[comp.sys.apple] Need ProDos 8, specs for Franklin Ace

vanharen@fries.mit.edu (Chris VanHaren) (10/27/89)

Hello Apple-ers!

	I recently bought a Franklin Ace 500 (don't laugh, it was REAL
CHEAP), and not having played with a II since high-school, find that I'm
a bit behind the times.  Specifically, ProDos had just been introduced
when I was leaving high school, and I never got a copy of it, since I
didn't have a machine of my own anyway, and I was going off to college.
At any rate, I now have a machine, but I have DOS 3.3, and I've recently
downloaded all these neat programs that all want ProDos.  And *I* want
ProDos.  So, where can I get it?  I know of no user groups around
here...  If someone is willing, I'd pay for shipping and a few disks, if
someone can copy it for me...

	Second question...  anyone have any schematics for this thing
(Franklin Ace 500, that is)?  I'd like to add more memory to it, and it
has what appear to be spaces for more memory chips (sans chip
holders)...
