Buggie Pro-A2 Paper
Did I miss the posting about the publishing of this?
Stephen asked for ideas for a pro Apple II paper that he was writing, oh,
about a year or so ago (Y2K compliant, inexpensive, wealth of programs, 5.25"
disks excellent security against someone taking a disk and reading confidential
material from it on their newer computer, etc). Sure could use some ammunition
with the school district now issuing a policy of no repairs for any computers
over five years old, unless the individual school sites pay for them.
Don't worry. With comp.sys.apple2, my Apple II computer club, a library of
manuals and eBay, I plan to keep at least one school site populated with Apple
IIs throughout my teaching career!
Got to use my own favorite computer saying again today when an administrator
was ribbing me about those "valuable" Apple II computers in my classroom:
"Teachers ask me all the time what kind of computer is best for the classroom.
I tell them, 'One that is still there on Monday morning after the break in
over the weekend.'"
