HAVE A DISHWASHER. DISHWASHERS MAKE.YOU
LAZY! IT'S EASY TO WASH DISHES."..
MY WIFE AND I WERE USED TO THIS.TYPE OF

THE MAIN PEOPLE.I'VE SEEN ADVOCATING WA
SHING DISHES.BY HAND ARE THOSE WHO ALREA

OCK YOU PASS ON.THE WAY TO SCHOOL OR WOR
K. THIS IS.HOW YOUR 1541 WASTES TIME AN
D ENERGY.WITHOUT A FAST LOADER. IT SIMP
LY.READS MORE THAN IT HAS TO... OF CO
URSE SOME PEOPLE SHOULDN'T.USE THESE CAR
TRIDGES, MAINLY BECAUSE.THEY USE A DISK
DRIVE THAT'S NOT.COMPLETELY 1541 COMPATI
BLE. WARP.SPEED AND SUPER SNAPSHOT WON'
T CRASH.AN MSD BUT THEY ALSO WON'T FAST
LOAD.ON THEM! USING THE EPYX CARD WITH
AN.MSD MIGHT CAUSE ERRORS ON YOUR DISK..
. I SAY ALL THIS BECAUSE I'M A.RECOVE
RING MACHO COMPUTERIST. I WANT.TO SHARE
THIS INFORMATION WITH ANY.COMMODORE USE
RS OUT THERE WHO MAY BE.WASTING TIME AWA
Y FROM THEIR FAMILIES.WHILE THEIR CARTRI
DGE SITS IN A.DRAWER COLLECTING DUST....
. THAT'S RIGHT. I USED TO BE A.MACHO
COMPUTERIST. I ONCE SNUBBED.THE NEW-FA
NGLED 1541 DRIVE, WAITING.A FORTNIGHT FO
R A FILE TO LOAD ON MY.LESS-THAN-TRUSTY
TAPE DRIVE. I EVEN.SNUBBED THE NEW-FANG
LED AUTO-FOCUS.35MM SLRS. "WHO NEEDS TH
EM?" I.SCOFFED. THEN I USED MY BOSS'.AU
TO-FOCUS DURING AN WEDDING AND SAW.THE L
IGHT. NOW I OWN ONE... I'LL NEVER FO
RGET THE DAY I FIRST.LOADED MY WORD PROC
ESSOR FROM A DISK..THE SPEED INCREASE OF
A 1541 OVER A.TAPE DRIVE IS ALMOST AS D
RAMATIC AS.TODAY'S CARTRIDGES ARE ABOVE
A NAKED.1541.... NOW FILES THAT ONCE
TOOK 15.MINUTES TO LOAD, LOAD IN LESS TH
AN 10.SECONDS ON A DRIVE WITH A CARTRIDG
E..ALL IT TOOK WAS A STEP UP TO THE SLOW
.SPEED OF A NAKED 1541 FOR ME TO SEE.THE
ERROR OF MY WAYS. SOON AFTER I.GOT MY
HANDS ON A FAST LOADER AND NOW.RARELY SA
VE OR LOAD WITHOUT ONE..I'VE SAVED AND L
OADED BILLIONS OF.FILES WITH CARTRIDGES
ENGAGED. I CAN.ONLY THINK OF ABOUT SIX
BONA FIDE DISK.ERRORS IN THE FOUR YEARS
I'VE BEEN.COMPUTING........ IF YOU'RE
A MACHO COMPUTERIST,.HERE'S MY PRESCRIP
TION:.. 1. BUY SUPER SNAPSHOT, WARP.
SPEED OR JIFFYDOS.. 2. FIND OU
T WHICH PROGRAMS DON'T. WORK WITH
THEM.. 3. DON'T USE YOUR CARTRIDGE W
ITH. THOSE PROGRAMS!.. IT'S AS
SIMPLE AS THAT! LOADSTAR.IS NOW ALMOST
100% COMPATIBLE WITH.FAST LOADERS -- WE
