LOST Apple Computers FOUND After Decades! (Part 1)

Описание: This is Part 1 of a multi-part series, where I uncover an incredible haul of vintage Apple computers! This episode is all about the Apple IIe restoration, as I go through 10 Apple IIe computers to test what runs and what doesn’t.

In this episode, I’ll be:
✅ Testing 10 Apple IIe computers to see what works and what doesn’t.
✅ Checking out the expansion cards found inside these machines.
✅ Showing how incredibly mint these Apple IIe’s are—one of the cleanest collections I’ve ever seen.
✅ Looking at an Apple IIe Platinum and some interesting modifications.
