Apple II forums ?
Posted: Sat Jan 07, 2017 11:29 pm
I am retracing my own history with computers. My first was a two prong VIC-20 (UK, PAL) back in 1982. My next system was a secondhand Apple II Europlus, which was a major upgrade as it came with floppy drives and had a (seemingly huge) 48K!!
I am considering buying an Apple II (probably a //e) off of eBay but I am trying to educate myself a bit first about modern peripherals and attempting to find any kind of community around the machine. Unlike the Commodore machines which are well served by Denial and Lemon 64, the Apple II scene seems to be fragmented across many low-bandwidth forums.
Does anyone know of a good Apple II forum out there?
My primary interest right now is to find out about SD card adaptors (similar to SD2IEC for Commodore) so I can download disk images from the Internet and run them on a real system. I have a crazy idea that maybe I can use Appleworks to do real work on such a system! (Back in the day, my II+ wasn't able to run Appleworks ...)
(I am asking here because Denial rocks!)
