Now I'm not an expert on these, indeed I know
nothing at all about apples,
but these look pretty weird to me - are they actually what they say they
are, and really common? eBay item 5219329581 (expensive as usual, so no
bids) for three linotype boxes, one of which has a disc drive with an apple
logo on it. (Listing has some larger pics linked from it).
It looks like a rack mounted Apple ][ assembled by Linotype-Paul (now
called Linotype-Hell). They made typesetting equipment.
This certiantly looks like the front end of an electronic typesetter.
