Congratulations! It's nice to install a GS, isn't it?
Now try the same with a PC! Two years later...  :(

That's good! You can run more programs with the ROM1 version (FTA demos
and older games). I give you the advice: Don't upgrade your system
unless you want to network your machine. The only benefit of ROM3 seems
to be that it will give you an extra slot when you use AppleTalk.

Windows error #247 : Large hard disk detected - filling with crap!

Enjoy your new system!

BTW, if anybody has more cool jokes and GIF's for my I-hate-Windows
