I am just not sure yet how much practical modern computing I can do with the old technology
Hey, my old home town of Madison Maine got it's first public access bulletin board back in '95 when I sold them my A1000. I can't remember what the programs name was (TVText I think), but it required a script to run the pictures. I had to spend a lot of time helping to run the thing! The guy assigned by the town council was an old bookseller who never really "got it" as far as handling the display program. Then the High School Librarian, who was in charge of the computer bought a 1200 with Scalla. But it was shut up in a cabinet, and the heat buildup caused problems with the 1200. Ultimately, they went with a PC, because there was no support for the 1200.
It was fun, taking the old A1000 into the council room and demonstrating TVText. They were impressed enough, that they wrote me a $800 check, which
promptly went into buying an A500!
So, check EBAY out, people often seem to sell old programs there, and you'll probably find all sorts of cool stuff to put on it.
