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.
