 |  Re: Please help testing: New loader release imminent
As i learned, 1551 housing is just too britte, and tends to break during transport. Some people even do not ship them any more.
So there will a limited and decreasing number of collectors of 1551 (it was never too famous or widely available, as if I remember, my parents also checked in Vienna more than a dozen Computer shops, and finally gave up and came back with an 1541/II).
If the loader covers 1541, 1541/II, 1571 (in 1541 mode) and falls back to the original 1551 mode if detected (1551 is anyhow ~4x faster), it will cover 80% people speed increase requirement, and the 1551 owners remain as happy as they were. 1581 I do not cover here, I do not have, so I do not care
(what a selfish guy, haha!  )
