A Few Apple II questions...



Ok, here's a few things I've run across in the past few days, I figured
I'd ask them here, due to the fact that everyone is so darn helpful.
<grin> Anyway, some of these may be real 'duh' questions, but I just
haven't had much time to investigate too deeply.

1> I have a Numeric Pad IIe. I originally thought this was for the mac
plus because of the way it looked, but then saw the D(...um...B?...I know
there's a big thing here about DB, DD, DE, etc...) connector on the cable.
Then I went and looked at my IIe's...the two platinums have the num pad
built-in already and the older beige one only has the internal connector.
So, which IIe was this supposed to hook up to?

2> The UniDisk 3.5 doesn't seem to work. I don't actually have the UniDisk
3.5 driver installed (mainly because I can't find it on my system disks,
or anywhere, but then I was sort of cursory in my investigation) for
GS/OS, but shouldn't the drive at least poll at startup? When I start up
the computer it polls the drives like <HDSC20, 5.25, <skip UD3.5>, Apple
3.5>...and each of them shows some sort of activity even if there is no
media in the drive. (And I've tried with disks in and not in the UD). It
inserts and ejects disks fine, just no flashing of the light or spinning
the motor or anything. Bad UniDisk, or is this normal behavior?

2> Was there and apple-made RGB monitor for use with the IIe (with a RGB
card of course)...does the AppleColor RGB (used with my IIgs) monitor work
with the IIc?

Thanks...
