Re: Apple III developers - Was there ever such a thing?

Cool. Thats great. I think Ill need a little help then. I have been
scouting around the web, but info seems to be a bit light on. It would
seem that I am a long way from booting my III (bits) - I really must
find a complete apple III at some point, but they are just so rare now
days. I was really trying to find out what "RETRY" actually meant.

Anyway, Carte Blanche produces a good image from a III, it has
artifacts now and then (timing) but both 40 and 80 (132?) columns look
as good as the II - as far as development goes, this is a brilliant
start.

Once again, I gotta take my hat of to Alex. I do believe he's created
another first. SVGA for the AIII.
