Why not run ProDOS on the II Plus?  Seems to me like some of the earlier
versions (1.1?) will run on a II Plus, but I don't remember for sure.  Seems
like you can only run System files though, and can't use BASIC.System or
something, due to the memory restrictions, and there was a special technique
for loading it or something..  it's been years, my memory is foggy.
