- If you have an Apple II+, you don't want the most recent ProDOS (2.0.1).
- 2.0 and later require a 65C02 microprocessor, and Appel reserves the right
- in the future to make them actually require an enhanced IIe (and not just
- the 65C02 as it does today).

- You want ProDOS 8 1.9, which I don't think is on the FTP site. I don't
- know if ProDOS "passed you by" or not, but it has been available in a form
- that always ran on a 64K Apple II+ from 1984 through earlier this year.
