   If anyone is interested to read, I did some more experimentation with the   
   Apple Squeezer. In my haste before my last post, I hadn't downloaded the   
   control panel app nor the update to Core 4. I got through that bit (via   
   Ciderpress) and followed the very    
   useful readme included in the download from the creator's website.   
      
   I discovered that adjusting acceleration and additional memory of the Squeezer   
   needs to be accomplished with a IIgs image and the new control panel app once   
   installed. Sorry, I always get confused with the terms CDA, NDA, CDEV, etc...   
   so I will refrain    
   from using them.   
      
   I updated the Squeezer, and in the IIgs image (I used the 6.0.4 from What is   
   the Apple IIgs) I disabled Acceleration, Ignore System Memory, and the final   
   choice Add 13mb RAM. Did a power-off reboot, and the 6.0.4 booted just fine.   
   Incredibly slowly,    
   hahah! But from within 6.0.4 I was able to launch 8-bit AppleWorks 5 and use   
   it without issue. This worked in both Normal and Accelerated from the   
   OA-Ctrl-Esc menu.   
      
   I then tried using the Control Panel app to add in the other selections.   
   Appleworks 8-bit still works fine with Accelerated and the 13mb added, but not   
   with the Ignore System Memory option. One caveat, however, is that I had to   
   reboot after closing AW5.   
      
   I went back to my original curiosity, the IIe image. Now, with the Squeezer   
   having the Ignore System Memory turned off via the IIgs Control panel app   
   prior, the IIe image works perfectly. Boot up a very vast IIe A2 Desktop,   
   launch AW5, close it, return    
   to A2 Desktop, do other stuff, etc... I don't know why, but turning off the   
   Ignore System Memory option makes a big difference in my particular case. Just   
   for clarity, my IIgs has a GGLabs 4mb card installed.   
      
   Since I was switching things around so much, I was curious to see if the   
   Squeezer runs particularly hot. I'd have to say no. I didn't bother with a   
   laser thermometer or anything, I just used my hand. The Squeezer gets warm,   
   but not so much that I'd have    
   to start thinking about adding fans or anything.   
      
   All in all, I am very happy with the Apple Squeezer. It works quite well. I   
   have found that all accelerators for IIe and IIgs are quirky. Learning the   
   quirks is quite fun, and when you find the sweet spot of functionality for   
   these nearly 40-year-old    
   machines... well that's the magic. I just read the daily news on my Squeezer   
   IIgs by visiting 68k.news. Wow!   
      
   Thanks for reading!
