The multi disc games work on the registered c64s, just change images on 
the fly, same could be done with a disc emulator.  Ever heard of SIO2PC 
for the Atari 8-bit people.  They've had this cable for 3 years now.

Nice having 16 meg virtual Atari hard drives on my PC, hooked through a 
cable that the Atari can read, wish I had something like an emulated CMD 
drive for the c64.

But now having upgraded to a DX4-100, c64s runs 100% in all categories now/
