I have started the work of comparing disk images and files. For the first
round of comparisons I have chosen to compare like disks. From there it
will be easier to determine how much duplication really exists. Below is
what I have compared so far. The rest will follow soon.

First Comparison, Like Disks
============================
I decided to break this up into pieces, and do each piece one-at-a-time. The
first piece is according to similarity between disks. The disks compared are
listed below, with brief comparison notes. This method shows the number of
replicated disks there are. By cutting the number of replications down, we
can
then compare to what's left to see how much other duplication there is.
================================================================================
CMODEMOR.DSK - CModem Original: 29 files | Both disks contains
many same filenames with
CMODEMUP.DSK - CModem Update/Upgrade: 34 files | different sizes, and
some different files.
