Sebastien, I think that is a PowerBook. Nice machine, no?

Welcome to the club. I personally use both PC's and Macs, although
I had a similar enlightening experience on my first Macintosh 2 years ago.

You got the name right. It is diskcopy, and I think it is available
at sumex in the /info-mac/util directory. Well, it is an Apple product,
so it may be in the /dts directory of ftp.apple.com.

Oh, sumex:= sumex-aim.stanford.edu [36.44.0.6]. ftp over.
