Folks,

	My wife has just "inherited" an Apple II+ with one drive and a
parallel printer card; no other card slots are occupied.  A few
questions immediately arose:

	We've found that none of the binary programs that she uses on
her IIE will run.  They don't even start up correctly. When we invoke
one of them, it doesn't even begin to execute.	Can anyone give me some
clues as to the cause?  She'd like to obtain software that she also uses
on the IIE; this is a classroom operation.  Some of her commercial
programs assert that  they'll run on any II-class machine, but we cannnot
make these run either; nor will any of the public domain binaries from
Big Red run on the II+.

	I've noticed that the catalogs sell II+ ROM sets.  Was there an
"upgrade" somewhere along the way?

	Can Prodos be made to run on a II+?

	What modifications are required to get lower case operation?

	Thanks, all.
