Okay, I really need to pull out my compilers.  The Byron Freeware
Company would absolutely flatten the Apple II market.  It may even
help me earn some of my dignity back after paying $200 US for
Opus ][. ;)

Actually, it isn't even a programming problem.  You could simply
copy the contents of a floppy to the hard drive then copy the
contents of the hard drive to another problem.  The only thing a
piece of software would do is reduce the two step problem into a
one step problem *if* the person already has dual floppy drives.

While I agree that my tone has been much stronger on the negative
side, I have also reiterated several times that it depends upon
the persons's needs.  Certain people on the other side of the fence
have been saying "buy, Buy, BUY!" without even considering what is
going to be done with this computer.
