Starting the weekend to check on several retro computers that have been in storage for quite a bit. I take the batteries out before putting them in storage to avoid motherboard damage from battery leakage.

I also found some new old stock Radio Shack batteries, purchased during the store liquidation sales around 10 years ago.

No luck, of course. Batteries were dead as expected.

AppleWorks on an Apple //GS today.

When entering the date on startup it has to be between '83 & '00 so Y2K is a problem!

Manufacturer in Cork from ~'86, more information here:

Here is another ancient (1989) project of mine written in #assembly language. It was a #shooter #VideoGame I wrote for the #apple2gs. I even created a companion game level editor in TML #Pascal. The editor had a nice feature similar to wave function collapse which is all the rage today to be able to create a game level quickly. I submitted it to a publisher at the time but nothing ever came of it. It is available at the link below for posterity.
