  • ApplesBC 25th anniversary

    If you're in Vancouver BC on December 2 the ApplesBC 25th anniversary
    meeting might be of interest. For strictly Apple IIers along with the
    other Apple IIs we'll have Apple II serial # 92 and one of our founding
    members Gary Little says he will be there. I hope he's into some book
    signing since I plan on bringing a few. Last time we had #92 out was
    5 years ago and I didn't have a camera on hand. Won't happen this time.

    For the people with an interest in other Apple products, we've so far
    arranged to have an Apple III, Lisa, Newton, 128k Mac, Mac portable,
    Mac II, IIfx. There'll likely be a few others by then. I know we'll
    be demoing a thunderscan but I've left the software side to the people
    bringing the hardware.

    We'll either have a projector or computer running old Apple commercials.
    So far that's it but I'm sure we'll add to it by the meeting.

    Hopefully you meant, "it will happen" because I'd like to see those
    pictures.

    Happy Birthday ApplesBC!

    Congrats on the 25th Anniversary! Having an Apple II serial #92 is very cool.

    Be sure to tell Gary Little that bunches of Apple II and IIgs users still look up stuff in his books.

    There is an earlier one, #88 that I could have tried for but the fellow
    with #92 is coming to this meeting so it was easy to ask him. Also Woz
    came to an earlier anniversary meeting and signed the power supply on
    this . If I remember correctly, I was told that of the first batch of
    IIs 4 came to Canada, two to Winnipeg and two to Vancouver. Both the
    Vancouver ones are still in the hands of the original owners.

    I'll mention that to Gary and that his name crops up often enough in newsgroups.
