Hi, a couple questions for those using JiffyDOS (past or present):

1. What are some of the things you like most about it?

2. What are some of the things you dislike about it?

3. Are there any features you wish it included or did better?

Thanks!

Thanks for the answers.

Yes, that's the problem. But what it if there was another choice? Remember there was more than one fast load cartridge for sale in the heydays. Why not a competitor to JiffyDOS? At least it'd have a leg up -- being available.

It isn't really a problem. Everybody just burns their own JD. That's what I do. :)
