She wonders if: > a.you can still get software for it such as card games .... There are many places you can get Apple II software, especially games: 1. Local Apple II Users Group (may be part of a Mac Group in your area) 2. Sellers of original and second-hand software (See ads on the comp.sys.apple2.marketplace newsgroup and some of the sites, like KulaSoft, listed later. Also check the list of vendors in the Csa2 FAQs 'Main Hall' file. ) 3. Regular posters to this newsgroup will often send diskettes with some utilities and games for the cost of diskettes and mailing. 4. Apple II archives maintain large collections of software which you can download via PC and transfer to your Apple II. (See the list below.)
