Well, I have just about everything but a 1040, but yeah.  The problem is
with game images that have to be written in that format.  For regular
files, the sneaker netting works just fine.  For games written as regular
files, ditto.  But for some of the games that need to be in the specific
800k format, it's only slightly less easy.
