The Apple //gs has backward compatibility with all the
previous Apple ][
models and takes up the same footprint of the Apple //c, plus it's just
the nicest system to have hooked up out of all three. You can play all
the old stuff and all the new (GS-specific) stuff.
I'd not realized it was the same footprint. In that case, this probably is
the best way for me to go. Plus I think I can easily get to at least one of
my //gs's. The doc's, and the box of stuff for it will no doubt be more
interesting...
Look for Apple Disk Transfer or ADT. There are DOS
and Windows versions.
Very nice software. Transfers via serial port to/from Apple ][ (disk
image from Apple to PC or disk image from PC to Apple disk). The //gs has
a built-in serial port. The //c does also but depending on what revision
you have it may be buggy (can't go over a certain baud rate).
Thanks! That's what I was thinking of. Though I used a Mac version to
transfer files between my SE/30 and //e.
Is there a //gs program to do this? It would be easier to write disks with
the emulator images on my PowerBook 520c, and then use the //gs to write
them to 5.25" floppies.
