   I beg to disagree. The case definitely has a capital G (unless that
is one crack-smoking font) on the front. It's the _size_ that's
different. [When I'm typing up something on a graphical word processor,
I type 'IIGS' with II in 12 point font, and GS in 10 point font. Given
that this is usenet, I can't do multiple font sizes without making it
very hard for a lot of people to read. So, I stick with IIGS.

   It's the bootup text screen that has IIgs.
