I have already bought an Action Replay v5.0, and I'm not satisfied with it.
I'm not going to return it though, because of shipping, and restocking
fees. I've already decided to sell it.  However, I AM going to buy another
either Fastload cartridge (not EPYX) or else JiffyDOS

I'm considering either the Super Snapshot V5 or JiffyDOS V6.
Can anyone recommend JiffyDOS for me? I've already had a report on the
SSv5.  

I'm considering the JiffyDOS because I've read someones post here
yesterday, and they seemed to think it was great.  He said it was
totally compatible, except for two programs that he found... I think it was
the Fuzzy Fox dude... :-)
Well, compatibility, I've been using the Action Replay for a while, and
I've had many times to use the Normal Reset (which doesn't use the
cartridge at all for anything) because many of my programs do not work with
it. Only about 5 have... So, which is more compatible? SSv5 or JiffyDOS? 
I'm leaning towards JiffyDOS.  I've read the ad in RUN magazine, and it
seems to have only a few features. Or are these just the ADDED features?
from the older versions, I mean...
If so, can someone tell me what some of the more important features of
JiffyDOS are?  
And what's the difference between JiffyDOS for 64 and 128?  Is the 128
version of JiffyDOS for the C128 or C128D in 128 mode AND 64 mode or only
128 mode? (gotta cover all the stops!)  If so, I'll order the JiffyDOS 128
version for $60...
