Re: Apple IIplus ROMs in original II?

["Vince Briel" <vbriel@comcast.net>]

Hey Paul, you wouldn't know offhand which ROM is INTBASIC would ya? I would 
assume it would be the same ROM for Applesoft. I can look it up but I have 
to find my reference manual and right now I'm on another project so my brain 
has dumped all addressing info on the II series at the moment :)

Well, Rich must have fixed the issue because my II starts to load prodos 
until it can't find Applesoft. I think I'm running 1.01 (I'll have to 
check). I just wanted to pop my V1.4 CFFA into the II and check 
compatability. We weren't able to get the original II to work with the CFFA 
with prior versions of the firmware. I think after this test I'm going to 
shrink wrap seal my II because they seem to being going way up in value.
