The route I am planning to take, as I rebuild my IIGS, is burn CDRW's
on my PC with appropriate 800k disk images. I (will) have a CDROM
drive on the IIGS, and I'll just write the images to disk on the IIGS
using Asimov or dsk2file or etc.
Of course, finding a SCSI card for the IIGS has not been the easiest
(or cheapest) thing to find on the web....
