I just inherited a number of AppleIII computers (yes, they still work),
but much of the application software was lost before I received the
hardware.  Does anyone know of a source of software and hardware for
these things?  I don't intend to spend a great deal of money, because
I just want to get them working for word processing and home budgeting
for my and my wife's parents.

Does anyone know where to locate descriptions of the ports (pinouts, usages,
etc. ?)

I've got an AppleII compatibility disk for the AppleIII, but the AppleIIe 
software I've tried does not work.  Does it only work with old Apple
software, or am I missing something?

Thanks for any help you might be able to provide.  Please post, because you
probably can't email in to me...
