Hey folks,
A few questions regarding my IIsi:
1) Which OS would be the most optimal for this machine? 6? 7.0? 7.0.1? 7.1?
7.5? etc.
2) I just got in my possession an old IBM 4019 laser printer. If I wanted
to hookup this printer to the IIsi, which version of Powerprint do I need?
3) If I had

If you can get a hold of a copy of AFTERDARK, go for it. It's a neat little
screen saver app. I used to have it on my trusty old IIsi.

There was a program called Before Dark that was a control panel (?). It

Of course for real vintage (not even a Mac but an Apple (IIe?)) watch

Bryan, the IIsi was notorious for it's inconsistent sound quality or lack of
sound for that matter. The best way to fix it was to ignore the built-in
speaker and just use external ones. I bought a cheap pair ($10) for mine,
plugged it into the head phone jacks on the back and the sound was fine
