Re: Apple IIgs in IIe case?

[Michael Lam <wy2lam@undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca>]

It was an "upgraded" IIe.  Apple actually accepted IIe's and upgrade everything
but the case in 1986. (I don't know if it was done later than that)...

I guess it is pretty rare (but not as rare as Woz version of course) if it is
authentic I guess you should keep it ;) A collector's piece...

(no, it is not even ROM01.  It is the oldest //gs with the toolbox intact...)

<OFFTOPIC>

While we're at it...have you wondered from time to time why ZSNES runs so damn
faster than your //gs emulator?  They use the same CPU and the SNES also had its
own graphics and sound chips...if there isn't any, is anyone interested in
writing a //gs emulator with speed as its primary concern?

Given the tons of docs on the // series available (both official and unofficial)
and some opensource emulators like KEGS, it is not really that hard to
accomplish if we have enough manpower...
