Apple IIgs Owner's Guide

Preface - The Incredible Stretching Machine

The Apple IIgs is a direct descendant of the Apple I the creation of an engineer who hated so

much to leave his computer behind at the end of the workday that he made himself a home

computer.

Steve Wozniak, the engineer, showed the machine to his friend Steve Jobs, and they showed it to

other engineers and computer enthusiasts at the Homebrew Computer Club. It wasn't much to look

at. It didn't have a case or a keyboard or a matching monitor, but no one saw what it wasn't.

They saw what it could be, and they all wanted one.

So Wozniak and Jobs started building computers for their friends. And those friends started

building cases for their naked circuit boards and writing programs that stretched the machine

to its limits. Except that the limits kept expanding.

The first machine was built to grow, and it's still growing. The memory size, for example which

determines how elaborate a program can be and how big a document can be has gone from 4K on the

Apple I to 256K on the Apple IIgs. And when you need more memory, you can stretch that 256K

beyond 8 megabytes.

Despite the considerable difference in memory size and other features, most of the programs

originally designed for the first generation of Apple computers can run on the Apple IIgs. It's

not a coincidence. It's the result of a commitment to compatibility among the computers in the

Apple II family. And it's the reason you have so many programs, printers, and other Apple

products to choose from today.

You'll learn how you can use those programs and products to stretch your machine as you go

through the training disk and the books that came with your Apple IIgs.

Learning By Doing

The best way to get acquainted with the Apple IIgs is to use it that's the purpose of Your Tour

of the Apple IIgs, the interactive training disk that came packed with your Apple IIgs. The

owner's guide expands on the concepts presented on the training disk, but neither the guide nor

the disk can tell you exactly in a step-by-step way how to use your computer to write reports,

do financial planning, or create graphics. The step-by-step instructions come with the programs

you buy for your computer. The fascinating (and initially confusing) thing about computers is

that how they work depends on what you use them for.

If you have any questions that other manuals don't answer, come back to this manual for help.

If you can't find the answer here, your best resource is a more experienced Apple user. If you

don't know such a person, consider joining an Apple user group in your area.

Road Map to the Manuals

Your Apple IIgs came with several books: Setting Up Your Apple IIgs, the Apple IIgs Owner's

Guide, the Apple IIgs System Disk User's Guide, and A Touch of Applesoft BASIC.

If you haven't done so already, read the setup guide to get your computer set up, and then

start reading this book. Not the whole thing just enough so you feel comfortable with your new

machine. What you do after that depends on whether you want to use a program (for writing,

calculating, list making, drawing) or whether you want to write programs yourself.

You can buy programs to accomplish almost any task you can think of (and many you can't), so
