: What are the major differences between GUS and Fast Eddie? (If there
: are any)

1) GUS is available only as a pirated beta copy.
   Fast Eddie not. :)

2) GUS will probably never be completed.
   Fast Eddie will. :)

3) The beta of GUS does not support sound and serial ports.
   The final release of Fast Eddie will.

4) GUS emulates by replacing GS toolbox calls with Mac calls.
   Fast Eddie emulates the 'bare metal', thus it is better but
   a little slower (compatible with Rom1 & Rom3)

5) GUS won't be able to read 3.5" disks with a special DOS (FTA)
   The final release of Fast Eddie will.

6) GUS comes from Apple.
   Fast Eddie comes from a 'real programmer' & GS enthusiast.
   (This should explain everything else ;)
