	Recently, my brother got an Apple 3. Yes, that's right, apple III!
Basically, it had been used by our grandfather for his restaurant, but
it had outlived (sortof) its usefulness. The thing seems to have
256K of ram, and a whopping huge 5 megabyte hard drive. Basically, he
would like to know anything there is to know about this strange beast.
Did you ever own or operate one of these ill-fated monstrosities?
In the manual for the computer it describes a program that causes
it to emulate an apple 2. Unfortunately, that program was not included
with the computer... The thing came with a printer card, but it's busted,
anyone have a spare? :-) My brother doesn't have net access, but
if you send mail to rogers@iris.ucdavis.edu, I'll be sure to forward it to him.
He, being a broke college student, would like to use it for word processing
and little bit of programming, so any light you can shed on this ancient
computer puzzle would be greatly appreciated!
