Welcome to show 0016! This episode is all about Assembly Lines: the book by Roger Wagner. See ya all in another week…

Welcome to Show 0015! Everything in this episode is about Apple2.info, the new Web site from Tony Diaz, world famous Apple II hardware expert and leader of the KansasFest committee.

Welcome to Show 0014! All of the folks who tried to reach me this time were wanting to know when the next podcast would be out; well, now you know! The maker of BBS: The Documentary is now working on Get Lamp, another documentary about early computing, this time about text adventures–check the trailer out at YouTube. Syndicomm has made GSoft BASIC (the free version) available for download. Tony Diaz, perhaps best known as the leader of the KansasFest committee, has started a new site, Apple2.info, which is a wealth of Apple II information (just as I’d expect from Tony). Ryan Suenaga (yes, your A2Unplugged host) has made his software available on a new Web page and is working on updates to his programs (and maybe a new one or two). GSE-Reactive is now known as Reactive Micro. James Littlejohn unveils a couple of new hardware products. Finally, our main topic: a review of Assembly Language for the Applesoft Programmer.

Welcome to Show 0013! Nibble Magazine‘s original domain is hijacked; go to nibblemagazine.net instead. KansasFest 2007 is over. Some highlights–increased attendance; the new/old/long lost mix of attendees; Ryan’s weird bonding experience with Vespa riding Carrington of 1MHz included their podcast choices (Tiki Bar, MacBreak Weekly, and This Week in Tech) but not their haircuts–and folks, Carrington is not acting; HackFest; and all kinds of sessions. Some lowlights–Krispy KremeFest fails to deliver, Denny‘s is closed for the night, the dearth of new products, and one live episode of A2Unplugged going south. There is a new Sweet16 and a new SMS NDA for those wanting new products. Juiced.GS switches hands. A2Unplugged donated iWoz as a prize and also won some prizes, including the Chop Shop Apple II shirt donated by Sean Fahey of A2Central.com. KansasFest 2008 scheduled is for July 22-27, 2008 at Rockhurst University in Kansas City–join us for 20 years of KansasFest.

Welcome to Show 0012! We’re live at KansasFest 2007 with Vespa riding Carrington Vanston of 1MKHz(?) and Andy Molloy of Juiced.GS. Hear our panel discuss dinner at Sweet Tomatoes, bearded Ken Gagne (aka Fake Steve Jobs?), Dave Szetela, formerly of Nibble Magazine and his keynote address, Eric “Sheppy” Shepherd‘s ORCA session, learning soldering (maybe practicing on a Replica 1?), the Marinetti Open Source Project, the BBS: The Documentary, Spam: The Documentary, the iPhone (presented by Rob of Today in iPhone), the NadaNet, and an adventure at Radio Shack.

Welcome to Show 00101!: I can’t count, obviously. Email from Low End Mac as well as voicemail from our old friends Rocky and Fred, discussing Woz at GTC West 2007, the AppleIIGo widget, Assembly Lines, and Opus ][. We preview KansasFest with a trip down memory lane to Rumors, Wishes, and Blatant Lies.

Welcome to Show 0010! Have we been Rob-bed? User email this episode from Rob and Rob as well as Ewen. Thanks guys. If you don’t want to call, you can record a MP3 and send it in via email instead. KansasFest 2007 early registration ends soon; sign up now and save some cash. A2Central.com pledges to donate proceeds from its Cafepress apparel store to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Speaking of apparel, check out this cool Apple II themed shirt from Chop Shop. The main subjects of this episode? SAFE2 by Ewen Wannop and Samurai by Ninjaforce. Have a nice Memorial Day.

What’s wrong with the RSS feed? I’m not real sure myself, but welcome to our third attempt at Show 0009! Rocky calls in to ask about an article in a Computist issue, Juiced.GS launches into its 12th volume, KansasFest 2007 registration opens, and we take a look at Ewen Wannop‘s Speccie’s News Acquisition Program.

Welcome to show 0008! Happy 40th birthday to me! Andrew Roughan calls in from Sydney, Australia, to discuss the Apple II DownUnder Chat. Sprint loses listener voicemail, and joining us in a TWiT-like format is Ken Gagne of Juiced.GS and Eric Shepherd of Syndicomm.

Welcome to show 0007! The all new, all different (well, not quite all different) A2Central.com is up and running. You can check out their chat room using Samurai, an Internet Relay Chat client from Ninjaforce. Some email comments from listeners–thanks all–as well as more voicemail from Rodney‘s friends. Finally, our chat with KansasFest committee chairperson Tony Diaz. Back after the new year…

Welcome to show 0006! We’re actually on time this episode; how’s that for a change? Your host passes the clinical social work exam. No email or voicemail this time. Some news around A2 News and Notes and A2Central.com. And of course, our featured interview with Mike Maginnis of The Computist Project. Back in fourteen!

Welcome to show 0005! Earthquake delay! That’s over and done, so the show can begin. Voicemail from Sing this time, who may be one of Rodney‘s buddies. Catakig and Virtual ][ are both updated, and KansasFest 2007 announces its keynote speaker. A question on C implementations for the Apple II leads to our main discussion. Aztec C, HyperC, cc65, MPW C, MPW ORCA/C, and finally ORCA/C by Byte Works (available from Syndicomm, either by itself or on Opus ][) all are discussed.

Welcome to show 0004!

Lots of interesting reader email and voicemail, including a call from… Rodney?
iWoz, by and about Steve Wozniak, is now shipping, and A2Unplugged will donate a copy for a KansasFest 2007 prize.

Syndicomm is spinning off A2Central.com. Listen in on Eric “Sheppy” Shepherd and Sean Fahey for their take on everything.

That’s it for this show! Back (hopefully) in a couple weeks.

Welcome to show 0003!

Retro Gaming Hacks by Chris Kohler has a few pages on the Apple II; pick it up at Amazon.

An update to Sweet16 and one to Virtual ][ will keep Mac OS X emulation fans happy.

The GNO FTP archive is back up and in operation.

ADTPro is in development and open source, looking for beta testers, and CiderPress has also been updated.

And of course, our special guest for this week is Ken Gagne, Editor-in-Chief of Juiced.GS Magazine, the Apple II world’s last remaining print publication.

Seeya in fourteen (or less)!

Welcome to show 0002!

1 MHz! beat A2Unplugged out the door (by several months at that) to be the world’s first Apple II Podcast. Sorry, Carrington. Great listener comments in email from Allan, Kim, Bobby, and Mike, and a voicemail from Colin. Thanks everyone. Bobby wanted to know if an interview with “old skool” (sic) Apple II programming Gods like Burger Bill Heineman might be possible. Anything’s possible with an Apple II, of course!

PC World magazine named their 25 Greatest PCs of All Time in honor of the 25th anniversary of the IBM PC… guess who’s number one.

Eric “Sheppy” Shepherd has been hard at work on updating Sweet16 for Mac OS X, and his company, Syndicomm, has cut prices on two of their magazine compilation CD-ROMs, Simply Softdisk G-S and Softdisk Supreme.

The main topic of this episode is a review of the Complete Nibble Library on DVD. Check out the other Nibble products also at their Web site.

Seeya all in two weeks!

Okay, I tried one last time.  It’s a small improvement in audio quality, but still an improvement.  I give up for this episode and promise to better next time…

To try to fix some of the volume issues, a new version of show 0001 is being uploaded as we speak.  Gonna take some time for me to figure all of this out….
