   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
