    I've had similar problems with Epyx's Fastload cartridge.  It seems like
it occasionally grabs output directed to the screen (program listings, error
messages, etc.) and writes it to track 18.  Serious problem there.  Also, the
built-in monitor seems to get lost at times when single-stepping through a
program.  I still use the cartridge, but it sure would be nice if you didn't
have to double-check everything you did with it.  At least it provides a built-
in disk editor (which does work) so you can fix what it munges.
