Hi all,
'What is the Apple IIgs' (http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/ )
might seem a bit quiet these days, but I'm working on things behind the
scenes.
One thing I'd like to get the ball rolling with is a hardware section -
I'd like to include short descriptions, images of hardware (memory
cards, accelerators, scanners, etc) and software/driver downloads. I've
already got disk images of software ready, but no images of hardware.
Anyone got the time to quite literally place their expansion cards onto
a flat bed scanner and scan them that way? I don't even have a
definuitive list of GS specific related hardware, but if you let me
know what you can make a scan of by emailing me first, that'd be great.
I've been inching ever closer to getting a complete box scan archive of
every IIgs game that was ever released but there are some that just
still plain elude me. They've never appeared on eBay (well, Star Saga 2
recently appeared, but at the winning price of $112 U.S. I couldn't
justify it!), at least in the last several years, as I've been swooping
up games I didn't have scans for so I could include them into the
archive. The list is as follows:
• Airball, Cavern Cobra, Sea Strike, Sinbad & the Throne of the Falcon.
• Manhunter San Francisco, Mixed Up Mother Goose.
• Bridge 6.0, Strip Poker 2.
• Fast Break, Gnarly Golf, Street Sports Soccer.
• Mighty Marvel, Star Saga 1 & 2.
• Hostage, Vegas Craps.
