Re: Apple IIGS newbie

Hmmm, if the IIGS has no operating system then perhaps a
Mac may be needed.   Unless one were to boot a
Prodos 8 program like ProTerm A2 from either a 3.5" or a
5.25" disk drive, assuming the GS had a modem......I don't
seem to recall that such was the case in the original post.
I did find that the disk images are located on Apple's page
of software updates under Apple 2 software.  Having a Mac
myself, the download and execution of the .sea archive resulted
in a bootable system disk from which the other disks, seven in
all, can be read or installed on a hard drive.
