Re: Apple II Euromod / Apple II Europlus

[dbackenkoehler@t-online.de]

Steven, obviously several Apple IIs have been imported to Europe before the europlus came out. The first German inporter BASIS MICROCOMPUTER started officially in l978 (They are the company that developed the BASIS 108 when Apple terminated their contract). If I'm not mistaken already the Rev. 1 board had those 60/50 Hz conversion lugs computers mofified accordingly could qualify as euromods already. 

When production/assembly started in Cork in mid 1980, it seems that they shipped II and IIeuroplus computers in the beginning. I have one of those II "euromods" in my collection. It was produced in mid 1980 (rev. 7 mainboard from 8036). The serial number sticker on the back is black on white like the US II. Serial numbers seem to have started with 500000 whereas the europlus started with 600000 (green on white sticker).

> Many people have Apple II Europlus computers they have collected. Has ANYONE ever seen the Integer BASIC Apple II "Euromod" in the wild? Does anyone know if this was actually sold under this name (it was in an Apple catalog, "Apple - The Personal Computer Magazine & Catalog, Vol 1, No 2") If so, did it look any different from a US Apple II standard?
