Re:Apple II Modem? (Score 1)

Well, there was a card modem sold for the Apple II that was easily programmed to be a blue/red box. It was the Applecat Modem by a company in California called Novation. It was the thing that really bridged my love of phreaking with my love of computing in the early 1980s. I still have mine as well as my Apple IIgs (sold the //e for a GS sometime in the early to mid 80s) and all my software in the garage somewhere. That Applecat was so damned cool I just could not bring myself to ever sell it. I traveled the world's telephone networks" with my Apple II and my Applecat. I came to learn in the mid-1990s that the firmware for the Applecat was written by Don Brown of CE Software (Quickeys, etc.) -- a very popular Mac software company at the time.
