I used to have one, it was awesome, way ahead of its time. I used to sell them, and Apple gave the dealers a massive discount on them for employee's ownership. So these $1500 babies went for $250 even with extra memory (PCMCIA) and a games and tools disk. I sold it 2 years later for $450. Nice toy.

When Microsoft got us to sell BoB, their reps came by the stores with swag, and got the t-shirt. I still have it today with the big smilie in the middle, and only wear it for the retro look. immaculate condition... should sell it on eBay. |

i personally like this about the Apple 3...
"In order to correct the issue, Apple tech support could be heard saying "please lift up your Apple 3 about 10 centimeters off the desk, and drop it." this would put the chips back in the slots sometimes."
