Hi,
passing on my spare apple II GS. Was originally imported as a US 110v model, as the quality is far higher than the tatty GS's we tend see over here. AND the NTSC ones put out proper Woz-style colors in games which is all important!
Its a Rom II.
It has been checked out by TheCorfiot, battery is fine.
He has also converted it to run at 240v.
What's an Apple II GS?
A GS is probably the last apple that truly had 'the hand of Woz' in its creation.
Its a proper apple II, that runs all Apple II software.
Also runs all enhanced GS software.
It has an ensonic sound chip inside.
50hz or 60hz setup in a menu.
Its a TON faster than an apple ii with a 16 bit cpu.
Video output is via composite, or out to scart via a custom lead (TheCorfiot can help as can t'otherbay)
it also has a built in mouse card, built in 40 and 80 cols, 256k (I think) ram, proper NTSC color.
Plus built in disk controller card, serial and adb ports, smartport for hard drives etc, 5 or 6 free expansion slots.
Can boot from 5.25 or 3.5" floppy disks (just get an apple unidisk off ebay) or get an sd emulator card. To start, I suggest making disks from a mac or a pc or going without by using atdpro (google) to pipe disk images over to the apple and running in ram.
asking £130 paypal gift plus £8 signed-for courier please. UK only.
I could *possibly* pass on my spare 5.25" floppy drive £28 but that would be £7 posting on its own (its at a friends)
Sale includes an adb apple keyboard (proper square style keyboard) and a square style mouse.
ALSO will include a 'free' 1mb ram expansion card if it sells quick to an amibayer. it will go to other bay soon.
EDIT! link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_IIGS - and its also got a GUI.
