That's so cool that you got your old Apple II files onto your new machine. I started using computers in 1987, and I've always been a Mac guy. Never was too big into the Apple IIs, but I've got a similar collection of old games and various other files that I made on my Mac SE back in the day. Luckily, I don't have the hardware troubles of actually getting the data onto my new machine, but the problem is that it's unusable now. Mac OS X isn't exactly compatible with the black-and-white gems of yesteryear.

I have found an emulator, but it's glitchy and inexplicably refuses to run the old apps that I made. I need to find a better one... but emulating a Mac on a Mac is apparently not in much demand. So I guess you could say that I'm on a similar quest to yours, though probably not as hardcore.

Eh, that's all I wanted to say. You know I don't post here often. But I thought your new Site Journal entry was great and I thought I'd let you know that I can relate. Just one question: Now that your quest has finally come to an end, what are you going to do with yourself?
