- Review of FASTLOAD by: EPIX
- Review by: Roger Ingersoll (72416,3223)

- Upon receiving FASTLOAD I was currious about how well it worked. Here is a
- short rundown of a few test. VIDTEX loaded in only 11 sec compared to 47
- sec without FASTLOAD. The PRINTSHOP loaded in 33 sec compared to 1 min 11
- sec. And DOODLE loaded in a super fast 24 sec. The only program I found no
- increase in speed was with SUPERBASE 64.With FASTLOAD it loaded in the same
- amount of time.
- Useing FASTLOAD couldn't be easyer. Just plug in the cartridge and thats
- it. It has a built in wedge with the normal commands $ / _ % @ >. Plus a
- Disk tool accessed by typing "\" and return. It features a file copyer,
- Disk copy, A track editer, and a seperate program file utillity that
- will even protect a program from being scratched accidentally. It also has
- a built in assembly monitor.
- If for some reason you dont want to use the FASTLOAD modification, Just
- unplug the cartridge. I found only one program so far that would not work at
- all with FAST@LOAD and that was the new wedge by Jim Klitzing available in the
- DL's here.
