Are the Apple IIGS motherboard ROM(s) programmed like this?

How about a csa2 effort to make a list of the ROMs that will crater
so that we can start archiving them on CD-ROMs.

The list should also include the type of EPROM that can be used
as a replacement and where to buy the programmers.

This is really sucks....I thought my Apple IIGS would last forever!

And that goes for the unit's peripheral cards too!
