I have just recently bought Super Snapshot v4, and after using the Epyx
fastload for 2 or 3 years, I can safely say that the Super Snapshot loads
much faster than the fastload. It will even save faster, something which the
fastload didn't do. I don't know what SS version you had, but the latest
version (v4) is one of the best commodore utilities I have seen.
