Actually, I currently have the 8 Apple //e boards in the AppleCrate
plus two I/O-configured Apple //e's.  I just tried a IIgs today, and
it works fine with the speed set slow--I need to find out how to
slow it down briefly so it can usually run fast.  (I had hoped that
a reference to a 5.25" disk controller address would work, but it
doesn't--have to hit the IIgs hardware manual...)
