Ultima I, Zork

This morning I downloaded The Oregon Trail and Ultima I to play under Kegs. I spent about an hour playing Ultima I. It plays almost as well under Kegs as it does on my Apple //c, better in some ways. …

Ultima
After yesterday’s fairly long post, I loaded up Ultima. Wow, it has been years since I played last. I played for about an hour. The graphics are pretty crude and the sound affects are downright annoying, but I strangely enjoyed myself. …
Daily Apple
I intend to use this space to post on a daily basis about Apple II computers. I bought my first Apple Computer on December 29 of 1984. It was an Apple //c and came with a 9″ monitor and stand, a…
