  • Allied Computer Store and the First Apple II Computer
    Allied Computer Store and the first Apple II computer. By Michael Holley http://www.swtpc.com/mholley/Apple/allied_computer.htm Written Nov 2005, revised Feb 2016 When I was going to the College of San Mateo (1975-1977) I worked at a local computer store, Allied Computers. My job was to assemble computers kits. This included IMSAI, Processor Tech, SWTPC and any other kit that a customer wanted assembled. I would take my pay in computer parts. The first pay check was a SWTPC CT-1024 terminal followed by a SWTPC 6800 computer. By November of 1976 I had a complete system running BASIC. Chet Harris, the store owner, was trying to set up a chain like the Byte Shops and Computer Land. I got to meet some interesting people then, like a field trip to Bill Godbout's where we met Bill and George Morrow. Chet and I went to the Computer Shack store in San Leandro to talk with the management in early 1977. Radio Shack claimed trademark infringement on name Computer Shack so it was changed to Computer Land. One of our customers at Allied Computer was Bill Kelly. He was working for Regis McKenna Advertising on the Apple II introduction. He has a web page that talks about the early days at Apple Computer. (www.kelleyad.com/Histry.htm) He had worked on the Intel account and had an Intel SDK-80 evaluation board that he gave me in exchange for a power supply for his prototype Apple II board. (I still have that SDK-80 board with tiny BASIC.) We sold Apple II main boards before the plastic case was ready.

  • Apple Floppy Drives
    Mainly Neat Stuff --> Vintage Macintosh --> Apple Floppy Drives Apple Floppy Drives Apple produced a number of external floppy drives for the Apple II and early Macintoshes. This document contains images of some 3.5" and 5.25" drives plus notes on their application. Only drives sold under the Apple brand are listed; drives for PowerBooks are not included. Links to more detailed information on usage of each drive are provided at the bottom of the page. Usually it is harmless if the wrong drive is connected to the wrong computer, but some combinations will cause damage. Never connect an Apple II 5.25" drive to a Macintosh 19 pin floppy port. Apple II and III 5.25" drives are all 140K in size and use the GCR recording technique. GCR disks cannot be read by standard PC disk controllers. 3.5" 400K and 800K drives use the GCR recording technique. GCR disks cannot be read by standard PC disk controllers. 3.5" 1.4M drives can use both GCR and MFM recording techniques; the MFM technique is used to create 720K or 1440K PC format floppy disks. MFM disks can only be read/created by an Apple II with the "Superdrive" controller or a Mac with FDHD ROMs. 3.5" drives designed for use on the Apple II have eject buttons and pass through connectors for daisy chaining drives. Drives often have a paper label such as "Drive 1", "Drive 3" etc. This label is for the benefit of the computer user. Drives are identical no matter what the paper label says.
