If you want to operate your Mimeo and don't have a ASCII
keyboard available, I strongly recommend you obtain an PS/2
keyboard (with mini DIN connector) and also purchase my PS/2
keyboard
adapter kit. Apple II keyboards can be used
through the use of an adapter.
Connecting an Apple II keyboard directly to an Apple 1
(or visa versa) will fry the keyboard! Vince Briel uses
an Apple II compatible pinout on his Replica 1, so keyboards
are not interchangible between the Replica 1 and a Mimeo (real
Apple 1) without using an adapter.
If you want to run programs on your Mimeo, I
strongly recommend you obtain an iPod and purchase a cassette
interface reproduction kit.
Ordering and Availability:
I am not currently offering complete Mimeo kits, but instead am
working with Unicorn Electronics who are working to put together
parts kits, minus PCBs and PROMs. Order the Mimeo PCB and
PROMs from me and the rest of the parts kit from Unicorn
Electronics. I still supply full kits for the Apple
Cassette Interface and PS/2 adaper.
Send an email
mike@willegal.net
for stock state and ordering instructions.
Sometime, I plan to offer some built up units, including some in
replica wooden cases. Send me an
email to get on a waiting
list, if you are interested in exploring that option.
