OOPS! a Typo!! I meant a "Trackstore" .app file..
The Diamond Trackstar is a "Apple II on a board" that fits in an early XT or
AT style PC.. I hear they work on a 486 but never tried. Mine is on a 386.
The Trackstar stores Apple Disks in a emulated disk file specific to this
device. The files have a .app extension.
Charlie: Don't worry about these. There are maybe 5 of us in the world who
still use this gadget ;)
If you are curious I could email you a standard ProDOS disk in app format.
Though this does bring to mind yet ANOTHER format: The old Central Point
Options Card Disk image format. I have this card and have read of this, but
have never tried it....humm what do I have scheduled tonite?...
