It's not a bargain these days. The upgrade kits are fairly rare and would
cost more than the average IIgs box on the used market now, plus you'd have
to gut your //e. If you wanted a "built" IIgs, you'd also run into the problem
of getting a memory card to fit, since few of the 4 mb card designs will fit
in the case. So I'd forget that idea and hunt for a bona fide IIgs box.
