And btw, another question: I see what looks like a SCSI card inside the IIgs. Assuming it's true, could I boot from a SCSI drive? Like could I format one of my old drives in ProDOS and simply hook it to the IIgs?

If it is a SCSI card, you are one lucky guy! Yes, you can attach a hard drive or other SCSI device and start from it.

Also: beware of old cleaning diskettes. If there's something not-so-nice on the surface (after all these years) you have a good chance of permanently destroying the drive head. Proceed with caution, or use a never-before-opened cleaning disk if you can.
