The Apple /// (which it was designed for), Lisa (for which it was first adapted to), and the Apple // (which it was adapted to when ProDOS first came out). To get it to work on an Apple // will require an interface card. One source of the card is Sun Remarketing (yes, the Apple /// people). Some dealer may still have one in stock (My local dealer is one of a chain of 5 in the area, and I could get the ProFile interface card for the Apple /// thru him if need be). Don't have my Sun Remarketing catalog, so I can't quote you a price or address. I do believe the address is somewhere in/near Logan, Utah. -- Matthew Lee Stier | Sun Microsystems --- RTP, NC 27709-3447 | "Wisconsin Escapee" uucp: sun!mstier or mcnc!rti!sunpix!matthew | phone: (919) 469-8300 fax: (919) 460-8355 |
