I believe the only Copy II Plus version that does 1.44
ProDOS disks has to be version 8 or higher. I know that
none of the version 7's would, and the only next higher
one I have is version 9. I don't know if you can do MS-DOS
1.44 disks with it, I never tried to run MS-DOS Utilities on
a IIe, and I only have superdrives on my GS now. Peter, if you
are around, can you answer this for us?
