Hi All, just got an Apple IIgs, one of my first computers back in 87. I would like
to connect it to my PowerBook 1400c to transfer files which I can down load to
the 1400 from the net or from PCMCIA SD. I have a null modem cable that I
can connect to both computers, but how do I get them to talk to each other?
Any Help would be much appreciated, Thanks

If the IIgs is running GS/OS, you can setup an AppleTalk network between the two with just a serial cable. Otherwise you need terminal software to communicate between the two.

Hello 68000,
Yes, I will be running GS/OS as soon as my drive arrives, have the floppies
but my 3.5 drive turned out to be Mac only.
Thanks so much!
