The GS rather compares to the Amiga.

It was a freaky weirdo, some inbetween machine when Apple didnt want to let go fo the II series and on the other side wanted to go ahead.

The Apple II has the problem of sound... does anyone actually own a mockingboard??

And, some bizarre shifts in the display. You get some pink around sprites and moving objects. When I used an emulator recently I suddenly remembered that crappy display.

The emulator programmer said "its not a bug, its a feature" lol

I must admit, the C128D was born dead as well as the GS though. CBM wanted to make a better machine but were trapped with the success of the C64 and didnt want to let get of that userbase. They wanted to offer a "natural" upgrade.

Have fun,
