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.
For some, relatively deep focus, scanners, this works well. But many
new scanners have such poor depth of focus that this will produce a very
poor scan of a card. Using a digital camera is a much better way to
image cards, with attention to focus, lighting, and a plain background
(like a sheet of white paper).
