Hey what a deal. I paid 10 for mine which included 5 1/4 drive and color
monitor. Didn't realize until later that it is the hotrod of the Apple
II's. It runs at 4 mHz instead of the usual 1 mHz, and I think you can
add memeory up to 512k.

I'm looking for the LCD display that goes with it, as I'd like to be
able to use it as a cheap and dirty RS232 terminal. I have a handful of
3.5" drives in questionable shape that will work on it, or the IIGS.
you can daisychain one 3.5 drive and 2 5.25's and that together makes a
pretty forminable Apple system. There was a hard drive made too, but
that's kinda overkill, as the 3.5" floppies hold 800k anyways.

The trick is finding the DSDD floppies . . . I've found them at hamfests
from older PC users getting rid of old DOS software.

Enjoy . . . .
