Luce) Organization: Alcatel Network Systems, Raleigh NC Lines: 15 I have been a user of JiffyDOS for a few years. Started with a C64/1541 and then a C128/1571/1581/1750. I even upgraded to 6.01 from 5.05. In total, I *LOVE* it. The only problem I *EVER* had was in loading DesTerm 1.0 and it was easy to get around by using DLOAD in the place of a wedge command. I speak highly of it. I have used a fastloader or three :-) but JiffyDOS blows their doors off, not just speed, but what you get in functionality. And what you get for the C128 is the JiffyDOS for both the C128 side of the machine and the C64 side. You also get 1 disk drive ROM (your choice) with the package. For $69, you cannot beat it. You can buy extra drive ROMs for $29 each (I think that's the price). I'm not affiliated with CMD, just a very satisfied customer.
