How about a subscription to COMPUTIST?  Probably a more appropriate place
for this sort of thing than comp.sys.apple...

COMPUTIST
Subscription Department
PO Box 110846-T

Features copy protection removal for Apple II's, some Mac stuff, and (recently)
an occasional IBM program.  Also has program modifications, cheats, and the
usual character editing/map listing programs.  Subscriptions are $32/year.

On the //gs, you can generate interupts at 1 seconds intervals, 1/4 second,
1/60 second, or on each scan line.  All from software.  That should be
enough.
