Yikes....so I really do have an early original ][!

Although I'm located in Winnipeg, Manitoba (Canada), I bought it used from
a guy down in the Silicon Valley area back in the summer of 1997 (got it
shipped to me via courier). And the guy who had it before me got it from a
guy who used this Apple ][ to run a BBS down in that area during the
1980's, from what I was told.

After I cleaned it up, it actually looks and works almost like brand new.
Just a wee bit of beige paint along the front edge of the machine where
one would normally rest their wrists on the plastic is ever so slightly
worn away, and the light beneath the POWER "key cap" doesn't work.
