Backup Magic
Italic textBackup Magic, Carl England, 2005
Review By Brian Palmer.
Backup Magic, The Best Copy Protection Backup Program on the Market Today, This program really makes the Coco 1,2 and 3 shine, In the Terms of it's Disk Backup power, And the speed it runs at. I Ran the Program on Z-89 By Steve Bjork, This Game has over 20 odd tracks copy protected, Backup Magic made a backup working version in about 40-50 secs flat, Now this is Quick by any Standards in Tandy Disk IO routines, But Here is the Kicker, Carl rewrote the IO routines to be faster in the read/write section, So in a sense, The Routines are Carls own ingenious code. And If your wondering if it can backup a non copy protected disk in the same time, The answer is Yes by what I have seen, But Don't take my word for it tho, You'll have to see it for yourself. What would be good, Is If you could re-program the FDC eprom, to use Carl's Backup IO Routines, And delete the Tandy Routines in the Floppy Disk Controller. But that's only the Rsdos version, There is a Pc version, which allows you to copy a copy protected program to run in a coco 1,2 and 3 emulator, Now Hows that for pure programming genious, Carl has thought of it all, The name of this program is called Magic2Pc.
