Message-ID: <1195@kuling.UUCP> Date: 4 Oct 89 21:43:56 GMT Reply-To: hb@kuling.UUCP (Erland Lewin) Organization: Dept. of Computer Systems, Uppsala University, Sweden Lines: 17 I am own one of about a dozen IIGSs in Sweden. The Apple II is not supported by Apple Sweden, so we rely on information from abroad. I have just come into contact with Internet, so forgive me if something is weird. Can I use FTP to request GS programs through internet? Are Apple documents suchas tech-notes and file type information available in this way? Which sites carry this information? I like GSOS, but what really bugs me is that reset reboots the entire computer when using ORCA, as opposed to in Prodos 16 where it only did a 'normal' reset. Is it possible to fix this by intercepting the reset-vector? I will be visiting New York city in December, could you recommend dealers where I could get hardware/software (specially programming)/litterature for the IIGS as cheap as possible? Could you point out the advantages of being an APDA member? What is the current connection between CALL-APPLE and APDA? Thanx. I have forwarded reviews in this conference to the Swedish Apple II community, and we are very grateful.
