P.S. The MHTs are not in the file. You can see the webpages I created them from by following the links.

What a shame there is no way to download individual images from that
appleII-de site.

Right-click works the same there as it does everywhere else.

What's puzzling is that he went to the trouble of reconstructing the
schematic in KiCad, but then didn't bother to make the files available.

Just download the zip file and unzip it.

Scott,

If you're referring to me, I did no such thing. I used an Epson scanner (hardware and software) to create the JPGs from the original copies I had (before I sold my two different MC-ECs {hardware and documentation} to Steven Hirsch).

Sorry, I misunderstood by not registering Steven Hirsch's reference to the German website. I thought he was referring to my zip file.

Sorry, I misunderstood by not registering your reference to the German website. I thought you were referring to my zip file.

You should be able to save individual pictures to your desktop from within your browser. Also, you should be able to save the webpages as (complete) HTML or MHT files.--From MSIE in Windows, anyway. The MHT files, or the HTML files' subfolders, will contain the pictures.

That is in the age of the Ancient Aliens, during the last Ice Age, long before the Flood (of Noa fame), and modern humans.

Sorry about the typo. That should be 2017.
