"Nice wood grain on the wagon!" said LGR.
"You have typhoid." said Dr. Mix

Techmoan have died of dysentery. Oh eck!!
LGR has a broken arm.
Dr Mix has typhoid
LMNC has a snakebite.
Eight-Bit has a broken leg.

Always enjoy seeing these alternate system possibilities on classic Macs. Been messing with an x86 DOS compatibility card recently myself!

Also: with enough bacon and bullets, I have no doubt all five of us would survive the trek to Oregon 😁

[greciasoleble]

whoa it's incredible how customizable and upgradable the early apple computers were, the total opposite of the current apple.
very illustrative video.

[PlayerOneStart]

Well done! Though I am a bit disappointed I didn't find out which one of you died of dysentery. :)


A former teacher of mine gave me his old LC II when he retired. He had a bunch of old Apple II software with it, along with that breakout cable and a 5.25 inch floppy drive. Until this video, I had no idea that card was responsible for running all of the Apple II software on that machine. Thanks!

Wow! Awesome to be in your 1848 party 😁❤️👍🙌

[LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER]

Hahaha I would be more than happy being in that party 😂. Amazing!!! 1848 wouldn’t know what hit em!!

11:35 Wow from take apart with no tools required to fighting for the right to fix.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: You, LGR, Techmoan, and any other vintage computing YouTubers should make a movie where you're all in an Oregon Trail type environment, with vintage computers tied in somehow.

My school was using appleIIs all the way into 1996 when I was in first grade computer class
That math game brought back a flood of memories

[TheRealMentat]

I used to work for a school district's IT back in the 90's. I remember configuring a load of LC and Performa systems with these cards. I though that was SO cool! A couple years later we setup some Performa 6100s with the DOS Compatibility Card so the teachers could access the grading system that sat on a Novell NetWare server. UGH, what a nightmare THAT was!

I wondered where the recent traffic on my music came from and now I see this video. Thanks again David, always appreciate my music being used! And a very interesting video, from times when Apple made actually revolutionary computers.

LGR is not happy you didn't have Duke along.

[TheH]

Well, looks like the price of these cards just doubled.🤑

[misterkite]

Now you need to go one level deeper. There was a Z80 card for the Apple II which was actually Microsoft's biggest money-maker for a time.

Poor Anders E. Jensen, not being included on your expedition.

[dbeaumontresident]

Thanks for the upload David, Great vid as always!

[tyttuut]

6:08 I hereby demand that all of you get together and make a short movie/video where you all survive in an Oregon Trail inspired world, but with obsolete tech somehow involved.

[musicmanfelipe]

My elementary school computer lab had this exact same setup, the Mac LCII with the Apple II cards. Thanks for bringing back those memories.

[daverome]

I have absolutely no clue about technology or computers... but I bet I'm not the only one that keeps returning and loves your videos!
