I would like to introduce you to Bryce Nesbit, creator of
1541 Flash! . Take it away Bryce...
Believe it or not, there is a human behind the design of some products
(or at lest I THINK I am human) For those who are not familiar with my product
here is a quick rundown:
1> It speeds up loading, saving, formating, editing, validating,
scratching, initialization and all other disk related functions by various
ammounts. The amount we claim (and deliver) is %300. Other companies make
wild claims, we have a product to support ours.
2> Works WITH other speedup products like Quickload which (by the way)
works faster with 1541 Flash!
3> It adds a DOS wedge on the computer ROM chip.
4> It removes bugs in both the drive and computer O.S. including the
"famous commodore editor bug" the bug that cleared the color RAM to the
background color the bug that overwrote the kernal RAM, one of two bugs in the
parity checking of the RS-232 port, and more.
5> Because the loading is much faster the drive and stepper motors are
turned on for less time. Thus our customers report less overheating and
reliability problems with 1541 Flash! installed.
6> It adds a bunch of much needed editor commands such as homing the
cursor to the bottom of the screen, faster scrolling, delete line etc.
7> It is compatible with protected software such as Di-Sector,
VIP Terminal, Electronic Arts software, Broderbund Software.
8> If you ever WANT to go back to the SLOW mode you can at the flick
of a switch.
9> We don't leave you out in the cold. Customer support includes a
4-Month warranty, money back gurantee if you don't like it, customer support
telephone number staffed weekdays, and a address to send technical questions.
