Perhpaps its scaler is better, but my monitor won't accept 15 kHz RGB, so it can only use composite video. I'm guessing 15 kHz RGB converted to VGA with one of these CGA adapters w…

Yes, that unit will work, but the quality is likely "eh", "meh", or non-existent. The GBS-8220 board that likely came out of the same factory in China is commonly found for $30 or …

On the topic of IIgs RGB video output - does anyone know if it's the same as CGA video, found on old PC graphics cards? CGA is also described as a 15 kHz video signal with analog R…

It actually gets worse.  I replaced the HD and hooked it up to a SCSI enclosure that has electrical outlets on the back of it (which I say to distinguish this first part where the …

Sorry for posting so late. The SD needs a minimum of 3.3V, as per Raspberry Pi's use of 3.3Vs instead of 5V. Question is, what kind of adapter do you have? At worst, I think, you…

Elfen, I was planning on going through your steps tonight or tomorrow but I have a concern - on the Kanga my PCMCIA - SD converter freezes every time I insert it (pretty similarly …

Or, for most of what Apple II Pi does you could just transfer your physical Apple II disks into images using ADTPro and run them on the same GSport emulator it uses for its Apple ]…

What is the Apple II Pi?   FAQ   Is the Raspberry Pi talking directly to the Apple II peripherals?   No, the Apple II is running a custom driver that reads input from the keybo…

You can use Apple ][ Server or ADT over the serial port.  I'll try and dig up a link.  It's a way of having an Apple II Pi without the out-of-production slot adapter board, which o…

heck the floppy emu is so advanced he could make it emulate a whole Iic i bet. just add keyboard...

I'm excited for this. My FloppyEmu will go great with my //c

Also check that the plastic post that should engage those switches isn't broken off on the back panel or front panel. If the machine gets jostled around in shipping, etc. they very…

Hmm, that USB sound card sure is cheap! I have no idea how they can make any money selling stuff like that for $3. I just noticed that Apple ][ Disk Server does something very sim…

I did not see that one! Thanks Snuci

Thanks for the offer! I think I won't need it, though: after much fussing and fiddling, I finally have a working IIgs serial cable for ADTPro *and* a working Lisa serial cable for …

(Good info on the trackpad/palmrest being replaceable, by the way.  The keyboard, as far as I can tell, is also replaceable (swapped it out last night).  The keyboard that came wit…

It's an evil thing to suggest, but does your IIgs' motherboard have the header soldered for a IIe keyboard? Since your IIe is already damaged you could use that as the excuse to cu…

bigmessowires said: Ah, I guess you're right about audio. But won't I need the SSC anyway, unless I continue using the IIgs as a go-between disk making station for the IIe? …

The IIgs certainly brings its share of conveniences, even as an 8-bit machine. Plenty of folks used them as well equipped "fast" Apple IIes back in the day.

You do have a case of "you can't get there from here," don't you?   You will be unhappy with audio even if/when you get it working.  Yes, it's a line-in vs. mic amplification iss…
