   Several of us "old guys" that play around with Apple-computersystems 
				have some shelves with plenty spare stuff - so this probably 
				might 
   be a task that you might want to execute.... 
   Apple offered in the beginning time of the introduction of the IIGS 
				the possibility to upgrade the //e to a IIGS with an 
				Upgrade-Kit. In fact you 
   donīt really need a kit to do this, because every IIGS-mainboard 
				with the ROM 0 or ROM 1 can be used for this. All these 
				Mainboards have 
   the area labelled with "Keyboard" and if you take a closer look to 
				tha Powerplugarea you will recognize that also a sparearea is 
				reserved 
   to be populated with a powerconnector as it was used with the old 
				apple powersupplies. 
   You might chose to populate that plug or alter a powersource with a 
				straigt plug to fit on the normal connectionpins. I altered the 
				plug at  
   the powersource. In the following pictures below the project is 
				documented step by step.
