  • 10 Years of New Apple II User's Guide

    From D Finnigan@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jun 30 15:03:49 2022
    Ten years ago this month I published The New Apple II User's Guide after working on the book for the past 2 years. At nearly 800 pages, it was a whopper! The book has typically retailed for $25, though occasionally I've
    put it on sale.

    Over the past decade, 1,475 copies of the book have sold, including one sold today. This number reflects the size of the Apple II community, and while no doubt many readers who bought the book a decade ago are not as active with
    the Apple II any more, it still gives some sense of the number of users out there.

    So let this figure, nearly 1,500 books sold, encourage current and future
    Apple II projects: there is a market for your work, be it hardware,
    software, another book, or something related.

    Thanks everyone who has bought the book or helped out with it.

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts - and for creating the book in the first
    place :-)

    Thanks for the book and the memories David. My copy sits on the shelf with Weyrich's "Sophistication and Simplicity" and Isaacson's "Steve Jobs" directly across from the Apple //e and the Apple IIGS in my somewhat cluttered Office and Lab.
