Why Use Apple IIgs Forever? Add 32-bits Support!



Why Use Apple IIgs Forever?  Add 32-bits Support!

    I wonder why all of you want to live with Apple II family until today.
If it is true that PC has most computer programming than Macintosh does,
Apple IIgs might be easier to learn computer language before you move to PC.
    Why do some programmers design Emulator saying, they will support 12MB
instead of 8MB near the future?  Why System ROM 04 + 05 were discontinued
BEFORE they were going to ship out of the manufacturer?
    My question is System ROM 01 + 03 are copyrighted.  It may mean that
each of us are not allowed to modify System ROM 01 + 03 into new
Emulation--System ROM 06 without needing ROM chip!
    It is very interested to discuss for a while that I might give you some
ideas.  It is my plan below.
    I will add 32-bits over 16-bits and 8-bits.  I will add 16777216 colors
over 4096 colors on Super Resolution that will look like 640x480, 800x600,
and higher.  New GS/OS 7.0 might be created that will show ProDOS-32 over
ProDOS-16 and ProDOS-8 by overcoming the limitation of 32MB that might be
expanded up to 2GB.  With 32-bits, it will support up to 2GB RAM!
    Remember: Limitation to 65816 instructions.  New opcodes will be added
over 65816 instructions to support large memory by switching from Bank 0000
to FFFF instead of Bank 00 to FF.  With System ROM 06, it allows us to
switch to support 8-bits, 16-bits, and 32-bits.
    It is all my dream while I am working on my project that expands the
improvement over Apple IIgs' System ROM 01 and ROM 03.  Please advise with
my idea, but I am not sure if it is legal with the copyright of System ROM
01 and ROM 03.
