Check this out! http://8bitsystem.com/?page_id=56 , James Littlejohn is building his own GS laptop and documenting the whole thing so that anyone else that wants to can do the same thing. It might not turn out as fancy as Ben's but on the other hand it will probably be more practical and anyone...

Wow! 8-o You've got me curious what all you have in your GS that you've got all the slots filled? Dean

Nope, none at all. Of course I pretty much use it simply for game playing but I could run Appleworks with it if I needed to. Dean

Another possibility is to get an old Playstation LCD monitor and plug the composite output from the IIc into the video in on the Playstation LCD. You can see mine here: http://blackfletch.freeservers.com/appleIIc.htm Dean

Yeah it could be called "Obsessive Computer Collecting Disorder" and characterized by the need to collect massive amounts of outdated computer hardware and software. [:)] ]'> Dean

Greetings, I was curious if anyone remembers the add-on scenery disks for Flight Simulator II? Back in the day I had scenery disk 3, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and San Francisco. Having gotten rid of all my Apple II stuff a few years back I no longer have this disk, though I do have the charts that...

About the best thing you can do to make the IIc+ portable would be to add a Playstation LCD screen to it, like I did with my original IIc. You can see pictures of it here: http://blackfletch.freeservers.com/appleIIc.htm I need to add some more pictures I've taken that show the back of the LCD...

Actually ADTPro will help you transfer the Apple II client from the PC to the GS. In fact if you don't have a PRODOS disk ADTPro will bootstrap the GS from bare metal to a useable copy of the Apple II client. You can read the details of how to do it on the ADTPro page. I use it all the time to...

Since you already have the cables what you need is this software: http://adtpro.sourceforge.net/ ADTPro will let you easily transfer disk images between your Mac/PC and the GS. Is it disk images of 5.25 games you want to put on 3.5 disks? Or are you wanting to take 5.25 disks that you...

Answered the survey with Original IIc before I was even sure. I just did the PRINT PEEK (64447) and it returned 255 which means I was correct. Got the IIc off of eBay and it initially didn't work. Had a friend open it up and look at it. He thought he hadn't fixed it but it turned out he did. So...

Check this website: http://rich12345.tripod.com/hugeapplecrate/index.html this guy has been posting to CSA2 about this project. He currently has 16 Apple IIe motherboards but would ultimately like to put together 32. His page makes an interesting read. Magnus

The problem could be in the chips on the apple extended 80 column card. Try pushing them in, to make sure they are all seated correctly. Beyond that I have no idea, but maybe somebody else here can help. Magnus

Did you download AGS from the BerliOS page or did you go to the new site at Sourceforge and download verion 2.0? Here's the link to the Sourceforge page: http://a2gameserver.sourceforge.net/ Dean

Okay, here's a suggestion for a few Role Playing Games, all the Bard's Tale games, Wizardry 1-3 and 5, Might and Magic I and II (if you can find copies online that aren't .nib, which is impossible to transfer back to real disks). Also possibly any of the Ultima series, I have them but haven't...

Unfortunately old programs are the only ones that are available for the IIe. No one has written a commercial program for the II line in about 10 or 15 years. There are one or two people who have written a new game or two, but those are few and far between and are simply done by users like us...

The GS can read Mac HFS disks. Unless you have a Superdrive hooked up to the GS you can only read 800k HFS floppies. If you have a way to hook up a hard disk or CD ROM drive to the GS you can read Mac HFS hard drives or CD-ROMs. Dean

Got to: http://adtpro.sourceforge.net/ and download the latest copy of ADTPro. With this program, and the right serial cables, you can connect your GS to your Mac and transfer the disk images to the GS which will write them to a 5.25 disk or 3.5 disk as part of the transfer program. With ADTPro...

I had to go look through a few discussions on comp.sys.apple2 to get a definitive aswer to your question. The ROM 1 is better if you want to be able to run ALL the programs that were released for the Apple IIGS. When they released the ROM 3 version there was some of the early GS stuff that...

I respect your opinion and agree that I also prefer the real Apple IIGS to any sort of emulator. Having said that, I also am intrigued by the idea of an Apple IIGS that I can take with me. I have looked at the website on hacking a real GS into a portable version but it stops after talking about...

I take it you're thinking of being able to hook it into a LAN or would you actually be thinking about being able to get online and web surf with this? Just curious what you have in mind, Dean
