Not much happened today. Took one of the old Apples apart. Pulled the chips and cleaned the legs and sockets then reinstalled everything, hooked it up and tested it. A-OK! Thing about doing a thorough cleaning like that is all those chips suddenly seem to have a bazillion legs! Cleaning the holes in the sockets is easy with a pipe cleaner and alcohol. This one really needed the cleaning as it had a case of light rust going.
Copied some programs from the Apple Mega-ROM file on my PC to an SD card then copied them to floppy disks on the //e.
Other than that it was a pretty quiet day except for the wind blowing outside. Sounded like some gusts reached 40mph.
Time to call it a night. See y'all in the am. I got a doc appointment in the afternoon.
