ClimateBookWe had a fantastic #EuroPlus session at Florence Park in Oxford today. Great weather and great musicians. We were sharing the space with Palestinian extraction families having a picnic and social event -- not a protest of any sort, just a lot of happy kids running around ...

💾 🇿🇦This model was the first computer I ever used. Apple II Europlus (pal version of Apple II Plus). It’s in fantastic condition. But that’s not all, it also has a Basic-80 CP/M Z80 card installed! #apple2europlus #europlus #cpm #basic80 #z80
Tony LI think that’s every key working now. It’s a bit janky, but way, way better. I’ve also replaced the RAM (it only had 16k, and two chips of that were bad). Now has the full 48k. It seems to be working and I can even get it to boot off a disc (not pictured). It is certainly getting there! I’ve got to learn how to use it now!

Here’s a pic of the Apple II Europlus mainboard. I was surprised how good a picture I could get with an iPhone and a little perspective correction on my iPad. It is very usable at full res.
Other than the RAM (on order) I can’t see anything obviously wrong or missing here. My gut feeling is the board mainly works as it does get to a prompt and beeps. No sign of any rework on the rear either.
So, I now have an Apple II Europlus. My next stage is learning how to fix an Apple II Europlus. It boots, beeps and displays a prompt, but the keyboard is dead aside from ctrl-reset. No other keys work. It is also only fitted with 16k RAM (previous owners fault-finding). More RAM ordered. I suspect it is the keyboard controller at fault. With the disc card and drive connected it does spin the drive and the heads seek. I think it wants to live!
