One thing I have to say. When people
buy hardware, try to be sure it hasn't
been taken home by someone else and
returned to the store because they
couldn't get it to work. Very often,
they (computers) are put back on the
shelves in an unknown, damaged con-
dition, and then resold. Watch out!

I have noticed that some people
are experiencing over-heating on the
1541. I purchased a fan from COMPU-
COOL for $30. It keeps the unit cool
and you don't have to add feet to your
unit.

I've found that even with a good,
clear monitor or TV, directories just
don't come up too clear on the screen.
Try this--
LOAD "$" ,8 [CONTROL 2] [RETURN]
This changes the cursor to WHITE and
then when you LIST the directory, it
will be a lot easier to read! You can,
of course, use CONTROL 1 through 8, or
COMMODORE 1 through 8, if you want to
play around with all the text color
possibilities.

This is a short program which will
help with programs which read errors
for protection. There are some pro-
grams it will not work on but the only
way to tell is to try it!!
