      Rancy,

      I received your letter in yesterday's post and decided that the
      most direct way to answer you is like this, as I am sure that you
      are anxious to get up and operating.

      The disk enclosed contains all of the standard CP/M system disk
      utilities plus some others that I have found useful over the
      years.  You will note that I have covered the write protect notch
      on this disk.  I strongly suggest that you leave it there and that
      you take as your first task making work copies of this disk and
      any others that you have only a single copy of.  You can use the
      program COPY.COM to do that - it is pretty much self explanatory.
      You will notice that COPY.COM contains the ability to SYSGEN the
      operating system onto the system tracks.

      I wish you many interesting hours with your Kaypro - they are a
      nice machine.  If there is anything that I can do later to be of
      assistance, please contact me, I'll certainly try.

      If you would care to make a donation of about $3 to defray costs
      of media, mailer, and postage, it will be much appreciated as this
      is an unfunded effort of the Computer Society.

      Happy computing,



      Don Maslin
