Re: Accelerator for IIgs

["Steven M. Fish" <iigs_deletethis@bytebucket.com>]

I have been checking regularly at Goodwill. I saw a sound card recently
and since the entire IIgs with card was selling for about $4, I almost
bought the computer, removed the card, redonated the computer.  I do
enjoy buying from them.  It keeps my Apple II interest up and helps the
community in some small way.

Thanks for everyone's input once again!
