You do need 64K for everything above 1.0 (or maybe 1.1 ?) as far as I know, so you must have a language card in your Apple II+. The problem with version 2.0 and above is not memory but the fact that it needs a 65C02 processor, so it requires at least an enhanced IIe, or a II+ with the processor chip swapped for a 65C02.
Also somewhere between 1.1 and 1.9 (I do not have any versions in between) they started requiring a IIe 80 column mode for the system utilities.
If anybody has a version of ProDOS later than the original 1984(?) release but earlier than 1.9 it would be very nice of you to upload it to asimov or another archive site as I would like to know which version was the last to completely work on a 64K II+, system utilities included.
