If you do get your hands on a couple of functioning IIGSs (with monitors),
I'm first in line to try and get one off of you. There are some neat things
you can do with IIGSs and add on cards, plus there is a UNIX port for IIGSs
that I'd love to try.

Jon,

If I had to guess, I'd say IIgs.  It is also not
clear from your message whether the stuff labeled
in this way has anything to do with the 2 PC's. One
is very likely to find Apple II-era stuff hanging
around in school storage closets.  A few years ago
I visited my old high school Calc teacher (who ran
the computer club and still uses her II) and ended
up with a full set of Apple II manuals and disks
still in the shrink wrap from the closet of a lab
that had been full of PC's for 8 years.  She was
amazed that I wanted them.

Whatever it is, I hope you find it interesting.
