[net.micro.cbm] ***fast loader poll***

WARNING:  This has nothing to do with the amiga...

Some time ago I saw a set of articles in this news group about  a
EPROM  based  fast  loader  program.  Replacing the kernal in the
Commodore 64 and the DOS in the 1541 disk drive  with  these  new
EPROMs  were to increase the disk transfer rate by several times.
I believe there was also the addition  of  a  parallel  interface
between the computer and the disk drive.

did anyone keep those articles?  If so, I would appreciate  those
of you who were wise enough to send me a copy.

Also, anyone who want's to put in  their  two  cents  about  what
software  will  or  will not run with this product are welcome to
respond.  If there are enough responses,  I  will  summarize  and
post them on the net.

Actually,  let's  hear  from  anyone  about  any  "fast  loading"
software  product,  be  it disk cartrage or EPROM, that they have
gripes or raves about.
