What a bumper year it's been for IIGS hardware: The custom built IIGS portable, version 2.0 of the CFFA card (review coming soon!) and the updated Focus Controller and Sirius RAM by Tony Diaz. It's certainly felt there's been a resurgence of interest for the IIGS in 2008.
Hello Apple II and digital restoration fans!
At the same time as I’ve been collating and preparing the new ‘What is the Apple IIGS?’ website I’ve also been preparing a coffee table book of the same title.
I don't know what it is about me, but I've always backed the underdog. It could be said that the Apple IIGS was such a beast; industry pundits noting only its weak points, meeting with limited success and the machine itself being abandoned by the very company that had produced it.
