I'm curious, why remove the ability to use GS/OS?  Is it
because you don't have enough RAM to make a good
GS/OS system but more than enough to make the IIGS
into a super IIe clone?  If so...

http://www.allelec.com/ Alltech Electronics sells a nice
internal hard drive called the Focus.  It is an all in one
hard drive on a card.  Even for a system used as a fancy
IIe, this card would add all the benefits of a hard drive.
Besides, it comes with a library of freeware and
shareware ready to use.
