A friend of mine showed me a picture today in one of
her text books of
kids using what appeared to be Apple]['s (or Apple//e's, it was a bad
picture). However, the name plate on the machines were visible, and they
said Bell & Howell. The same for the disk drives, which were obviously
Disk]['s. Did Apple license Bell & Howell to make these machines? If they
did, did they license other companies as well?
Apple did make a black Apple II Plus with the Bell & Howell name on it.
Apparently it was a way for Bell & Howell to get into the educational
market. Since I first heard about it a month or so ago, I'm keeping my eyes
open to see if I can get one!
