The AII should have serial card in slot 2 if printer already in slot 1 should have serial card in slot 2 if printer already in slot 1. For the AII there are a variety of programs...we have used Kermit with success. Ask your local computer center to get for you. For the AIII there is little choice...Apple had one and there was one called XMODEM plus a crude Kermit. (I am office now and can get details when I am at home where my AIII is setup) The stuff I have was not originall PD but the company that handled is PAIR Software and may be out of business so it may not matter. The AIII interp file is a compiled application or language file. There has to be an interp file because it translates AIII code to 6502 code. There used to be a AIII bulletinboard, but it is probably defunct. If you don't get any other response get back to me and I will see what I have among my AIII software files. -DD Meisel
