FT: A3000D for your Apple ][
« on: January 16, 2009, 09:06:11 AM »
Got an Apple ][ (c, e, +, gs)?  Fancy a (stock) A3000D?  Let's talk - PM me for details.

My requirements: Must be a working Apple ][ system with disk drive(s).  230V PSU a big plus.

We each pay our shipping and that's that.
Code 6502 asm or... DIE!!

Oooh, replies!

Yes, I am serious, and yes - as Computolio states - they are very rare over here.

I own a Norwegian Apple ][ clone called the "West PC 800", which is a ][+ clone (IIRC) with some nifty extras (modem, house alarm, IR keyboard, on-board Z80 ++), but unfortunately it's not working anymore, and I don't have enough spare time to fix it.  I will one day, eventually, but it's not happening just yet.

Until then, I'm aiming for nostalgia on a real Apple ][. To program on and see my own old programs, which must be over 20 years old now...if the floppies are still readable.

I'm in the talks with a couple of guys now, and hopefully the trade will take place in the near future.

I think there is an Apple emulation pkg (on Aminet?) that will rum on your 3000.  


I've tried a few emulators, and they are pretty OK, but none of them will read my floppies.  I haven't been able to read any of them on the Catweasel either, I don't think the software behind it is mature enough yet.

I have one Apple IIc left and some software for it for my museum.  After playing with it for 10 minutes (or less), it was clear that any Amiga is far more capable, flexable, updatable, fascinating.  If I had to settle on just one old machine, it would not be an Apple II.


I know, I used to own one many years ago.  So this is more than just a item of curiosity for me... :-)

Anyway, I just made a deal with a mate from down under, so thanks to all who contacted me.
