It is an Apple IIe.  Software is easily found.  The simplest
solution is to get the Focus internal hard disk drive card.
The card is a hard drive that plugs into slot 7 giving you
500MB of storage.  It comes with the OS and a library of
freeware and shareware.  Plug and play.  For a little extra,
the company that makes the drive, http://www.allelec.com/
Alltech Electronics will install AppleWorks 3.0, a suite of
integrated software (word processing, spreadsheet, and
database) onto the drive as well.

Note: once HD is installed in system, you start the IIe
by flipping the power switch at which time it boots the
operating system, just like a Mac or PC.
