I think you might be underestimating the requirements for a UNIX like OS. An 8Mhz 68000 struggles, so how a 6502 is supposed to cope I'm not sure. Click to expand... Is it more…

Might want to investigate Minix. It's designed for teaching OS design, so even if a porting effort failed, it would be an educational fail . It is to some extent unix-like. …

OK, maybe I'm just talking to myself by now, but I found this site in Linux Journal magazine: http://www.freertos.org/ There's no port for the 6502/Apple yet, but I'm going to tak…

***Correction*** The PPC is a 7300/180, not a 7200. Its running a version of system 8. ***Update*** The LC 575 also is running system 8, but a bit less hapily than the 7300, won…

Boxed Color StyleWriter 2200, looks complete 2x Good condition RGB displays 1 really nice no yellowing RGB display 2x PM 7200s Box of software, etc. including a boxed OS 8, and…

The Powerbook is definitely my favorite of the recent finds. Except for the issues its a nice little computer.

Wow, great conquests! The PowerBook 180c is one of the Macintoshes that I really want.

After i picked up my 8100/110 several months ago, i had no monitor to use with it. On sunday, i found someone on craigslist selling a 7200 with monitor and a bunch of accessories, …

I read quite a few Usenet posts last evening on this subject, most from the late 80's. It looks like co-operative multitasking is going to be the way to go, unless one can get a ca…

My Retrochallenge blog will be at: http://conceitedjerk.tripod.com/retro09.html Nothing's there yet, will have something up (likely) tomorrow! :b&w:

cool, I went to my dad's house and got his "the applesoft tutorial", which has been sitting in the same drawer since his apple //e was brand new except for a tiny wrinkle on the d…

Oh yes, I am ready to get started. I have been studying the "Programming the 6502" book which I obtained just for this project. I now know the equivalent of Applesoft's PEEK, POKE…

Competition starts in two days. Sign up... Focus... Flounder.

When will you be posting the Apple II stuff on there that you have? Click to expand... Hopefully in July or August. I need to update the Vault page, though. I've done more work…

I don't post. I just read the news on my site. See this topic: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=9839 Click to expand... Yeah I saw that thread. It looked like a simple way to check up…

What do you go by on there, since I haven't seen Dog Cow as a name on any messages. Dean Click to expand... I don't post. I just read the news on my site. See this topic: view…

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. I've seen you quite a few times on csa2 as well. UNIX on the Apple II is something that people have been talking about for over 20 years…

I don't think that it does. I just read the manual last evening, and it looks like it's a bunch of BASIC scripts all tied together. It does have a task scheduler, though. Click …

Well, the browser is a damned handy thing... with serious limitations. It's not really much good for modern web content, but it is a great way to download files to your Apple II. Y…

I don't think not programming for Contiki disqualifies you from commenting on its use. Anything about the (user perspective!) differences between 1.x and 2.x, using the UI or …
