Hi Jeff,
What exactly in the GS is capable of taking advantage of the
benefits of a co-processor? Most programs I know of would have to
be re-written to take advantage of it. I know this was considered
for the 65816 cpu, but AFAIK it was never developed properly.
Unlike the current crop of PC compilers which supply routines to
use in the case that no co-processor exists, the Apple II series
never had that luxury, thus by itself the co-processor is useless
except for new projects.

Have you fed your Apple today?

It seems the ZIP.TO link was down for a while.
It is now working again. This is the preferred
