You gadget freaks out there, you wouldn't want to miss this.

Presenting.... *drum roll*

appleii

The Apple II Series (1977) with 64kb RAM

isn't this a beauty????

what?

ei! you don't pray pray aaa... this is one of the great ancestors of all the i-Pods and i-Phones that everybody coveted nowadays!

gosh! i've never thought i'd see one of this ancient earlier computer. this computer was used in UKM KK back in 1977. 1977? i wasn't even born!

looks a lot like an electric typewriter with a small tv on top.

If it wasn't for the Apple II, you would likely not have interface cards in your computers. The Apple II was the first mainstream microcomputer with expansion via interface cards that you could easily get to by opening the top of the case. Also, it was one of the most popular computers used in schools for a number of years. It's really not cool to knock old computers. One day some young kid is going to make fun of the stupid crap you are playing with today.

Are you guys speaking Malay? I tried to translate it on http://citcat.com/ but it didn't work so well. For example, the last comment translated to "Hahhahaa!!! That new particle suffixed to the emphatic word in sentence..ancient will flood.. Most urbane Bet it was like have time computer year 77"
