no seriously
after 23 years the apple II gets another OS update
though not form apple ( if that was the case it would be a massive surprise )

>>Yesterday, software developer John Brooks released what is clearly a work of pure love: the first update to an operating system for the Apple II computer family since 1993. ProDOS 2.4, released on the 30th anniversary of the introduction of the Apple II GS, brings the enhanced operating system to even older Apple II systems, including the original Apple ][ and ][+.

Which is pretty remarkable, considering the Apple ][ and ][+ don't even support lower-case characters.<<

This week:

skeletonbow's snot bubble gets delayed to 2017

Kind of late for an update. Now... where can I buy a floppy?

Amazon, perhaps? (No, not the rainforest.)

There are other results you can find when searching if, for example, you specifically need 5.25 inch disks.

You could also check eBay, if you're into this sort of thing.
