Laurie Bader of Saskatoon was kind enough to donate a complete Apple ][e computer system to the museum. This collection of objects included several pieces of hardware including a Koala pad, many 5-1/4" diskettes with software, several books and manuals, as well as original Apple posters.
The donated collection consists of the following items:
- Apple ][e computer

- Apple 3-1/2" disk drive
- Koala touch sensitve pad

- Nikrom Master Diagnostic and disk drive cleaning kit

What is really great about this collection of items are the number of items that are extremely hard to find. Usually stickers, posters and manuals are some of the first thing to be thrown away. The museum thanks Laurie for donating this fine collection so that others may enjoy it in the future.
