ProFiles encouraged

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 […]

It’s Business Time

Today, we have the Apple II Business Graphics package. I was surprised to discover that it didn’t seem to be archived in any of the places I looked, but it also turned out to be kind of a beast to copy. Even Apple-branded stuff back in the day was copy […]

Packing Lisa

Some packing lists and other stuff from Lisa 2/XL. I have some manuals as well, but this is all the little miscellany. Lisa 2 packing list Lisa 2 accessories packing list Lisa software license agreement Lisa hardware registration card Lisa add-on memory board packing list Lisa add-on memory card installation […]

Apple III publications

I just recently got a pretty big haul of Apple III stuff, including a bunch of boxed software (quite a bit of it still shrink-wrapped), and also a number of newsletters and catalogs. I’ve scanned what I have of the newsletters. One that was new to me is The /// […]

Softalk issues

Sooner than I’d anticipated, I’m back on the blog. I’ve scanned a couple of my issues of Softalk, and as an experiment, I tried putting them in a shared folder on box.com, since I happened to have a bunch of space available there. But the downloading interface is not optimal, […]

Supercalifragilistic Epson Alidocious

QX-10 Operations Manual (1983) Microsoft BASIC for the Epson QX-10 About Your Geneva PX-8 Documentation Epson Software Licence […]

Mountain Hardware cards

I’ll write more about this shortly, but I recently got a really nice and complete Apple II plus system setup, complete with a couple of Mountain Hardware cards and manuals. Almost all of this system was purchased at the end of November, 1979, so these cards are from that era. […]

Compaq MS-DOS 3.1

In support of my two Compaq Portables (II and III), I got myself a copy of the official Compaq 3.1 version of MS-DOS and BASIC. At least for the Compaq Portable II, my understanding is that this is the latest version (oddly, apart from MS-DOS 6.0) that it can run. […]

Hey hey hey

Here’s another bunch of scans, this time the materials accompanying the Texas Instruments TI 99/4a. I have two of these, and recently got a nanoPEB, so I’m all set to play with them and report back here. Once I can find the time. Meanwhile: Read this first! TI 99/4a User’s […]
