I had the second version of the final cartridge, and it was a nice
package, a little buggy on the displays here and there, but I liked it -
the only thing I didn't like about it is that when you 'froze'
something, you could only re-load it if you had the cartridge.  I
understand version 3 has fixed this, but I'm not sure. [which is a pain,
because I have a couple of 'frozen' things, but I let a friend borrow
the cartridge, and he moved... :( ]                                            
I currently use the Fastload cartridge, and I really like the sector
editor on it.  It's really easy to use, and is generally a good utility
cartridge.  I've gotten so that I can read directories in the sector editor.
