Contents
Specification
- Apple II+ (serial number not found) (+ cards, see below)
- Sony PVM-90CE monochrome monitor
- Dual floppy drive.
Origin
Donated by the University of Antwerp around 1993. The monitor is rumoured to have been their first computer display.
Condition
- Working condition.
- Logo badge is missing.
Done
The original full-height 5,25" drive got broken. I've replaced it by two (smaller) drives.
To Do
Try CP/M.
Expansion Cards
Following cards are installed:
- slot 0: 16KB RAM expansion "language card"
- slot 3: 80 columns display card
- slot 4: Z80 "soft card" for running CP/M (t.b.t)
- slot 6: Disk II interface card
There are bunch of other, currently unused cards:
- D780C (Z80 clone)
- Disk II + Shugart
- Unidentified, has a 26 pin flat cable connector and only an EEPROM and 74LS ICs.
- Unidentified, TV modulator ?
Software
- Apple DOS 3.3 with various programs:
- Visicalc
- Games: Castle Wolfenstein
- Prodos 8 v1.9 with ADTpro
- CP/M with various programs (t.b.t)
Data Exchange
Using ADTPro over the audio/cassette port allows to transfer disk images (.DSK) to and from physical 5 1/4" floppies.
It takes about 20 minutes for a 180KB disk side, requires trial-and-error adjusting of mic and headphone volume on the PC side and good audio cables. Once it's set up it is fairly reliable.
