Blast from the past...
I did what you said about hitting F8...
The only thing that doesn't work now are the OpenApple commands in the Finder,
yet I can Alt-Ctrl-F2 (OA-Ctrl-Esc), which is strange. There's also apparently
no way to "save" the battery-backed RAM so the "clock" persists in being 2
hours ahead of my IBM clock. The "HD" is write protected as is /RAM in the
BASIC.System interpreter, so I can't do that much with it.
But damn, it is SO weird seeing a real live Apple //gs screen as though it were
only yesterday that I'd *had* an Apple //gs for real.
Kudos to you, even if you didn't expect your program to work under Win98. :)
