Hello friends !
I'm one of the few Apple IIc-Users in West-Germany......
Mac is IN, Apple II is OUT (in contrast to the USA)
(The problem is, that Apple II is too expensive in Germany, Mac
is expensive too, but a good computer !)
All my friends are laughing because of my Apple (They own Amigas and Ataris and
386-PCs) ! In adition to that Apple Munich supports only Macintosh users. 
I think the last joke was the Apple IIc PLUS ! But I'm satisfied with my
Apple //c: 
But I need something to complete my computer system:

A 3,5" UniDisk (the old, intelligent one for the IIc (the white one))
A RAM - expansion (perhaps 256k or 512k or with a clock or with Z80)
A Scheme-interpreter / compiler !

Perhaps you can help me, because I'm looking for 2nd hand hardware and
software.

Three small questions:
1.
Because I love Finder of the Mac, I work with the Apple II Desktop from
VERSION SOFT. (In Germany it is called 'Mousedesk')
But there are some problems: Every time I try to copy a disk with the
copy funktion from the menu, the IIc tries to copy the disk. Sometimes
it works, most time it doesn't. After copying a disk nothing works at all.
(It remains completely silent). Even the mousepointer (arrow) doesn't move.
I have to switch off the computer or reboot (open-apple-ctrl-reset).
I've tried to use many versions of the Apple II Desktop. Perhaps you can
help me ! 
2.
A long time ago I bought a new ROM (because of the 3.5" Unidisk).
Now I can't start the second 5.25" drive with 'PR#7': It appears:
"AppleTalk Offline" - What's that ? - How can I use AppleTalk ?
What the different betwenn the two ROMs ?
3.
Long time ago (September 1988) I ordered a ZIP-CHIP !!!!! 
What's the matter with Zip-Technologies ?
What's about my money ?
Did someone ever got a ZIP after paying the money ? 
 

Thanks in advance.....     Jens Michael Schuh

P.S.: I wrote this text with the help of five living dictionaries. I hope
      someone can read and understand it.
