Truth be told, My IIGS has only been used as a text reader, a card maker
(since I'm too lazy to redo my designs on my mac, heck I haven't even
replaced The Print Shop IIGS), and occasionally a word processor these
last few years. I use it to display text files while I'm doing something
with the mac, and occasionally I use the IIGS finder to do a copy or move
on my mac's hard drive when I do not want to replace duplicate items.
Other than that, I haven't done much with it. I haven't even kept up with
new developements since Wolfenstein 3D came out. I only popped back in the
newsgroup for guidence on obtaining a new monitor, though my mother tells
me that a friend of hers might know where to get one for free, or for the
price of bringing in my broken one for a trade (nobody will notice since
they've been unused for years).

I only own two computers, and both are obsolte. An Apple IIGS and a
Powermac 6500. It looks like it'll be some time before my next upgrade,
like another 4 years before I can afford it. Damn college debt.
