Flickr Find: Apple IIc unboxing


Like geeks everywhere, here at TUAW we like unboxing pics. But unboxing shots from an original Apple IIc? Now that's Apple fan candy! This Apple IIc was recently purchased on eBay and had never been opened before. The lucky buyer posted this Flickr set of the ritual. I particularly love the old rainbow Apple stickers!

Oh, I see, here's a link to a web site of mine,,, with the email link at the bottom of the page. (in reference to, ... if anyone wants to have my old Apple IIc computer (w/o the monitor, but with the power-supply, and I still have a collection of software disks with it too) ) I just thought that there maybe someone out there who might have a reason for wanting it.

I have one that I used in 1987-1989. It's dusty, sitting on a shelf in my laundry room, so if anyone has a need for it, would like to have it, just reply to this message so I can contact you. rgarner

My first computer -- and I'm amused by how much my MacBook reminds me of it. As I remember it, the ImageWriter cost almost as much as the computer.

Yup, we had one of those when I was a kid. The only thing we knew how to do on it was play Ultima and Castle Wolfenstein! what was really cool was that it had video out, so we could plug it into the coax of our huge 15" TV!

My college roommate had one. I had some serious envy.

I actually have one of these sitting in my basement. It's not factory sealed, but it's shiny and even has all the original paperwork and everything. It's next to my NES, in similar condition. :)

Wow. A rare chance to see a guy remove a commercial product from the box it came in.

"Unboxing" photos and the voyeurs who fap to them are so weird.

"Fap" is a weird verb.

I have an unopened package of those exact rainbow stickers! They're in their plastic under the glass of my desk, and I don't know what I'll do with them.

The only thing is, I only have one big and one small one... not two big and one small like it looks like there. That being said, it's still really cool to have them for myself (especially since I'm quite a bit younger than the stickers). The ones in those pictures are newer than mine, I think since those are from '88 and I think mine are from earlier in the decade.

Anybody want 'em? Make an offer (hah!)
