MouseDesk was later purchased by Apple and renamed the Apple II Desktop. It
was used as the first GUI for the IIgs before the IIgs Finder was written. It
can be found on the early IIgs system software (1.0 and possibly 2.0). It can
also be run and used on a IIc (and presumably other 128K 8 bit Apple IIs).
