Title: JiffyDOS coming for Commodore 16 / Plus-4 owners
Post by: redrumloa on January 31, 2006, 06:09:25 PM

Good to see new products coming hot and heavy for the old Commodores:-)

C.S.C thread here! (http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.cbm/browse_frm/thread/dd28a9eec402766f/f58c31b1bd3fed0a?lnk=raot#f58c31b1bd3fed0a)

I just bought JiffyDOS for the 128D and I may have to get it for the Vic20 :-)

-Edit-
Darn, this really is newsworthy! Thinking I should have made a news item..

Eh..

Might have to get my old Plus/4 out of the loft.

First computer I ever owned.  I adored it. :-)

Do it! Do some programming to see what you can do with that TED chip :-)

Can you explain what a JiffyDOS is?

It's a huge DOS enhancement and drive speeeder for the C= 8bit computers.

HERE (http://www.cmdrkey.com/cbm/prodinfo/jiffydos.html) is the official page, which describes it better than I can.
