Newbie's Big Adventure with IIgs



Finally got the IIgs, and have been playing around the last few days -- nice
machine!

In particular the FOCUS drive was filled with a few extras, including Tato's
Puzznic (?) game which is very impressive.

GOS 6 is much more Mac like than expected. The GUI is a little sluggish but
I hope I can live with it.

I'm suppose to get a RAM card (hope) from Alltech in early June.

Fun stuff. Also was able to format an HFS floppy in the IIgs and read it on
an old Mac -- that will be handy.

-------------------

What's involved with connecting a Mac and IIgs using AppleTalk? How fast is
the connection? Is this a feasible way to back up a partition? (never used
AppleTalk)

Then when it's done, can I see the Mac's drive or desktop on the IIgs (like
if I had an MSDOS disk mounted in the Mac?)?
