Re: Differences between "understanding apple II" and "u. apple IIe".



    Jim Sather is just disappeared.  I own a copy of "Understanding Apple
II+ & Apple //e" (two manuals).  I will be happy to make some copies and put
them in PDF.  I am not worried about copyright that prohibits to reproduce
in electronically.
