OK, this came to me by a rather circuitous route, but I now have a new in
the box Quadlink by Quadram. It includes all the cables, software, and
documentation (the warranty card is still there).
This card is essentially and Apple II/Apple II+ on an 8-bit ISA plug in
board. I don't know how compatible it is with today's PC equipment. Anyway,
the point of this is: Does anyone want this? Contact me off list if so.
Shipping would be from New Jersey, USA.
I'm always looking for old Tandy items in trade too.

What's the advantage of using this instead of an emulator like AppleWin?

Being able to read Apple diskettes, REAL 6502, . . .
One of the computer labs at the college tried to use them as a transition
step in switching to PCs. Nice idea, but a lot of copy-protected disks
were inaccessible, and they had a SEVENTY PERCENT DOA rate on the
Quadlinks! Even the replacement ones from Quadram had a 70% DOA rate!
One of them that I looked at that was returned "repaired" had one of the
connectors mounted backwards, which COULD NOT have been tested.
If you're into Tandy, look for the Diamond Trackstar128. It had a MUCH
better reliability than the Quadlinks.

I have a TrakStar someplace. But from what I remember
it required a 1-mhz clock, so only an 8088 or similar PC would
work. Guess I'll have to find it, manuals, and check it out
again.
