If anybody's interested in acquiring one of these (Apple-][e) with a dual FDD
(external dual box) and Apple Monitor (color?) I have one out in the car. I'll
wait to see if anybody wants the thing before adding it to the parts heap. I
want $20 (the computer was $9.95, the drives were $5.95, and the monitor cost
$3.95) plus the shipping cost, and I'm guessing when I say it probably works.
It's moderately clean-looking.
BTW, I left a Quadra 650(?) costing $6.95 sitting there on account of this, not
that I wanted it, but it might have had useable parts.

Subject: Apple II for into to microprocessors
Speaking of
this, anybody recommend a "learn about microprocessors"-type
kit? Too bad Heathkit and Radio Shack dont sell such things anymore.. 8-(
Try an Apple IIe. Its simple enough you can look at the motherboard and see
each major part, how its connected, etc. Get a decent intro assembly
language on the Apple II book, and start having fun.
