Ask HN: What do do with an Apple IIGS

3 pointsby alexandersonover 7 years ago
I inherited an old Apple IIGS and got it running this weekend. It's got all the necessary system disks along with a slew of HyperCard stacks. After reliving my childhood with some old Atari and Accolade games, I'm at a loss what to do with it. Any suggestions?

I remember reading somewhere[0] that they were used in the early days of Super Nintendo development due to similar chipsets.<p>[0] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.patpend.net&#x2F;articles&#x2F;ar&#x2F;sil10.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.patpend.net&#x2F;articles&#x2F;ar&#x2F;sil10.html</a>

Good thing you inherited some software with it, and that it works.<p>I would suggest applying some Google Fu to find a user group that you can trade with.<p>If you are a Linux user, you can probably use it as a terminal - connected via serial.
