Updates! We has updates!

Going through the emails that I have accumulated in the past ten years, I’ve mined some gold that has been languishing in my archive:

  • Update to Chapter 17, by adding a little more information about the Logo language on the Apple II and IIGS. Thanks to Todd Nathan!
  • Update to Chapter 4, adding information from Gordon French about one of the early of the Apple II case.
  • An addition to the Clones exhibit in the Museum, specifically the ITT 2020 from the UK. Also added an ad for the ITT 2020 and for the Pear-II to the Ads: Hardware exhibit. Thanks to Yves de Ryckel for the photos.
  • Fixed two very old typos in Chapter 19. Thanks to Ryan Schmidt!
  • Jerry Fellows had donated not only a photo of the II Infinitum button, but also a copy of the letter that was used in the campaign to convince Apple to give the Apple II more attention. That letter is now in the Miscellaneous gallery in the Museum.
