   What you're suggesting is a setup like I have that gives me access to
my other systems.  I use a CT100c 100mb hard drive, partitioned 4 ways -
25mb each for my IIc.  I have the hard drive hooked to a 2-way 15pin
switchbox that runs to my IIc and IIGS.  By switching the line one way or
another, the CT100c has access to either my IIc or my IIGS.  If you had
something like that, your GS could run AppleTalk and access your hard
drive and your IIc could benefit as well.  My IIGS boots and runs from a
Vulcan Gold 100mb and the CT100c connects via the SmartPort as it does
with the IIc.  That way, you don't have the grief of trying to enable
AppleTalk on a IIc.  Let your GS do the AppleTalk.
