I recently bought an Apple //c with Monitor //c. Although it was clearly
previously unused - it came in the original cartons with factory warranty -
it must be rather old, as I discovered it is the original model.
Silly me! I knew there was a //c and a //c+, but now I find out - reading
the Apple //c Technical Reference Manual - that there are three varieties
of the //c: original, with UniDisk support, and memory expandable.
Is it at all possible to use a 3.5" drive with my //c? With a RAM-based
driver perhaps? I wouldn't mind booting from a 5.25" floppy - that's built
in anyway. I would appreciate any suggestions on this.
I'm also looking for a good communications program. It should at least offer
VT100 emulation and Kermit. Recommendations?
Thanks in advance for any help!
