Post by: Jibbajaba on October 26, 2005, 12:59:59 PM Welcome to the Apple family! I personally love these things. Hard to collect for though, as Apple software is hard to come by. Get yourself a Super Serial Card and a serial link cable and you can make A2 disks from disk images that you can download off the web.
