mystery machine
My first computer (which I still have, btw) was a ][+ clone in an off
white case with brown around the keyboard. On each side of the case was a
cutout for a dp9 connecter and the keyboard had a combined shift-lock key
and power light as well as a numeric keypad. Certain control key
combinations created commonly used basic/dos commands such as print,
init, etc..Inside on the board there was a z80 cpu besides the 6502.
There was no slot 4, and instead of a slot0, there was a rom slot,
in which sat a card marked rom0. There was a row of eight 64k roms
instead of the usual rom array. In slot 6 there was a Shamrock Computers
Disk Writer II card connected to a half high single sided pc type disk
drive. When I turned on this machine, it printed "EASY ][" instead of
"APPLE ][". There are no identifying lables of any kind anywhere on this
machine.
I was wondering if anyone could identify this computer for me... Thanks
in advance...
