Yeah, but your LC doesn't have the functionality, Hard Disk space, # of
drives, or the software that I had when I sold my IIgs.  Can you say over
100 commercial programs w/ disks and manuals?  Can you say over 90 Megs of
Shareware, 20 of which was registered?  The IIgs can be had for about $300
w/ 12" RGB monitor, keyboard, mouse, and 3.5" disk drive, if you can find
someone who wants to drop one.  Add $100-150 for a refurbished box.  I
still have an LCII, but I know I couldn't get $400 out of it, so I bought
a 50MHz 68040 card for it...
