Upgrade IIgs ROM from version 00 to 01

Submitted by austinramsay on February 1, 2008 - 7:28pm

I have a NEW Apple IIgs, I threw in some cards I have and it still works fine. I have a ROM Version 00 though, which will not let me run GS/OS System 6.0.1, correct? How do I upgrade that ROM too a Version 01?

Can you use a Pig-Font Rom in a Apple //e or //e Enhanced?

Submitted by A2forever on February 1, 2008 - 4:39am

Hi...

Can anyone here , tell me if it is possible , too add a Pig-Font Rom to a //e or //e enchanced? This rom was initially designed for the II+ , but I would love to see the code made for the //e or //e enhanced.. It had alot of the great characters that the II+ came with , plus it had lowercase characters , and some really neat extra characters also. This would be a really great mod , if possible.

heres a link that shows the picture that I did some time ago , that illustrates the rom's unique characters :

A hard apple decisionq

Submitted by austinramsay on January 30, 2008 - 7:03pm

Guess what! I found a BRAND NEW Apple IIgs in the lot of apple computers I bought. I don't have a color screen but I have a IIc that I had to stop using today because I wanted to use my new IIgs. Which one should I use, keep the IIgs new and nice, or keep using it. Or use my IIc? Hard decision...

Western US scenery set for Flight Simulator II

Submitted by magnusfalkirk on January 28, 2008 - 10:42am

Greetings,

I was wondering if anyone might know where I can get disk images, or even the actual disks, for the Western US scenery set for Flight Simulator II. Back in the day I had scenery disk 3, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and San Francisco. In fact I've still got the charts for it.

I'd like to get this set to make FS2 for the Apple II an even better flight simulator.

Thanks in advance,
Magnus

Submitted by Twilight_Rodent on January 27, 2008 - 10:32pm

Does anybody know anything about this old site on TriPod that had new Apple IIgs software for sale WarLords and others? A Robert Ryan and maybe a Nathaniel Perkins. It seems thay maybe they never finished what they started.

http://osites.tripod.com/

They maybe on a site called Diigg, then again maybe not. No way to contact them.

Apple 110 baud modem

Submitted by austinramsay on January 27, 2008 - 9:49pm

I went to a school auction and found TONS of apple computers and accessories out in a yard thrown in a big pile, that has been left out in rain and weather, with no care at all. I saved some of the things that worked and bought about 600 floppy disks for a DOLLAR! And bought a whole class room size lot of apple stuff for $1! I know, unbelievable. I found a modem in the stack and tried it out on my IIc. It worked! It tried to dial but I didn't hook in the phone line to it yet. What can I do with it? How do I use it.
