Not everything, I'm afraid.  A surprising number of 8-bit programs get
sort of twitchy on the IIgs, and some won't work at all.  Granted that
the IIgs can do more, I don't like its feel as much.  My IIe is accelerated
and has a meg of memory, so it's awfully convenient and has better keyboard
feel to boAnd speaking of g of booting: how come the IIgs (and, for that
matter, the IIc+) is so reluctant to reboot when I press Ctl-OApple-Reset?
That's not a combination one is likely to hit by accident, so why the
reluctance to follow orders?
