Mr. Fixit Source Released for Apple ][ Prosel

After a request by Willi Kuche, the Apple ][ community came together and managed to come up with two versions of the source code for Glen Bredon’s Mr. Fixit for Prosel 8.  Being as no original source code was available, two people in particular disassembled the program and have posted their respective versions to the internet.

Antoine Vignau of Brutal Deluxe Software posted his Merlin based version of the source code at:

Willi Kuche also decided to create a version as well, however, his version is Kyan Assembler based.  The version he has created also goes a bit more in depth in the comments than the Merlin based version, according to notes in the CSA2.  No download link has been provided for the Kyan Assembler based source yet, however we have contacted the author for the information.

For those interested in other Glen Bredon materials, you can check out the complete Glen Bredon archives at

The only items not in the archives are the items related to the Big Mac assembler which is distributed by A.P.P.L.E.

Apple Source : Apple ][ is country’s best seller

The Apple ][ is country's best seller?  This is what Phil Roybal, Apple Computer's marketing manager expressed to us when we asked him recently.  Apple's new Shuggart mini-floppy has now been officially announced at an unbelievably low $495.  The Delievery is scheduled to commence in lat June.  This drop of $200 was enough to influence our decision to buy.

The Applesoft II ROM board will be available at $100 for an introductory period only, running through July 31st, at which time the retail price will become $200.  Better get yours quickly!.

Apple has announced price reductions in 16K Apple ]['s from $1445 to $1195 and and 16K chip sets from $500 to $300.

We were fortunate enough to be able to see a pre-release copy of Apple's new editor-assembler, written by Gary Shannon and Randy Wiggington.  The program is tentatively slated for a fall release.  Randy describes it as the most comprehensive editor-assembler ever produced, bar none and says it will even outperform IBM's.
