But that's not the OS that shipped with the 128k mac I don't remember what else we got out of the first upgrade (back then, you just walked into a dealer with your system disk and they copied over the new finder & system files), but the Imagewriter actually engaged in sustained bidirectional printing, which the original did not. Anything that can handle a double-sided drive isn't what shipped with the original 128k (but maybe on later ones; weren't they shipped for at least a while when the plus came out?). -- The Hawkins Law Firm Richard E.
