Apple IIe's awaiting inspection

Those aren't yours are they? Only Michael Mahon would bring more than two of each model.

Comment by Mike Maginnis on July 4, 2012 at 4:09pm

:P They're mine, but I'm not bringing them all.  Just three or four to give away.

I guess with three or four that means you're driving!  And it does mean that only half of the collection is (sniff) relocating.

Make sure they go to a no-kill shelter.

Part of me is excited for NOT having to be in KC in 100 degree weather this summer but the vast majority is totally bummed that I'm not going to be there!

I blame Navis for ruining KFest for me by sending the Retro Computing Roundtable guys. It used to be a quiet gathering of friends but now they're going to have a Commodore lover (shiver) there.  Ew. Way to ruin it Navis.

Of course you could ship your precious machines with Navis and still fly!

(So, Carrington, do I get the $10 for the plug or what?)

Carrington will only pay you in beaver pelts.

I always drive to KFest.  I plan to hold on to two or three Apple IIs and the rest are coming with me.  Whatever doesn't get taken at Rockhurst goes to eBay.

Unless I get better private offers.... ;)

Nice to know that not all the apples will be emulated in KC.

If one of those platinum one turns out to be broken, I may be interested in the "/" key off the number pad. :)

Jason - email me at mike at 6502lane dot net.  I have a couple of Platinum keyboards that I have been cannibalizing for working machines.  I have a "/" key, if you want it.
