Apple Computers: Apple Ii
built 155 days ago
The Apple II was introduced on April 16, 1977 at the first West Coast Computer Faire. It differed from its major rivals, the TRS-80 and Commodore PET, because it came with color graphics and an open architecture. While early models used ordinary cassette tapes as storage devices, this was quickly superseded by the introduction of a 5 1/4 inch floppy disk drive and interface, the Disk II.

Pedro is an IT geek who wrote his first basic program on an Apple II when he was 7. Since then, he’s done everything from running servers, developing real-time applications to managing the IT infrastructure and department of an MNC. He has now decided to work on his own business and travel the world while doing so (with internet available almost everywhere, this is now possible!), and what would seem more natural for a geek but to blog about it!

Comparing iApple computers with IBM computers is like comparing iApples and iOranges. iOranges are less successful as they have thick iImpenetrable skins, a covering of nasty iPith and don't taste at all pleasant. Some iPeople... insist that they are an iGoodThing and still continue to consume them.
