Apple's DOS came on each disk of software you bought, loading into the system so the program could then run. I recall a friend being pissed at the whole idea of ProDOS, as it was this bloated thing you had to run BEFORE you did anything else. You probably could get a new System Disk with a new version of DOS, but I never never did or even knew that was a thing while I had my //c. The disk was for formatting floppies, and that's about it. -- Chris Mack "If we show any weakness, the monsters will get cocky!" 'Invid Fan' - 'Yokai Monsters Along With Ghosts'
