  • OMFG I remember the startup sounds for this computer, it was faster than the apple IIe's can the monitor of the IIGS be used for a game system like a PS2

  • its a standard tube really so the answer is yes, if my entertainment center wasnt so complicated, id hook it up and film it...

  • Great video for the Apple IIgs! This computer seems to be so noisy, if I had one I'd have to find a way to silence the noise! Now, if there's no external hard drive for the GS/OS, what is that thing on the very right that's part of the computer? How did you touch the light to turn it on? It looks like a hard drive to me. Do you have anything for the Apple IIgs that can use 3 1/2-inch floppy disks?

    Anyways, I like this computer. Thanks for posting this!

  • noisy?: well the camera was cheap but it is a lil noisy. on right?: thats the cooling unit/power controller, you can plug up to 4 things into it and 2 plugs are controlled by one switch, 2 by the other. some old Apples turned on with power, whereas new macs have power all the time and you start by pressing the startup key. 3" disks?: I do have the old 400k drives but I havent tried them yet...

    glad you enjoyed it! As i get time ill be posting more of my 33+ Apple collection!

  • Hey, the System Saver on the right is supposed to go between the monitor and the CPU!

  • i know! lol but its never on that long and I had space constraints. :( someday when I open a DC Apple museum......

  • if you have it, try runing Zany Golf on here... now i've never Owned a IIGS, but i've played one, running zany golf, maybe late 90s, but god it was awesome, IMO one of the best mini golf games..., looking back at it now, really took advantage of the iigs

  • that thing is SO noisy!! but pretty cool.better that a PC

  • Wow an APPLE product that can play games besides chess and Photoshop. ;-)

  • This is the oldest computer that you can use to get on the Internet.

  • @GamerMaster2041

    Originals, probably, but there are websites selling Apple I kits. They even use a lot of the same components.

  • Holy crap...the "power on" noises are SO effing nostalgic

  • Is it safe to use to use floppy drives like that ? (have a Amiga 500 with extra drives:P)

  • the beginning sounds like a gun going off. BOOM!

  • Damn... When will we have this boot speed in modern systems??

  • I wish i can see apple 1 boot up.

    MAN THERES ONLY 30 OR 50 APPLE 1 COMPUTERS IN THE WORLD

    not mentioning that it was first
