does the RAMWORKS IIII include the functionality of the 80 column text card?

I like your videos

I’m still waiting for someone to clone the ZIP chip. I’ve recreated my //e from my childhood with everything but the ZIP chip.

Is there a way to utilize this as a USB adapter that could tie to a Linux box running netatalk?

Joe, did you ever produce these boards? I don’t see them in your store

Just found this!! When is the album coming out? Thanks for sharing

Woohoo! Fixed!!

Very interesting interview Joe!

The second song is: Downtown!

Thanks Joe-you always have great info

Interesting video! Thanks for sharing.

Will this converter work with Apple High Resolution RGB monitor for Macs to work with the IIgs?

Why you didnt just save it to a disk and on any linux machine or maybe even any machine just read the disk? I just write files directly to disk from linux and they work on my mac lc 2 and 3 no problem.

You can't even always trust the case. My Kaypro 1 case says "Kaypro 2" in one spot and "Kaypro 1" in another, which led to me ordering wrong disks the first time

For what the board is, it seems a bit expensive

Great story. I bought a 128K Mac in February 1984. I subsequently upgraded it to a 512K, added a third-party SCSI port, and finally upgraded it to what by then was a very expensive Mac Plus (around $4500 counting all the upgrades on top of the original $2500). I sold it to a friend in the late eighties, so I have no idea what became of it-or for that matter the original back when I got the Plus upgrade. It's easy to understand your difficulty getting an original back. Question: How were you able to shoot video of the screen without any flicker?

Love your videos, I have an Apple IIe that gives me the RAM: message after doing the hold both Apple s on each side of the space bar and turning the machine on. It does this with the RAM card in and no RAM card installed. It does not tell me which chip is bad. Any ideas?

Can i use bluescsi on an mpc 2000??

Can it the card be narrowed so that it does not block the neighbor slot? Can mouse and mockingboard both be implemented in slot 4?

Going to have to get on of these for sure!

Thanks for the very cool video. I was unaware of this project 👍Maybe update the text description of the video with links to the project\design. I am still watching the video, so that info might be included somewhere further in the video, but it still would be helpful to have in description. Also, when watching the desktop capture, the text is a tad too small to read.

what's the tune at 12:35?? PLEASE. google couldn't tell.

What is Total Reply ?? Is it some online game directory that downloads the game off the internet similar to fujinet ?? Educate me on that please.

I work overnight … so putting on my earphones and just letting this video play helps pass the time. Feels like I’m there but permanently set on mute. Lots to learn.

Enjoyed the stream Joe

Not really a Apple II Drive....

Nice. Is this a closeup of a CPU on a PC that's burning up?

Where to get the convient packed in danish, for os/2warp?

That piggy-backed ram chip hack is clever.

Apple 3 souonds like advanced level, for using real hardware.

What was your process for the wash in the sink? It looked like you used some type of soap? How long to dry?

Do were have to “REPEAT FOUR TIMES” when watching this video? 🤣

Awesome video! Sunscribed. Thanks.

14.318 /2 , 7.159 / 456 will get you to 15.75 khz.. Divide your clock by two and chain two 74ls161 together preloaded to 56. Feed that into your vertical counter, the same setup 262 count 240-244 are vsync. I know this is an old video and you probably moved on but thats another method

He’s not wrong. There is he apple squeezer that is cheaper but provides more ram as well as a large 240mg ram drive.

The second machine you got to source and fix stuff from, it was born around the same time I was since my 40th birthday is also this month! Happy Birthday Mac (and me!)

Nice work Joe! 🔧

Thanks Joe, that was great!

You're my hero

I love the personal take on this one, Joe! These old Macs are always *personal* to those who own them. I have a "European" 128K (M0001P -- 240V), built in Fremont, CA in late May 1984. (As far as I've been able to find out, shipments to Europe began in April, so this is an early one). The board is completely unmodified and also has the "Macintosh" only badge on the back (not Macintosh 128K). Happy 40th Mac! :-)

Great job Joe

I saw the 1984 Mac commercial in a movie theater once in the mid eighties before the movie ran. I think the movie was “Oh God You Devil”. It was so strange because I thought the movie had started. Then the voiceover said “On January 1984, Apple will introduce Macintosh” which shocked me because the family had an Apple IIe at home that I loved and it was already late 1984! I had never heard of this new computer! It was so hard to get any information back then as a kid. 😊

Great video, Joe! I have a 512, but a 128 is still on my wish list.

I liked upgrading my old Macs to maximum RAM and VRAM! 😊

Great video!

It's as "original" a Macintosh as you're gonna get without finding one "new in box" forgotten in the back of the storeroom of an original dealer. The Macintosh not only changed text-based computing to graphical interface computing and put the mouse into public awareness, but it also introduced "the rest of us" to the wonder of a variety of fonts! Before the Mac, we were all stuck with whatever had been established as the "system" font. These could occasionally be modified through low-level program control, but such modifications usually couldn't be reproduced in another program.

The flyback transformer is holding up well?

I got a Mac Plus after having an Apple II. I got an educational discount plus I bought it during boxing week for additional savings. The one megabyte of memory was mind blowing for the time. Later I got a scsi hard drive & the speed was incredible!
