I found this one by accident one day: press any key when the System starts
booting and it displays a text screen showing the various component names
and version numbers (works for System 6.0.1 anyway). I couldn't believe it
when I first saw it, I had owned my IIgs at least 6 months and had never
accidently done it before!
