apple ][

Recommended Posts

Chaps and chapettes,

I'm on the lookout for an old apple ][ computer from the 80s. Doesn't have to be working, but good condition if anyone knows of one. Usually found at a school in the "old stuff" cupboard...

They look like: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_II

Will pay money

Thanks in advance!!!

Try the eWaste companys in auckland such as computer recycling ltd, mikipro ltd, RCN eCycle, Logics etc. Im pretty sure i have a IIe at work with a matching apple CRT screen (VERY rare to find, they hooked up to a normal TV usually) along with commodore amigas etc, all stuff made before i was born LOL.

I trade as IT Recycla in Wellington.

turns out its a IIc that came in, i found the photo i took of it.

so if i still have it then yep can do, we had about 10 of them come in at one stage, i know we scrapped most of them after trying our luck on trade me with them, but should be one aside.

Its scary that this machine was already 8 years old when i was born lol

I had some Colour Classics come in a few weeks back too, look like baby beige CRT iMacs, sold one on trade me last week for $1.50 so the rest have gone, what a shame you asked this week instead of last!

Nice, the IIC was a pretty sweet machine too...Bit harder to work on unlike the IIe though

Pretty scary alright - especially when I first used an Apple II+ when I was 8 years old (yeah, makes me old. Oh well....)

I'd be really keen on the Apple IIe if you have one around, that'd be awesome!

Let me know.
