I'm posting for a friend without access to the net.  If I don't make
sense its cause I'm an IBM PC user, not an Apple user.  My friend is
also not too experienced with the PC yet, so this may be a pilot error.

First -- We need help bringing up an Apple Speedscript software.  I'd like to
	hear from anyone having the same problems or a tip as to what is wrong.
	
	The label on the disk reads:
		Apple Speedscript
		Charles Brannon & Kevin Martin

		ProDOS this side:  Copy PRODOS to this side and boot disk

		DOS 3.3 other side:  Boot 3.3 disk, insert this disk and
		enter RUN HELLO and press RETURN

		Copyright COMPUTE Publications, Inc. 1985.

	Trying to follow the directions for the first side, she gets
	"Unable to load ProDOS"

	On the second side she gets "Press any key to continue"; when she
	does, nothing happens.

	I'm taking my friend's word on this;  I haven't seen it myself.
	I am experienced with IBM PCs, so if responses are technical, fine.

Second -- Is this Apple Speedscript software OK stuff?  I get suspicious
	of of software that doesn't provide good enough directions for a
	novice to get it up & running.  Is this a good package for casual
	users, or is there something more appropriate?
