I have a C.V. Tech GS Ram card with a fully populated 1 MB Apple Memory
Expansion card (yuck!) piggy-backed to it.  I have just ordered a ZIP GSx
8/16, and I want to know a couple of things...

First of all, I'm not going to want to pay an arm-and-a-let just to get some
more fast-cashe for the ZIP.  Has anyone (I know there have been people) filled
their ZIPs with 64k cache on their own?  If you have, can you tell me what
companies you used to buy your chips, what speed, and anything else you'd
deam pertinent information for me to have?  I'd really appreciate some help.
Keep in mind that I'm no electrical engineer, so I know the basics, but that's
about it.  I would like to get my ZIP up to 64k cache the cheapest way I
possibly can...and I know I can do it without ZIP Technologies.

Secondly, I want to also get more memory into my C.V. Tech card.  I have been
doomed by the AME card, but I can at least get more into the C.V. Tech.  What
kind of chips should I get for it, and where should I get them?  Can someone
also tell me how fast the chips should be?  I probably want to get about 2 more
MegaBytes of memory, and if I can do this for under $60, I'd like to really
try.

Thanks for the help guys.  I appreciate all the help you all have been giving
me both in finding a memory card inexpensively, and also in helping me figure
out things around the network.  Your help is really appreciated, and I hope to
be a guru around here sometime.  Hope the II lasts that long!

See 'ya! Thanks in advance.

I was wondering if there is a NDA/Finder Extension/whatever for the
System 6.0 that will allow me to "peek" inside a Shrinkit archive.

A lot of the times, I wished I knew what files were in a particular archive,
and it is such a pain to load GSHK just to find out that it's the wrong
one.  A NDA/Finder Extension that will do this would be great!

Well, if anyone wants to run system 6 efficiently, 2mb is not really
"luxuries".  I think the same goes for zip too.  If they ever experience a IIgs
with zip/twgs in it, they probably won't think of it as luxuries.

I don't think it's all that slow.  I'm only running at 7MHz, and although it
takes a couple of seconds to render each font, most documents come up quite
quickly.  There are some exceptions: the documentation for ProBOOT IIGS
can take a couple of minutes or longer to open because of the number of
fonts and styles used.  A perfect opportunity to get a soda or something. :)
Programmers are known for not getting up unless the computer is occupied.

I didn't miss hundreds of posts. I just told you I spent over a half an

Good Christ. First of all, I have an Apple IIgs. Secondly, I download
lots of stuff, so I _do_ have an interest. Meaning also, I am an 'actual

of Info'ing the trash can and shutting it off, but after a restart or

Any suggestions? I've got ResEdit, so if there's a way to do it there,
that's a possibility.

        I got my 35ns chips from Microprocessors Unlimited (918) 267-4961
        The chip number is 62256-35 and were $14 apiece when I got them -
        you'll need two for each 32K you want.  Of course, make sure you
        orient them in the proper direction when you install 'em.  My 9/64
        has been working perfectly since I installed that second 32K.
        BTW, their actual part number is Sony_CXK58258P-35 (the chips, that
        is).

I've recently heard that FTA had released more than just Nucleus, Photonix and
the Space Harriers' demo.  Anybody know what these are and how to get them?

Damien, PFS:file is a pascal program.  The files are in pascal
format.  There is a way to convert the files but it's a real pain.
If you have two computers it's not to bad, if you don't you need a
friend with a modem.  With two computers you need a null modem cable,
one computer running PFS, one running a termal program (proterm will
do) that can capture ascii to disk (by modem you have to make a
conection and exit the term software without hanging up on one end
and run PFS).  Then you have PFS print to the modem/null modem and
save it as ascii on the other computer .  You can then import the
ascii file into appleworks.

	Could someone(s) tell me what flight simulators there are
available for the II? Both gs and //e? I've never been into them
before but would like to try them out now. I figger there must
have been some written during the Golden Age of the //. Are they
still commercially available? If not, would anyone be willing to
part with one they have? Oh, I already have 'Chuck Yeager's Advanced
Flight Trainer' from a friend who gave me a pile of old // disks.
						Thanx!

Heck, I run out of memory all the time and I have 4Mb... I need to buy at
least another meg... :)

PS: I remember when 16K was more than I could possibly fill up.  Now I can
fill that in a days' worth of coding... :)

I just wanted to let everyone know that the Sanyo 65816's work..and they're
nice to boot! Anyways, using a circa-1989 TWGS upgraded to 32k cache w/ 35ns
Ram chips, I simply plugged in a Sanyo '816 chip and a 55Mhz crystal giving
my GS an effective clock rate of about 13.75 MHz...man, is it cool!! I've had
no problems with it, but it should have been impossible, as the gate arrays
on the TWGS are rated at 12.5 MHz....so much for specs. But then, I don't
think anyone else was able to get reliable operation past 12 MHz....maybe
I'm just plain lucky (which is what they all called me at KFest!) Now to
upgrade to 25ns cache Ram and see if 15Mhz will work!
