Ah, Apple...) but you need an actual Apple IIgs in order to legally brandish a ROM image, and the emulator *sucks*. Curation of software is burdened by industry, and I think that's sad. In this case, Apple has kept the software available for owners of the original hardware, and I think that's kind of above the general curve. Still sucks they don't put the ROMs up too, though. The emulator is dog slow even on modern hardware, and I haven't looked at the hell why. Seems like some smart cats could really fix that without too much trouble eventually:)
