I think I read something supporting this in Mac Secrets, the David Pogue/Joseph Schorr classic.
One of the things discussed in the original manual and the guided tour was the "alternate disk", which was a storage area in the computer's RAM designed for copying files. It was scrapped in the final version, but that was not the reason the OS did not ship.
Evidently the Finder had some major compatibility issues. I don't have the book next to me right now so I'm a bit shaky on those details but I could help you out more tomorrow when I get it out.
Also, on some of the early guided tour disks, circa 1985-1986, there was a precursor to TeachText called "File". Anyone else ever used this little program?
