Hello,
It seems to be impossible to find an original DOS 3 (without .0 or .1)
as the first version before DOS 3.1 was released. Is it true that Steve
Worniak (Woz) wrote DOS 3 into the cassette tape? After loading DOS 3 and
RWTS routine from the cassette tape, RWTS routine was done to write to the
floppy disk. Then floppy disk becomes DOS 3 Master and no longer depend on
the cassette tape.
What do you think?
