- Well, you needn't be afraid -- for two reasons. The first is that the
- LCII ships with System 7.0.1 & Tuner already installed (at least, mine was)
- -- so you don't have to go digging for it. The second reason is that yes,
- it will run with 6.07. or 6.0.8 -- although I personally recommend 6.0.8.
- Also, do *not* try to use 6.0.5, because the machine won't take it (it's
- that ROM thing you were talking about). So buy the computer (go for the
- 4/80+512 model).
