Why doesn't PRODOS work with non-apple disk controller cards?

WELL.  You see, apple has been losing money to Franklin, and they
figured that, as long as they were intoducing a new OS, they
might as well make sure it would work on their hardware but
not Franklin's.  You got caught in the middle (pretty much as they intended).
