- A question. Since all you would want on the 1451 disk would be the
- information that was originally taken from it, why would it need a
- 1581? In other words, why would you require a larger medium to write
- than you used to read? I realize that .d64 files (I suppose) have
- more in them than the contents of a 1541 disk, but wouldn't this
- extraneous data be disregards when tranferring a disk back to the
- 1541?
