First, I want to thank all of you who have answered some of my questions.
The results are proving to be working well; especially with the conversion
of IBM BASIC to Apple BASIC. There are some minor differences, like when
randomizing from 1. With MS basic the command has you randomize from 0, but
with Apple BASIC, you actually have to randomize from -1. I haven't had any
problems running most of the MS programs on the Apple though.
Now on to my next little problem. There appears to be more wrong with the
Apple monitor that came with the lle. I have been looking on E-Bay,
Amazon.com and even the Vintage Computer Forums web site for a replacement
display. There just doesn't seem to be one out there. I have been running
the Apple using the composite jack into a small television, but I really
want to have an original display for my lle. Does anyone here have one I
could purchase, or know where I might be able to find one? I don't care if
it is a monochrome or color display, I just want something original to the
system. There is no big hurry here, so if you have one or can point me in
the right direction, that would be a great help.
BTW, I know this is off topic, but yesterday I completed the deal for a
complete 1981 IBM PC 5150 computer system for only $200.00. It is
absolutely perfect. It has the 2 internal 5 1/4 floppies, color graphics
controller upgrade, original XT model F keyboard and monitor. It came in
the original boxes, packaging, and even has the original manuals and
documentation for the upgrades.
I am definitely in Xanadu here guys and gals!
