9660 discs work with the IIGS, but because the file attributes can't
be stored using 9660, so you can only put Shrinkit GS archives on it.
HFS, of course, DOES store IIGS file attributes, so you can directly
run programs from such discs.
DiscQuest and DiscQuest encyclopedia CD-ROM collections are
9660 data CD-ROMs that include an interface for the IIGS to use.
