Apparently the computer Belle is lying on (yesterday's post) is called an Apple IIe. My commenters had excellent guesses about when the picture was taken. My folks bought the computer for Christmas 1983, and continued to use it till the beginning of the 1990s. The picture of Belle was taken in 1989. Belle lived until she was nearly 14 human years old and went to the Rainbow Bridge in 2003.
Mom tells me in the"old days" they mostly used the computer for word processing, and the internet had not been "discovered" then. And that the screen was not in color, and the computer didn't have a hard drive. I cannot believe any of that. She must be wrong.
