Central Point Software started their life making Apple II software. While Copy II Plus was able to do certain copy protected discs it was faster and easier than Apple's disc copier. "COPYA", I believe was the Applesoft version, and "COPYI" if you only had integer basic. ??? The ulitmate was a utility called Disk Muncher. Could do a 2-drive duplicate in 38 seconds. Talk about lack of error detection... I always favored Beagle Bros products myself. Still have my "Apple Colors/ASCII Values" posted behind me (dated 6/84), and above it is their "6502 Instructions" where I've penned in interesting 65C02 enhancements. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
