<< You can't use 1.2MB (high density) 5.25" disks on an Apple II (short of
getting a PC-compatible disk controller and high density 5.25" drive). >>
The Apple ][ compatible Franklin 2200 had internal 5.25" disk drives that had
larger capacity because they wrote extra tracks (about 40 by my memory). Would
this also need Double Density disks, or could it use High Density disks?
