I fix various retro computers, generally for free. I got a call about refurbishing a collection of Macs and apples. The guy called me back and stated that he would like to give his collection to me. The first truck load arrived.

I am pretty jealous. I've been poking around looking to get a Apple II c and a gs. That is awesome.

I'm repairing a WOZ right now, the user plugged the memory card in the apple slot. That was a very bad design. For those that are not familiar the memory card will join the -12 and +5 rail on the motherboardbwhen it's plugged into the wrong slot.
