mrad01 0 Report post Posted September 17, 2012 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!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted September 17, 2012 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) So, do you want to sell the IIe?? 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.

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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
