Apple IIc

Apple Inc., ZDA

Opis:

Bež računalnik, zgoraj v levem kotu mavrični logo Apple. [SLO]: Apple IIc, lansiran leta 1984, je pomemben član serije Apple II. Oglaševan kot prenosni računalnik, je bil zasnovan za enostavno prenašanje, vključno z priročnim ročajem za nošenje. Za razliko od mnogih prenosnih računalnikov tistega časa, Apple IIc ni imel vgrajenega zaslona. Vendar so uporabniki lahko kupili enobarvne tekočekristalne zaslone posebej ali v paketu s sistemom. Tehnično gledano je bil Apple IIc bolj kompakten in uporabniku prijazen kot Apple IIe, saj je ohranil večino njegove funkcionalnosti, a se odpovedal nekaj razširljivostim. Ključne lastnosti so vključevale vgrajen 5,25-palčni disketnik, 128 KB RAM-a, serijska vrata za povezavo modema in tiskalnika ter vsestranski priključek, ki je omogočal priklop joysticka ali miške. Apple II je pionirski primer tipkovniškega računalnika, izraz, ki opisuje sisteme, pri katerih je bil celoten računalnik vgrajen v ohišje tipkovnice. Ti računalniki so se običajno prodajali brez monitorja, saj so bili zasnovani za neposredno povezavo s standardnim televizorjem, kar je pripomoglo k nižanju stroškov. Ta pristop k oblikovanju je bil značilen za konec sedemdesetih in začetek osemdesetih let prejšnjega stoletja, obdobje, ki je prineslo tudi druge ikonične naprave, kot so Atari, Commodore 64 in Amiga. Pomembno je omeniti, da si je Apple celo zagotovil patent za napravo, ki je združevala računalnik in tipkovnico v eni enoti. [ENG]: The Apple IIc, launched in 1984, is a notable member of the Apple II series. Touted as a portable computer, it was designed to be easily transported, complete with a convenient carrying handle. Unlike many portable computers of its era, the Apple IIc lacked a built-in display. However, users could purchase monochrome liquid-crystal displays separately or bundled with the system. Technically, the Apple IIc was a more compact and user-friendly version of the Apple IIe, retaining much of its functionality while sacrificing some expandability. Key features included a built-in 5.25-inch floppy drive, 128 KB of RAM, serial ports for connecting a modem and printer, and a versatile port that could accommodate either a joystick or a mouse. The Apple II is a pioneering example of the keyboard computer, a term used to describe systems where the entire computer was integrated into the keyboard casing. These computers were typically sold without a monitor, as they were designed to connect directly to a standard television, which helped to keep costs down. This design approach was characteristic of the late 1970s and early 1980s, an era that also saw the rise of other iconic machines such as the Atari, Commodore 64, and Amiga. Notably, Apple even secured a patent for a device that combined both the computer and keyboard into a single unit.
