AprilApples Apple II Computer Event LogoLast year, ][ got rebranded into , so I wish you a happy retro-month filled with April Apples!

[Wayback/Archive] Welcome to #AprilApples! Apple II Computer event celebrated in the month of April

Consider using the [Wayback/Archive] #AprilApples Style Guide with logon on the right, plus Garamond and/or Motter Tektura typeface when possible to really give tribute to the Apple ][ era.


Last year, a big surprise was that Apple Computer put a PDF version of the famous Apple Pascal Poster on the Internet Archive.

So today is a great day to give that more traction and link to it:

A year before, during April][, a remake of that poster got done on AppleFritter: Home[Wayback/Archive] Apple pascal poster, remade | Applefritter

Images (I used a solid CSS brown background so you can see the difference between the regular logo and the outlined logo):
