Is there any reason to keep ROM 01 IIgs units? I have both ROM 01 and ROM
03 units. I know the ROM 03 has advantages over the ROM 01, so given that
I have both, is there a reason to keep a ROM 01? Is there anything a ROM
01 can do or is needed for that can't be done on a ROM 03?
Of course, I am keeping my ROM 00 unit... just because.

AFAIK, no. I only keep ROM 03's in stock, myself; in fact, my Woz 00 was
replaced with a ROM 03 mo'bo'.

Besides having 1mb memory on board instead of 256k, whats the advantage of
the 03?

Larger Toolbox ROM as well (required, I think, for certain higher versions
of GS/OS). ROM 03 IIgses can also netboot over LocalTalk from an
appropriately configured server.

So a rom1 cant netboot over localtalk?
I was under the assumption that GS/OS 6.01 used an updated toolbox from disk
rather then the rom routines.
I have a 01 rom , was thinking about getting an 03 just for the extra
memory.

Well, plug in a Sirius, and you get more Mem then you'll ever use.

There are supposed to be a few programs in existance that hat
problems with ROM 03 ... But I think these are rather exotic
variations. If you want to use an Apple II, then a ROM 03 GS
is the only logical coice.
Now, if you are realy throwing out ROM 00 or 01 IIgs, I would
be interested in the boards (including the parts).
