I bought the slot car racing game (whatever it's called) that's published
by Thunder Mountain, and it flat refused to load on my aged 64/1541 combo.
I even did a super-careful alignment of the 1541, using *that* disk as the
alignment diskette, and it still wouldn't load.  Took it back to the store,
and it loaded smoothly on their 128/1571 combination.
