What would you recommend to use instead? As this is for testing software on real hardware, it needs to be loaded tens if not hundreds of times.. I use cbmlink with a parallel (Yes, I have lots of PCs with parallel interface) to user port cable (I believe it's called PC48, it's on cbmlink docs). It works for C64, VIC-20 and PETs (at least basic 2, no 1.0 or 1.1) with the same cable. I use mainly to copy programs to real floppies or write .d64 images to a real floppy, but it can just transfer a program to memory and it's very fast (unless of course you do write on disk, in that case, it's very slow). I think it's abandonware by now, but it works enough well for me. If your friend isn't willing to spend some time making cables and trying programs, he better gets an SD-based IEC disk, like sdiec or pi-1541.
