What do you mean by Z80?  The Z80 card itself?

Yes, there is a build-in Microsoft Z80 Softcard mapped to slot 4. Therefore slot 4 is missing. Try booting a CP/M disk.

You might also have a keyboard with autorepeat and macro functions. Press and hold a key, it should auto-repeat after a few seconds. Then press and hold the "func" key in the bottom left (usually the one with the power light) and hit another key. This should give you a whole BASIC or CP/M command. Saves a lot of time.


So, I'm presuming you mean an original Apple II plus in Europe is rare?

I don't know if rare is the correct word (there are still many II plus on ebay), but clones were much more common that time. In the '80s, I knew only one guy who owned a genuine Apple, but more than ten people who owned clones.
