering, something that could take a real serial mouse and/or PS2/USB etc -- shouldn't be too hard given the most excellent cards that are being developped all around!

I have two slim 5.25" drives.  One is from a Laser 128, the other is a Maple drive.  They both seem to basically work (drive spins, light comes on) but the stepper motor doesn't move the head.  When off, I can manually move the heads without issue.

On the Laser drive, if I slide the head back to track 0, Copy2Plus can verify track 0 but then cannot advance the head for the rest of the tracks.  The Maple drive's head can also move but I can't get it to read track 0.  Maybe that head is dead.

Hey folks, question for you people who have a Floppy EMU...

I followed the thread on Dave's excellent modification to put a Floppy EMU into a Disk ][ case. Unfortunately by the time I got my Floppy EMU and found a drive that I could use (off ebay and yes I'm going to keep the original insides safe), Dave had run out of kits/parts and it may be a few months before he has a chance to release the files. I did see that someone else designed a front panel. I'm wondering if anyone else has done any work similar to Dave's or building on Dave's?

Hey everyone... I'm still working on that IIe that I bought late last year and have been slowly restoring.  I wrote a message on the forums back in December or so and got pointed to Joe's for a new keyboard decoder chip and that fixed that problem right away.  In the months that have followed, I have gotten some more gear and setup what, back in the day, would have been an awesome system, but a new set of problems have cropped up int he meantime.  I suppose that I am stuck now, and could use a little advice.
