My CMD drive is taking about 28 seconds to load Wizard of Wor (66 blocks).
On the 1541 it takes about 45 seconds.  Not a massive improvement.  I am
using a C128, in C64 mode (in order to play C64 games).  Is there anything
I can do to improve load time?

Would the RAMlink get this down to <1 sec in C64 mode?  BFN.
