Mainly Neat Stuff Mainly Neat Stuff: Obscure Apple computer hardware and software
Mainly Neat Stuff The emphasis of these pages will be the more interesting obscure Apple hardware and software plus manuals and marketing materials. There are loads of computer museums on the web with pictures and technical descriptions of the most popular systems. I'm not going to repeat that information although I will provide suitable links whenever possible.
Some pages contain large images which will take a lot of time to download. <ALT> tags or descriptive text are provided for all graphics, however, and these pages can be browsed with images turned off or from a text browser. OK, I forget sometimes about the <ALT> tags, so bear with me while I sort out these pages.

I'm always interested in unusual Apple software and hardware, particularly third party add ons. For the Macintosh I work with a ten year cut off date so I'm mainly interested in stuff upto and including the Mac IIci and SE/30 (which are still very useful computers if you use the right software). I trust that the summary of my wish list gives a flavour of what interests me:
An original Apple ][ (not IIe or Europlus)
Second Sight card for the IIgs
Apple III manuals
Apple Lisa 2 spares, manuals and software
Apple Lisa 1 spares and software
SE/30 PDS cards (including video and ethernet)
Radius (or other) video expansion for the Mac 128/512/Plus
Third party add-ons for the Mac 128/512
Neotech SCSI image grabber (hardware and software)
Unusual NuBus cards (not video or ethernet)
Manuals for NuBus and SE or SE/30 PDS cards
TOPS network software and hardware
Pre-System 6 network software
