Thanks for the review, I have been holding back on ordering one because
of the lack of proper 8 bit support.
I second the thanks for the review of the Apple SqueezerGS. I oredered one and should have it in by next week, at the latest. I'm not worried about it not working in 8 bit mode as I have an Apple //c+, with a FloppyEMU, that I'll run 8 bit software on.

Hi Matthew,
Thank you for the review, and nice to hear your feedback! I'm glad the installation was easy for you and everything fit well, and that you're enjoying the acceleration :)
As for the 8-bit AppleWorks, I will see what I can do about this! In general, 8-bit software should work ok, but I have focused most of my testing on GS-specific software such as GS/OS and software that runs on that, as well as 16 bit games. So it's
entirely possible that some 8-bit compatibility can be improved, and I will look into this more when I have time! For the time being I'm still spending time on producing more AppleSqueezers for all the pre-orders, but once those are out of the way, I can
focus on more in-depth stuff like this. For the time being, you may be able to try to disable acceleration in the AppleSqueezer control panel and see if this makes any difference. Not ideal of course, but more so that you can still use the software you
want to use until there's a better fix. At least the AppleSqueezer is updatable, so if and when I fix it, you can update it.
Let me know if you have any more questions or other feedback!
Kind regards,
Niek
