Information Appliance Swyft Card

Hey, anyone who still goofs around with Apple II, I listed a bunch of stuff
on the Apple II group (Yes, I still hang out in the Apple II group and new
things are still being made, like a Compact Flash card that replaces hard
drives under ProDOS).

At the bottom is a Forth/Swyftcard related item of historical interest. In
fact I think Sandy Bumgarner is a signee of the patent mentioned.

--------------------------

Addendum:

Well, I tested accelerators this morning, at least the ones I could find. So
me people have emailed and I figure first come first served. However no one
made an offer, just asked how much I wanted. Since I don't want to bother
with the whole eBay thing, I wonder if you all could help with a little
consensus on value?

A) MCT SpeedDemon: Works fine. No docs.

B) AE Transwarp: Works fine. Boots from floppy and I had a CFFA card in and
it booted Kyan KIX with no problem.

C) Titan - unknown. Does some stuff and then pretty flashing squares.
labeled Dapple Systems, an outfit that was always speed crazy and which I did
some work for making floating point accelerators. The sold systems for
scanning electron microscopes. Curio/Relic?

D) Stellation Mill 68008 card. Lost the disks and docs. From IAI sale.

E) Rocket Chip 5MHz Seems dead. Flashing squares. Curio/Relic?

F) Zip Chip Model 8000. Great. The beep is nearly ultrasonic. These are a
kick in the ass. Work with everything I ever owned. Original box, disk, and
docs like new.

G) Or, the Zip 8 inside a //e with 1meg Apple RAM card, 3 1/2 controller, 5
1/4 controller, 80 col, new platinum keyboard (I have a case of NIB
keyboards). Some yellowing of case. Super clean inside - like new.
A2S128 3A2S2 E120SK0A2S2128

H) Headline! Zip-II 4MHz found alive in Apple //e with bad power supply!

What do you think? I will post the same thing on the A// Marketplace and
sys.apple2 lists.

I have a pile of other cards, but no accelerators. A couple of types of
networking stuff including a couple of Apple cards with a cable to a pair of
AppleTalk looking connectors and a setup for the GS with a master and a bunch
of slaves meant for school computer labs.

Also some Grappler and Grappler+ cards and Redshift 256 level gray scale
frame grabbers that give your Apple 256 level pixels. Oh, and lots more.

I'm selling Jef Raskin's Apple //e from Information Appliance with the
patented wood palm rest and with his Swyft Card installed and wood leap keys
and space bar with a Station II monitor holder that covers the open case
since he threw the case top away as a bother to switching cards.

I may go eBay on this one since there are some Japanese collectors who have
wanted it in the past.
