Hello Cruel World,

After my URL Manager collection went belly up with little notice I decided to do it again and got my hands on a (hopefully) complete listing of all vintage Apple ROMs. Their checksums, tech background, compatibility info and smart aleck remarks included.

As I ended up with a hopelessly jumbled text file, I imported it into MS-Excel for 68k, formatted the damn' thing and added some optics (borders, shading, etc.) to make it more visually appealing.

Next step will be to convert it to PDF, Apple Works and some other vintage compatible formats and ... should anyone care for it I am ready to upload it somewhere ... and post the link here.

Oooh, don't forget a DOCmaker or it's cousin's self-opening documents that don't need a helper program to open!

I've used 'Can Opener' in the past to salvage corrupted files with some success.. again, this is why I want to get a version of Goliath 68k-runnable to make small mac image or bin backups to cloud storage right from my virtual Mac (I've just setup my service's Linux sync using their AppImage so I should be okay, but it'd be nice to have something right from our Mac too!) :)

If it's a list of Macintosh ROMs, then the Mac ROM's page at the MG would be a good place for it.
