- Have you seen the "C64 Sensations" CD-rom [from Epic I believe] advertised
- in various British Amiga magazines? {claims 1,000's of demos etc along with
- other programs and emulation programs for several systems} How Kosher is
- that one? [and how many of the demos will run on a NTSC C=128 system? Or
- would I have to use their squirrel comp and an emulator to run the demos
- in PAL mode?]

- Side Question: when CMD does repairs on C=128D's, one can get JiffyDos
- installed, but can one get those C=128D Mods done as well at your shop?
- Id est, drive unit number switches to make the internal 1571CR 8/9/10/11/12..,
- drive disable/cutoff switches etc.?
- Vale! Sylvia Carruthers
