Nice looking IIe there, Bas! :thumbsup: If I had space, I would be tempted to get myself a IIe Platinum with full keyboard.
I'm sure you'll be very happy with it, although we could never afford one when i was a kid, all the schools had them (they were about 4x more expensive than a C64 back in the day), theres tons of software out there for them , in fact many of the same ones that came out on Commodore had an Apple II version..Quote:

i was lucky enough to acquire several systems (4 IIes and 3 IIGSs, all with memory expansion) from the Hackery 3 or so years ago, as well as a bunch of drives (7x 5.25" / 3x 3.5") for not too much money.
with the serial card (and a null modem cable) , ADT Pro will let you copy disks over at a pretty good rate, unless you can track down a decent SD/USB option...
also a couple games that came out only for the Apple II (iirc) were some of my favorites, The Bilestoad, Odyssey: the Compleat Adventure and Titan Empire
Bas, this is a pretty good SDsolution for the Apple II. I've got one and been very happy with it.

Cheers guys, i am really enjoying her :D
@saviorx
ADT Pro is indeed a very good and efficient bit of software, i have been able to write quite a few disks from images served by a PC connected to the super serial card. Takes about 40seconds to write a full disk from image..
Most Cool indeed :D
This is my latest acquisition :D

the ideal would be to boot the apple and be presented with a menu but I dont know if thats what this one is about.
cheers for advice!
regret I'm not finding a lot of answers on this board, I've seen it mentioned before but cant quite find the exact details..
Iainjh, the SD Disk II comes with a bluetooth module which enables you to connect to the device with a mobile phone or tablet, using a terminal program. You can do the selections there. It comes also with a selector knob and I think there is now also an optional lcd display. The amount of images is restricted by the size of the SD card. Only one image can be active at a time though. Also, the SD Disk II cannot work in HD and floppy mode at the same time.
