History

The Revival Of The Rev 0 Project. In late 2018 Logan discovered Mike Willegal's website and took interest in his Rev 0 project. He found the idea of reproducing the Rev 0 PCBs an interesting proposition. Interested in learning new things, Logan decided in early 2019 to order some PCBs with the intent to build a working unit and selling the extra boards to the Community. He announced his project in the Apple II Enthusiast's group on Facebook shortly after.

On April 09,2019 Logan ordered 5 blank PCB boards from JLCPCB. He also started to scavenge parts from a broken II+ he owned, and ordered the rest needed to complete an assembled a board.

By May Logan already sold a few blank boards.

In early May Logan contacted Henry to discuss the project and ask for advise about parts, production, and having ReActiveMicro assist in selling the boards.
