first off, there are two  versions of ProDOS that I know about, Versions 1.0.1
and 1.1.1.  They are slightly different.  ProDOS can be used on any Apple with
at least 64K.  It is the same on any machine, so there is no //e or //c version.

The only problem with using ProDOS on a Franklin is that it checks to see if
you are on an Apple machine. If not, it bombs out in the boot process.  All
you have to do is find out where it does it with a sector editor and remove
the jump to the check routine.  Exactly how to do it is in the Febuary issue
of Nibble magazine.  If you can't find it, let me know.  If more people are 
interested, I'll post the complete details.

very truly yours,
