This is a thread purely of questions. If these are actually super obvious and I'm just missing something, feel free to disregard my post.
What changed between the 64K ROM and the 128K (Plus/512Ke) ROM? The things I know of, beyond bug fixes, are HFS, the SCSI Manager, the 800K disk driver, and the List Manager. Supposedly Apple integrated some components of the System file, but how much? Could a computer run from just a compatible Finder file on a disk (no System file present)?
Finally, who at Apple did the development on the ROM itself? I thought most of the original Mac team had left by the time work would have started on the 128K ROM.
