How do you change the default font used by GS/OS? I did a Google, but
didn't turn up anything.

I just received a video converter that I ordered from ebay. Rather
than post a link, which will expire, here is the description and
seller info:
RGBS/CGA/EGA/YUV TO VGA converter 1 output arcade game
chowhe_taiwan
$32.00 + 5.95 S+H
No documentation comes with the board. You get some cables for the
power header and the 8-pin header that you can wire how you want. The
pinouts of these headers are silkscreened on the board.
The reason I took a chance on this board is twofold. It is 1/3 the
price of the next cheapest scan doubler I could find, and some folks
on the Amiga forums have used this board with analog RGB outputs.
I didn't have to wire up a cable, as I had a cable with a DB-15 on one
end and a VGA plug on the other. I think it was made for use with a
Mac and a VGA monitor. I connected this cable to the VGA-style input
of the board (not for VGA input, although the connector is the same)
and a VGA LCD on the output connector. The board is powered from 5-12
VDC. I used a 12 V, 1 A switching adapter that I had on hand.

Right. That would tend to rule out any differences in broadcast
traffic from the netatalk box...

I know that you need a special interface card to support a 1.44 MB
floppy drive on a IIe. Assuming I had a compatible drive, does the
IIgs Smartport support HD drives?
In other words, can I take a HD drive from a vintage Mac and use it on
the IIgs? Can I format, read and write HD floppys with it? If so, is
it possible to read/write MSDOS disks?

In a nutshell, could someone tell me the differences between a
Transwarp GS and a Zip GSX. Which do you consider the better card and
why?

I have a IIc in my office that I would like to have running most of
the time as a bit of a conversation piece, it is a bit boring with the
screen turned off. What would be a good running demo that would also
double as a screensaver so I can leave it on all the time?
