You have a diskette, and you want to start fresh. So you run “INIT HELLO” on your Apple II and you get a clean slate.

A new Apple II conference is coming to the System Source Computer Museum north of Baltimore, Maryland, this July 26–27, 2025.
Aaaaaand that's a wrap on the inaugural #INITHELLO! Thanks to everyone who came out to support us! Looking forward to doing this again next year!
