This is the Apple III ProFile Sales Kit, for dealers, to encourage customers to buy a ProFile. I have scanned the contents of the binder here: Apple III ProFile Sales Kit (PDF) It came with a bunch of Backup III disks (the program and then a 6-disk set, designed to be restored […]
I have long been meaning to post these somewhere, but I will post them here for now. These are a few Apple /// disks that an online friend of mine, Ian, imaged from disks that he had around that were labeled as being for the Apple ///. I have not gone […]
I recently got ahold of an Apple III software package I had never really heard of before, the Apple III Record Processing Services (RPS). It provides libraries that allow developers to add database functionality to their applications. At this point, I have not explored it or really tested it out, I […]
I recently received a great collection of On Three magazines and I am working through them to fill in some of the holes in the collections on the net. I have started scanning on the tail end of the run, partly just because they were the easy ones. As of […]
Apple’s ProFile drive, designed (clearly) for use with the Apple ///, came in a couple of variations, and quickly made its way to the Lisa and Apple II as well. They came in 5MB and 10MB varieties (the 10MB versions are quite rare now), as distinguished by their model numbers […]

Also scanned today were a few bits of miscellaneous paperwork. Not sure if they’re useful for anything, but they’re for some reason mildly intriguing. This came from the purchase of an Apple II plus system and related things in October and December 1982. [Update: four more, from an Apple III, […]
So, I got an Apple ///, and as reported earlier, it started up to the “RETRY” prompt successfully, but when I put any disks in the drive, it made a godawful racket. There was clearly something not quite right about the internal drive. As it happens, though, I just recently […]
Today I got another label: It was attached to this: Yep. One more thing. Let us never forget the glorious victories of the past: World War I, World War II, ][+, //e, and //c. —What about ///? —We don’t talk about ///. (at 3:22 in the full version of “1944”) […]
