   GS/OS is copyrighted by Apple, and only *legally* available from
them or their authorized distributors. You can get it for free from
Apple FTP sites, and it's available in a _REAL_ Apple II friendly
format-- binscii'd skrinkit'd disk images. 

   Unfortunately, emulator authors don't appear to give a * about
legitimate users or file formats. I don't care too much about that,
since (1) I have a real Apple II that does great, and (2) makes it
real simple to find the pirated emulator crud.
