Greetings, folks! I wasn't planning on getting a video out this week but well, here we are. Still trudging through the moving and home renovation process, and part of that involves getting a lotta stuff out of storage and bringing it over to the new house. Which inspired the making of this quickly-assembled video! This is the first time I've had all of my Apple II machines out at the same time and I ended up getting excited enough to whip out the camera and begin talking about them. Then a new-to-me Apple IIe system showed in the mail and I got extra excited about that too, so I figured why not tack on an unboxing and test of that lovely system to the latter half of this video while I'm at it! Magic smoke included as a free bonus.

And yep, that's all we've got this time. Simple, unscripted filler about some nifty old computers. I'm making a bunch of progress at the new place, but I've still got weeks (at minimum) to go before I can really begin setting up my new recording/studio/LGR space. So yeah, hope y'all are on-board for some less involved content in the meantime.

Have a good one, and thank you so much for your ongoing support!

The LGR Apple II Collection + Testing an Apple //e!

I've been moving and that means getting stuff outta storage and bringing it to the new house. Which inspired this quickly-made video! This is the first time I've had all of my Apple 2 machines out at the same time and I ended up getting excited enough to whip out the camera and begin talking about them. Then a new-to-me Apple IIe system showed in the mail and I got extra excited about that too, so I figured why not tack on an unboxing and test of that lovely system to the latter half of this video while I'm at it! Magic smoke included as a free bonus. ● LGR links: https://www.patreon.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.twitter.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.facebook.com/LazyGameReviews ● All background music licensed from: http://www.epidemicsound.com 00:00 Intro to the Collection 02:16 The Original Apple II 04:29 The Apple II Plus 08:00 Apple IIe Enhanced 10:23 Apple IIc 12:28 Apple IIGS 16:00 Unboxing an Apple IIe 20:07 Unboxing a Monitor III 21:58 Testing the IIe and Monitor 24:21 Apple Writer II 26:38 Diagnostics Testing 29:43 The Oregon Trail 32:17 RIFA Madness 34:29 Outroduction #LGR #Retro #Computers

I understand the fascination with systems you don't know so much about. That's how I felt about the big box Amiga's. Expansion cards are just lovely :)

Really enjoyed this extra video. Thanks for the content.

How does it feel to make videos inside these Spartan rooms while you progress in settling in your new home? Does it feel like a blank slate, do you get the impression you have more freedom in your creativity. Also, do you anticipate a part of this will change as your new house is completely set up? What do you plan to do to keep this balance? I really felt this video was going back to some roots of yours.

Apple IIe (and their Basis 108 clones) were the machines our school used to teach us coding in PASCAL, way back in the Eighties. For us, our teacher was the ultimate guru, when he coded himself an own OS for Apple II. Just for fun. 😂 In my first job later, we still used Apple III with VisiCalc as spreadsheet software and a pretty wide Apple printer. Still got the original Apple III manual somewhere… 🤔

at 8:40 I genuinely expected that to be a bag of... something else. Perfect hiding spot.

Fun video. I played a bit on an Apple ][ in grade school (poor family starved in Oregon Trail). I recall the Open-Apple (vs. the Closed-Apple), but that might have been from working with the Apple ][c.

I thought this was a pretty fantastic video. Thank you! I have an Apple IIc in my retro collection but have not done much with it, really. I must remedy that. :)

My senior year of high school, 1987-88, I took A.P. Computer Science. Learned how to program in Pascal on an Apple //e. Looked exactly like your setup there, with the Monitor /// and everything. Each computer in my school's computer lab had its own Epson 9-pin dot-matrix printer, and that's how we'd turn in our programs -- both on floppy and as a print-out, so our teacher could run the programs from the floppy and then write his remarks on the paper printout. The lab also had a couple of IIc's and a IIgs, and a Mac SE with an Apple Laserwriter printer. We'd use that to edit the school newspaper on Aldus Pagemaker. Good memories! :-)

@LGR - Have you tried the Logitech keyboards with the Perfect Stroke keys? I have a K800 and love it. That one is discontinued now, but I think you can buy the K740 which is pretty much the same keyboard. I think you'd like them.
