Re: Sweet16 2.0 Public Beta 2 updated to 2.0b18

I'm hoping to get the chance to play Arkanoid on my IIGS system... my
3.5" drive doesn't eject - so loading the software may be a
problem. :) (An aside - is there a method of fixing the eject button
so that it works again? Or is it better off for me to sell it?

One of the things I really wish I had was an actual RGB monitor to use
with the IIGS. I have a SecondSight VGA card and the display on my LCD
shows a bunch of
wavy lines when in GS/OS. I haven't had a chance to load any software
onto the IIGS besides GS/OS as I'm waiting for my CMOS battery adaptor
case to come in first.
(Without it, I have to manually go into the Control Panel to change
the slot settings after a cold boot.)

I hope that the ROM5 alluded to on the UltimateApple2 website will
actually include a video card solution that will allow all IIGS video
modes to be supported on a standard
VGA display.

I love to plug the Apple // within the PC Weenies. Hopefully you'll
see a few more cameos in upcoming strips...

Thanks for reading, Greg!
