I just bought one on EBay. This computer is compatible with Apple II. You can run most Apple II Basic programs on it.\
|
||||
For software, haven’t seen anything yet.

I just bought MPF-II in a good condition from internet auction. The computer and external keyboard work, connected from "Monitor" output to the flat TV.
|
||||
|
||||
I did not know about the existence of such a model until I saw it at auction. Is there any resource available where one can download any software, preferably as .WAV files for loading through the Cassette interface.
|
||||
|
||||
I have also 5 "official" cassettes with it: PYRAMID, MICRO-NURSE, SNAKE, BURN-OUT, BLITZ, but have zero knowledge are these tapes still readable.

text: Does anyone know of any resources online for the MPF-II? Besides the TK2000, I can''t seem to find any games, programs, or much of anything. It would be nice if there were some preservation project or similar (I might possibly even be able to contribute, I''m in the process of recovering the data off the tapes I got, but I only got a few games and sadly it does not look like I''ll be able to recover all of them, the tapes are just not in very good condition any more).

text: Had one as Kid in 1975 (100$) sure it was imported by a company in Stockholm, and sold by a Radio shop in Gusum Sweden near to Valdemarsvik, It was new in to the country, it was Apple compatible but much rework and rewrite the programs to get things work had to be done, eventually i gave it back due to lack of apple functions, cassette tape, (long way prior the other names arrived, and later such dominance in the market. No epa jaggy edge logotypes, no flash bios, just a square white blinking cursor at top left corner. That was before loading the cassette tape and the program. Compare spec and prices with IBM that year , for my i think the price was 3000:- sek /300 euro or so, that is a diff to 19975 USD. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_5100

I had this computer for a couple of years (it''s gone by now though - unfortunately). Couldn''t afford the disks, so it was cassette only for me.
|
||||
|
||||
Used this to grind my teeth at computing - 1st, I wrote a 6502 disassembler - only using hex - took me a few month..
|
||||
|
||||
At which point, I wrote a symbolic assembler (took me but a week once I had the disassembler).
|
||||
|
||||
Fond memories !

I have 2 Microprofessor II Manuals and 2 defect Microprofessor II computers incl. all cables in the house of my parents in Germany. The motherboards would serve to take out parts that still work. I would just give it for free (if you pay the transport).\
|
||||
I am in Spain, but could ask my parents to send it to someone interested. (mmenner@merlin.fae.ua.es)

Hi, when I was 7 years old, my father bought an MPF II. I think it was the only one in Italy $)\
|
||||
I remember that I used an Apple II manual, but I can''t remember about it''s original manual. I''ll search for something but I remember that my father sell it after some years and bought a C64.
