Uh-oh! Yeah, it's me. I'm back. The computer bug. Here to bug you some more.
The memory card I mentioned earlier has arrived. I tested it and it's fully operational. But it's the strangest setup for an extended 80 column card I've ever seen. For those who know about vintage Apple technology, it's a regular Apple 820-0066-A 1kb 80-column card that has a 64kb Apricorn 1400-15 add-on memory card piggy-backed on it. This is the first time I've held one of these much less seen one and I thought I'd seen it all when it comes to Apple II tech. But then again I've put together some Disk II disk drive variants the Lobo Drive techs probably hadn't thought of. An example of that are the two Lobo Drives I rebuilt. Both can run everything the Apple Disk II drives can including ProDOS. The out-of-the-box Lobo's can't do that.
