Apple II family - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Apple II peripheral cards such as Serial controllers, improved display controllers, memory boards, hard disks, and networking components were available for this system in its day. |
 | | The Apple IIc was the first Apple II to use the updated 65C02 processor, and featured a built-in floppy drive and 128K RAM, with a built-in disk controller that could control external drives, composite video (NTSC or PAL), serial interfaces for modem and printer, and a joystick/mouse port. |
 | | Apple decided not to create an open architecture with the initial Macintosh models, and this is widely seen as having hobbled its success, although the IBM PC provides an object lesson that success for the platform does not necessarily equate to success for the company that invented it. |
