- '.image' are disk image files. A disk image is a file version of an entire
- disk and is used to make multiple copies of an original without requiring
- the original.
- Use the Apple program 'DiskCopy'. Version 4.2 about 42KB.

-
- You can find 'DiskCopy' at 'ftp.apple.com' anonymously.
- Directory 'dts/mac?/utils/diskcopy-4-2.hqx' I think.
