The four included original Impulse-labeled disks are:
Imagine INT
Integer version of the Imagine program, intended for systems using integer processing rather than the separate floating-point build.
Imagine FP
Floating-point version of the Imagine program for appropriately equipped Amiga systems.
Imagine Objects
Original supplementary disk labeledImagine Objects.
Imagine Demo
Original supplementary disk labeledImagine Demo.
Testing
All four floppy disks have been individually tested and work.
Testing confirmed that each disk is readable on compatible Commodore Amiga hardware.
Because these are vintage magnetic disks, the buyer may wish to create archival backup images after purchase.
