I was wondering how legal it is to aquire a backup of the OEM cd that came
with the 840av (which I do not have since it is second hand). The OS was 7.1
pro (I think) which I don't think is available from Apples website (they
skipped over it). I believe the CD that shipped was specific for the 660av
and 840av, which is what I want to test out.

I have a CD Install Me First CD for the Macintosh Quadra 660av and 840av. It is version 1.2, copyright 1993 and part # 691-0207. It installs System 7.1, System Update 2.0.1, Quicktime 1.6.1, AppleScript 1.0.1 and Apple Phone. There are a few third party items includes as well. Experfax, Fusion Recorder, and a Demo of Quickkeys.


The CD says it has 156 MB with 11 MB free, but the preference folder in the booting system folder on the CD says it contains 91 MB, and in reality it contains nothing. So one is left with somewhere around 40 MB of software on the CD.

The AV items that are included on the CD can be downloaded from or are linked to from the AV FAQ
<http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/~jwang/cgi/av-faq>. Gamba's site <http://home.earthlink.net/~gamba2/index.html> will start a journey that will lead to all the components that make up System 7.1 Pro.
