That did seem a rather odd statement. I have my old originals of ADOS and
ADOS3 purchased directly from Art many, many years ago. I was an early fan,
and used ADOS extensively for years. Maybe the master in question was some
kind of special disk, not like the ones that Art shipped out.

It was never "almost lost."
I sent an error free disk image of ADOS 3 to the Archive last year or
earlier.
If the earlier ADOS is needed, I have an error-free master disk of that as
well.

You can use the 64k of RAM to run a really cool alternate disk BASIC like
ADOS too, right Art? :) The software is available at
http://www.colorcomputerarchive.com/coco/Disks/Operating%20Systems/ADOS%20(SpectroSystems).zip
It is an excellent alternative to disk basic written by a fantastic
programer. ;-) It was almost lost, but Art, who is the original author, sent
me one of the last disks with a working copy, which I was fortunately able
to read with error and create a disk image to save this software for
prosperity. It has many enhancements over standard disk basic. It works with
a real disk controller or the CoCo SDC. Actually, if you have a CoCo SDC,
you can load ADOS into one of the flash slots and load it that way.
