There's no file specifically called LEGACY on the floppy. But after looking
at the floppy, I'm wondering if I'm not having the same problem with it that
I'm having with the cd-rom.
The CD-Rom has a windows '95 file system on it. Looks the same with the
floppy, since it has long filenames on it.
I wonder if anyone from SUPRA/Diamond has ever tried to use these disks on a
DOS 6.x computer?
Hmmm... Tuesday, if I remember correctly, they have a chat session opened all
