I'd appreciate some help (finding an Apple II)

[AuburnTiger]

Hello, all. I'd like to discuss some things and maybe ask for advice.

I would love to get an Apple II like I had in elementary school. I don't know for sure which version I had, but I think I'd be happy with any of them. (A side question: Was Oregon Trail availabe for these, or am I remembering an IBM game?)

Where would I go about looking for one, and what can I expect to pay? I'd like to have the whole set up, along with a few games or software programs (do those huge floppies survive this long?!). Please let me know what you think is best, I'm not familiar with buying older computers.

I also played Oregon Trail in Elementary School and I'm almost positive it was on an Apple. Not sure if it was an old Mac or a II, though.

You can get Oregon Trail and other old Mac games from this site. (they run in Classic in OS X)

I used to play oregon trail.. I used to have it on a Macintosh IICI... I think it was designed for macintosh , not Apple II....
