I could absolutely do Apple II & Apple /// Compatibility!
You should check out the Apple II…
We're talking about the Apple I/II, not things that happened decades later.
Apple II, lets hear it for hypercard programming!!
The Apple II was not a kid (though there was a board-only version available if you asked). You're thinking of the Apple I. The Apple II was a complete, assembled system in a box from the factory. You bought it, plugged it into your TV and tape deck, and started coding. Frankly it was the most out-of-the-box-integrated programmable hardware available at the time.
Interesting that the Apple I and II are listed under "Mac desktops".
For people who didn't hack apple IIs, can you expand on what's going on there?
I knew the Apple II, and you sir are no Apple II.
amen - and it's slower than a apple II
You're right, it was more Apple II (or similar) than Mac. The brands have blurred in my mind with time!
