Thanks for your time in checking the CD sputnik very nice of you. I did have a look at those I think when I was searching for 7.0.1 and like you could not see the 800k versions. I am not really sure what advantage there is over 7.0 apart from a few bug fixes and other small improvements. I'm the kind of person that likes to have the best available even if I'm not ally sure what the differences are LOL.
I hear different things from different people, some say that 7.0.1 was available on 800k disks, other say it wasn't, but from what I read a lot of sites seem to say that 7.0.1 or 6.0.8 is best for the Mac Plus.
By the way, can I ask what CD has the net install on it? might be worth checking that out if there is a make floppy option.
