Hi Everyone.

I am a user of an Apple IIC+! yay! I use mine mostly for Applesoft Basic programming.

Is this a place for those of us who rock Jurassic Apples?

  • If you want to play any games at all on a IIc+, you have to hit Open Apple-Ctrl-Reset-Esc to change the CPU speed to 1 MHz, or the game will run four times faster than it should. The timing of the Esc key is tricky, but if you did it right, it will say “Normal” near the top of the screen.

      Thanks. I have not downloaded any games just yet, well one - Taipan. played it a little.

      • Yeah the IIc+ was a neat idea, but they really should have defaulted to 1 MHz rather than 4 MHz. The Apple II doesn’t have a system timer, so games rely on counting CPU cycles.

        Other than that, I like that the IIc and IIc+ have all the devices built in, like the 80 column card, language card, printer/modem, joystick, and mouse, along with a full 128 KB of RAM. Don’t have to mess with cards on those.
