So many of you have asked about the IIgs over the years that I thought this would be a great time to cover it in depth. This was (and still is) a special computer for me so it was fun to share it. Unfortunately its power supply paid the ultimate price for delivering this video to you. But the good news is that I don't think any of the internal components were damaged.
