How should I kill this Apple II E

[damocles]

The Apple IIE was an awesomely cool computer in it's day

tying it to your car and driving around sounds pretty damn cool to me.

You could also get out your soldering iron, and solder a bunch of the connections together, maybe use a little wire to run between the connections that are further apart. Then plug it into a long extension cord, the plug the extension cord in to an outside 110 receptacle(SP?). HAHAHA

i found one out side the comp department i took it. Took it apart every part of it. Took the tube and threw it from the rooff. smashed the pcb with every blunt object including feet. and stomped the case to death. it was fun

take it to the top of a huge building
you know 20+ floors
and drop it
make sure to take pictures or video tape it
then post the pictures/video at anandtech

make sure there are no people walking under it when you drop it.

So much violence in one thread...

Lol cbeater!

Any more suggestions?

Bolt a chain to it and actually use for a boat anchor. Everyone always calls old computers 'boat anchors' and it will make people crack-up to see you using it.

 

[Chrishuff1]

not a bad idea😀

You guys go ahead destroy them like crazy, the more you smash the better. For me my AppleII+ will be kept right along side my HP35 calculator, since they are both pieces of computer history the day will come when it will be valued.

The AppleII was and remains an execellent computer. If you want a simple acess to machine language programming... Oh, well, pearls before swine.
