Re: Just bought an Apple II - it works!
Hi a][,
First of all I would like to express my sincerest thanks to everyone
who assisted me in the initial setup.
You guys were right, I did not need the cable with the adaptor. As I
was cleaning the innards, as per the suggestion of one of you, I found
another cable under the one with the adapter, that cable was somehow
tightly wrapped intoio a coils and I did not notice it. it was the
video out cable, I connected it to the monitor and voila, there it was.
Very impressive boot-up time, I have to say, less than a second?
Anyway, now what?
I have the empty screen with the Apple ][ logo on the top,
control-reset brings up a command line.
What can I use this old baby for?
Someone suggested that the 2 externla drives might have been exchanged.
(Drive 2 whirls when the comoputer starts up). Is it necessary to fix
that? Can I connect it to a Personal laserwriter NTR?
