I haven't posted on here in years if ever. The above is a good question but
I have another coupple more. I have a IIgs at home and I use a sparc20/71
at work. On a recent trip I was amazed how well x-windows terminals
worked from another sparc at the University of Michigan and from a Power Mac
at Indiania University in Bloomington. I tried from a PC at IU but there was
no x-terminal program installed just plain old text based telnet. The biggest
problem I encountered was that the ADB mouse only has one button. Do they make
ADB mice with three buttons? (Yes, I actually use all three.)
The last time I looked for gs software I used wuarchive.wustl.edu but there
has been nothing new on there for years. Before that I used husc.harvard.edu
or something like that but it is no longer around. Are there any good iigs
ftp sites currently alive?
In sum:
1. Is there x windows software around for the gs?
2. Are there Apple Desktop Bus Mice with more than one button available?
3. What are the current sites for picking up Apple II and Apple IIgs software?
