Subject: Re: Looking for a Franklin Ace 2000 From: obsbedia2@aol.com (Obsbedia2) Date: Fri, Dec 25, 1998 21Ç21ˆ Message-id: <19981225232145.26466.00001783@ng136.aol.com> The Franklin 2000, 2100 and 2200 are more IIe clones than IIc. In other words, they're not meant as portables and they have two internal slots for cards. Add a mouse and a hard drive and you're filled, unless you can track down the external expansion module. The manual describes them as equivalents to the IIe and IIc, but I believe that that has more to do with computing power (128K, 80 column and Double HiRes displays). The internal 5.25" drives are nice in the ability to write to extra tracks, but the processor is a less exact copy of the IIe than the Franklin Ace 1000 was of the Apple II+. Jay Edwards
