Regarding what to do with "system image" files (such as for sys 6.0.7)
that people download from APPLE.COM (FTP).  The same site APPLE.COM has
an application called "DiskCopy", which you should DL also.
"DiskCopy" reads-in the "system image" files then writes the contents
to floppy disks.  Thus you end up with System Tools, Utilities 1,
Utilities 2 and Printing Tools etc floppies.  Those floppies will be
exactly like what are being shipped from Apple with new Macintoshes,
including system installer and so on.  So use them as such.
