Hey! I'm posting this message using SNAP!!

WOW. All I can say first: loading the newsgroup list is *not* fun.
Loooong wait for 2 MB to download into the IIgs. @_@

What are the specs?

Well, this is a rather "bare bones" IIgs:

- ROM 03
- 2.8 MHz
- Apple 1 MB expansion for 2 MB total RAM
- Uthernet card provides a 10 mbps Ethernet interface
- FocusDrive with CF adapter for 128 MB of storage

And of course, Marinetti 3.0

I'm not sure how often I will use this GS to read news, but at least I can
say that I've done it-- and posted!

Anyone else?
