  Has anyone out there in netland had any experience with a product called
"21 SECOND BACKUP" from a company by the name of VG Data Shack located in
Quebec and as advertised in RUN magazine?
  The package apparently contains both hardware and sofware and claims to
back-up an entire disk in 21 seconds (!).
  I am interested in what if any modifications are required to the disk drive
and/or c64 and how extensive these might be. Also just how efective is the
product as compared to the advertising claims.
  Thanks for any and all responses.
