It was with a sense of anticipation that I opened the book, "Apple I Replica Creation: Back to the Garage", by Tom Owad. Being a recent 'switcher' from Windows to Mac, the idea of building a first generation Apple to go with my cutting edge machines had the engineer in me pretty jazzed.

Love the old days! Nowadays, hardware is just too freaking complex. There's nothing you can do with it, with reasonable tools and eyesight. And now, when they kill off the serial and parallel ports from PCs ('cause they "have to be USB, can not stand vintage"), even doing simple peripherals will be much harder.
Anyway, I love my Apple IIe, just wish I had a color monitor for it.
