I thought it replaced the 6502 chip. If that's so, you wouldn't be able to have both Transwarp and Zip Chip in the same machine.

Then you could do it as soon as you finish your "C" programing class. I hope the rocket chip makes it out. I am wondering what an "E" looks like at 5mz.

Congrats to #222 for keeping up the trend. About the Zip/Rocket: If you put one into a IIe/c with a PC Transporter, would your PC software run faster, since the Transporter has software running on the II system to help interface the two systems? )$Apple II Board H$81 of 100 j%02 )%Moron From Mars (246) H%The Trooper (201) h&0403 )&Re: FESTERING HATE VI H&08/13/88 10:08:02 PM b$David [" `"General Access ]'Apple Rebel Board  )  *  +  ,  -  .  /  0  1  2  3  4  5  6  ) I live and work in Centerville, Ohio, and a local club I attend, Apple-Dayton, composed several articles dealing with computer viruses.

The GS runs at 2.8 (2.5 actually), so if the GS+ is running x6 faster, it will be running at 15 MHz which is only .7 slower then the Mac II which we all know how much that costs. It would not be good business for Apple to release a computer which would compete with its own other system for to low a price. It is for this reason that I remain skeptical about that speed of the GS+. However, I hope that it truely does run 15MHz, cause I personally hate the Mac II. )$Apple II Board H$86 of 100 j%02 )%Evening Star (221) H%All/Everyone h&0155 )&Mac II H&08/15/88 10:50:14 AM b$Christine [" ^"Priviledged User ]'Apple Rebel Board  )  *  +  ,  -  .  /  0  1  2  3  4  5  6  ) By the way, that is just my feeling and I don't want to get into a fight over the Mac II, I am just a single minded Apple II user that is the only reason. )$Apple II Board H$87 of 100 j%02 )%The Psyco (145) H%The High Priest (212) h&0074 )&Re: GS+ in December H&08/15/88 12:17:00 PM b$Bryan [" `"General Access ]'Apple Rebel Board  )  *  +  ,  -  .  /  0  1  2  3  4  5  6  ) check in the aug.
