I too have an original APC with graphics board and all documentation. It still works.

I also have one that works. No docs for it though, and very little software.
http://old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?st=1&c=996 is my actual machine.
I also have 2 old APC I machines with the 8" drives. Not sure of their status
since I have no s/w.
I'm in the process of downsizing the collection, so I am considering letting
these go. If anybody around Massachusetts might be interested, drop me a line.

I did the MSDOS port for that machine! Sorry, don't have anything
from those days. I barely remember it though, big
desktop? Color
monitor? Two 8" flops side by side? Something like that...

I used to sell 'em.... I remember the very distinctive
"sthnurr-sthnurr-sth-sthnirrrr" noise those drives made - when one was
used to the Shugarts of the time...
Did they not have dual processors? One to compute and one to I/O?
