Wait.  There is a program that will run on a stock IIgs that will display a
.gif file and one for .jpg files?  Come on folks, you all probably have
crazy ideas of an e-mail progam, a TCP/IP program, use of Hewlett-Packard
DeskJet printers, use of 56k modems, etc.  The IIgs just won't do all that.
Wait.  Yeah it will.  AND MORE! :-)  Seriously though, how would .gif or
.jpg viewing be done on a IIgs?  I have a ROM 3 with the standard 1.125? MB
RAM plus 1MB on an Apple brand IIgs card, no accelerator and no hard drive
(I know, I know, Alltech, but money's short, times are hard, right now I
can't afford a SCSI card, or Focus even).  Would that set-up be good enough?
If anyone has any info they want to pass along, I would appreciate it.

Thank you,
