Some clarification on an earlier message.  The ONLY disk Apple
is currently shipping with the GS is a Guided Tour (Pascal based).
They ARE NOT shipping early versions of ProDOS 8 or ProDOS 16.
I got those from a dealer demo disk which most dealers will
not normally let a customer work with.  The Guided Tour is
not worth a whole lot since it is Pascal based and totally
isolates the user from any command level work - monitor or
Applesoft prompt.  Any software currently being run on the
GS by most folks will be the version that came with their
//e or //c application.  What I got from the demo disk was
ProDOS 16 V1.0 Alpha 15 dated 15 SEP and ProDOS 8 V1.2
Beta 3 dated 7 SEP.  The launcher that came with ProDOS 16
is version 1.0 and is simply a list of file and folder names -
unlike Mouse Desk.
