| After 15 years - FINALLY an Apple IIe! |
Posted by: classic mac 500 on 2007-06-14 10:03:04
My latest conquest is my most treasured... John (co-host of the RetroMacCast) found an Apple IIe and sent it to me. It was just the system and the DuoDisk drive along with some floppies... I'm REALLY REALLY happy! I haven't used one since 1993... I remember such classics as Word and Number Munchers, Oregon Trail, Odell Lake, Speedway Math, along with many others...
There will be a forthcoming Welcome To Macintosh article with pictures telling about the happy reunion.
Does anyone happen to have either a green screen monitor or color monitor for it?
Finally having the Apple IIe absolutely made my lifetime! :-D

I can't say I have an extra monitor but as a quick fix, hook it up to your TV. You'll need an RCA-type video cable. Run it into an input jack like you would a VCR, DVD Player, Nintendo, etc.

Hey Scott... Yeah, I actually have it hooked up to a spare 13" TV I have here. I was just trying to actually find a monitor if someone had one. 🙂

I was looking for a place to get rid of some old mac stuff and i came across this site.
I just came into possession of a nearly brand new ColorMonitor IIe (part # A2M2056). It came from a high school closet and was in a shrink wrapped box until yesterday when i opened it to try to figure out if it still worked.
If you want it you can PM me here and i will hit you up. I will sell it for shipping (however you want it) + $10 for the time to pack it and take it to the post office. I am in Los Angeles if you want to see about how much shipping will cost

edit: It is just the monitor and power cable. no paperwork or connection cable.
