|
||
It used a 5 MHz. 8088 processor, 64 to 128 KB of RAM and a dedicated powed supply unit.
|
||
|

It was priced at **$980** (64KB version) and **$1,150** (128 KB).

Here is the sale brochure of the Dynatyper, a strange and obscure printing device launched in 1980:
|
||
|
||
Dynatyper is a new typewriter interface system designed to generate hard copy directly from computer output through any electric typewriter. It exploits the high quality and use of full upper and lower case characters of your electric typewriter. Users of small computer systems can now expand those systems into applications demanding high quality text, such as word processing.
|
||
|
||
Consisting of an array of coils positioned in the same pattern as the typewriter's keyboard. These coils are wired into an electrical decoding matrix. Designed to operate on voltage available from standard computers, the Dynatyper is easily installed without modification to your typewriter. Adjustments for different key heights are easy.
|
||
|
||
Rochester Data provides interfaces and software for the **TRS-80 Level 1 & 2**, the **Apple II** and also a 6 bit **parallel interface** for general operation with other computers. The same interface board can be modified by jumper selection to eperate in any of the above modes...

I bought my first computer $ an Apple $$+ in mid-eighties for about $400 (second hand). Black screen with green text, ALL CAPS :D\
|
||
Didn''t use the full capabilities of it $ but really became obsessed with "Snake" and the old game from Infocom $ "ZORK-3". Also liked the crude graphics of "Castle Wolfenstein".\
|
||
Brings back memories...I may have to get it out of storage and fire it up!

I bought an Apple II+, the euro version.\
|
||
It had 48K ram, two 140K disk drives and some extension cards: 80-column card with printer output, CPM card with a Z80 CPU (enabled me to use CPM O/S and program in Turbo Pascal!)\
|
||
Awsome machine. I programmed in assembler and found out that the 1 MHz 6502 would easily outrun the 4 MHz Z80! Wow what a wonderful CPU 6502 was.

text: My parents bought me an Apple II+ back in 1981 and I have to say it changed my life. I learned to program on it and couldn''t wait to explore what it had to offer. It truly was an exciting piece of equipment. Does anyone remember the MockingBoard voice synthesizer? That was cool to play around with. It the reason I''m in the IT field today.

text: I bought an Apple II+ clone kit PCB from a Toronto-based retailer, Exceltronics, with the intention of upgrading to higher-capacity memory chips. I wanted to use 2732 and 4164 devices on a separate interface card, while disabling or removing the OEM chips from the motherboard. I didn''t finish that project - kept the pre-programmed 2732''s.

text: I bought the Apple II+ when it first came out. It came with 48K memory. I spent $269 for additional 16K. I still have the computer, monitor and all the software. There were not a lot of programs available at that time. I taught myself how to program and wrote an audio cassette labeling program, that I used and sold to other studios. I later wrote a book, "Apple Programming Secrets ''They'' Didn''t Want you to know." It was published by Prentice-Hall as part of their computer learning series. Since then, I''ve owned most every model of macs since the Mac Plus came out. I still write software today. But my fondest memories are of my old Apple II+ days.

text: Nothing technical to report. Programs I recall were a thing called Visicalc (Father of Excel!) and the Lemonade game. However, I do remember, as a student teacher, going along to the computer department and finding a brand new Apple IIe lying untouched in the corner. Computer techs - at that time - thought that personal computers would "never catch on". I showed them how to set the machine up - they had no interest nor idea. This teacher training college still exists (as do some of the satff!!!) so I can't mention the name.

text: Over a year since the last contribution. I LOVED this machine. Taught myself BASIC from tapes on the High School Library's brand new Apple II+ in my Freshman year. Also played around with the school's Trash-80's, but I enjoyed the colorful world of the Apple. I think it was the intro of the closed-system Mac that was the death of users not knowing what makes a computer run.

text: Huh? What? Only one (now two!) post for such a popular computer? The Apple \]\[+ wasn't shiny when it comes to sound and graphics but it was versatile... and a great learning tool. It was my introduction to computer science and electronics. I'm still amazed by the the Disk II interface design. That was the time when users knew what was inside their computers. Can we say the same today witn Windoze machines?

Do you remember Nibble and Call-A.P.P.L.E.? They were two of the best, and there were lots more monthly and quarterly magazines.

The Apple II+ was the successor to the [Apple II](/museum/apple-ii/).
|
||
|
||
It was fully compatible with the Apple II. It, however, had new features:
|
||
|
||
\- a new ROM holding the AppleSoft Basic (floating point version written by Microsoft),\
|
||
\- a new auto-start (stored in ROM) for easier start-up and screen editing,\
|
||
\- 48 KB RAM,\
|
||
\- text modes were the same as the Apple II, but the graphics modes were enhanced, they're the same as the Apple 2e : 16 colours at low resolution and 6 colours at high resolutions. In fact this 6-colour mode was also available on the Apple II since revision 1 of the motherboard.
|
||
|
||
The Apple II+ was sold in Europe as the **Apple IIeuroplus** which could display video in European PAL format, and had ESC sequences for European letters. It was followed by the [Apple 2e](/museum/apple-iie/).
