Hi Everyone.

I am a user of an Apple IIC+! yay! I use mine mostly for Applesoft Basic programming.

Is this a place for those of us who rock Jurassic Apples?

Oh that gave me a flashback, I owned one. My first computer while the rest of the people I know had "Commodores, Ataris , Sinclairs" .

I was the unicorn among in the gang. My parents paid an arm and a leg for it.

Some years later I traded it in for my first 128k Mac. I made a Fat Mac out of it by soldering 16 x 64k RAM chips for 1mb. Stacked 4 times for 4mb with seperate row select wires.

From my first money then I bought an Mac SE/30 and a thermo printer.

Good times.

Oh, yeah! I bought myself a C64 back in the day. A little later I could afford a 1641 floppy drive. I also went on to Macintosh and then to Windows 3.5 and so on. I kinda wish I could get back the TeleVideo X86 machine I got while working there.
