Submitted by Pat on May 3, 2004 - 10:12pm

Is there any way to open old prodos appleworks data files in appleworks6? I have a data base that I need to use on a newer computer and the data base was created and used on an apple IIgs.
I'd appreciate any help.

Memory hacks . . .

Submitted by jt on May 3, 2004 - 1:21pm

. . . RAM disks and maximum RAM configs for the Apple II series.

I usually do my own homework, but this is sort of a sideline interest for me . . .

. . . and since AF2.0 has close to ZERO activity lately, I'll just ASK for a change! Acute

Value? Rarity? IIc+ thang

Submitted by theslownorris on April 29, 2004 - 12:09am

I have an Apple IIc+ w/ this card... a Applied Engineering "RAM EXPRESS II," it has a battery (indicating a clock?) and all of the sockets are filled.

I'm assuming that this means it has a full meg as my google searches have turned up that a full meg was the only card made for this machine (one by Apple, the other by AE)???

Free SuperDrive mechanisms

Submitted by Wayne on April 25, 2004 - 4:08pm

I need to either know they'll be going to a home or I have to dumpster at least 20 superdrive mechanisms in the next few days. These are the 1.4mb mechanisms you would use to upgrade a IIgs 800k drive to 1.4mb. Of course you'd also need a superdrive card to use it as more than an 800k drive in an Apple II.

IIc Software

Submitted by hekc on April 14, 2004 - 12:54am

So I was wondering how to get software (say from the asimov FTP site) from the net onto my IIc? I have an 8500, a TiBook, and some breed of Pentium. Anyone of these machines can get the software but it's a matter of getting it off those machines onto my IIc and hopefully onto some of the spare 5.25 in disks I have laying around.

Other Monitors for Apple II computers

Submitted by woogie on April 14, 2004 - 12:13am

Has anyone here ever used another monitor other than the
stock Apple "green" mono-monitor or the Apple RGB monitor
on their computers? If so, what did you use? How well did
it perform? What hardware/software changes did you have to

SMT Vidtech 80/64: Need Info Please

Submitted by LTong on April 8, 2004 - 3:57pm

I went thrift shopping today and found a unique item. A "Vidtech 80/64 Video Card" for the Apple IIe, still in it's original packaging and shrink wrap. I googled a bit and couldn't find anything. Same story for eBay. The description on the box reads "80 Column Video Card with 64K Memory for the APPLE IIe Computer" I don't dare open it until I know what I've got, so I can't describe the card at all. If anyone's at all familiar with this item, I'd like to hear about it.

My First Apple II

Submitted by woogie on April 7, 2004 - 10:02pm

In an effort to bring together owners, hackers and folk who appreciate the early efforts of Apple Computers Inc. I thought it would be a good idea to start this thread. It may bring back memories of your first experiences with computers in general as well as with Apples. Some of us were introduced to Apples in school, others in the workplace, and some just picked them up as hack projects. Let's hear form you all. Maybe we can get some new insights and ideas for projects, hacks, or new uses for an old favorite.

IIgs 4meg RAM board

Submitted by vbriel on April 2, 2004 - 6:06pm

For a friend to produce I built a 4Meg RAM card for the IIgs. Its been done before but I used 1Meg SIMMS to create the board. Actually it was pretty easy, I need to run RAM test to verify it works properly but it should.
