The C64's disk drive was slower than other computer's cassette drives!
Commodore's cassette drive ran at a horrific 50 baud, and the disk drive
was 300. As a comparison, the TRS-80 cassette drive was 1500 baud, IIRC.
We used to joke we could type the BASIC programs from magazines into a
C64 almost as fast as we could load them from tape.
