Brigeboard Dilemma
Message #74118
Marion, speaking of drives, he says sliding into the conversation, I'm still in the process of setting up my 386 bridgeboard and am wondering how to access msdos cartridges on my 40 meg syquest. Any suggestions? The problem is that I currently have the drive daisy-chained off of my quantum…

Mommy, what's a AMAX II+
Message #74111
Mike, I can't give you many numbers, but I can assure you that the AMAX is a good investment if you need to use a Mac, but don't require color. I had an AMAX cartridge (plugs into your floppy port, and you need to use an external MAC floppy drive…

Mommy, what's a AMAX II+
Message #74095
Steve, I think that latter problem is pretty much resolved. The problem I had with the GVP 3001 was cured and I believe the problems with the Series II cards has pretty much been cleared up with the latest software version (2.51, I think.)
Mike & John & Steve Thanks for the replies! When I finally get AMAX II, I post a message to let everyone know if works with 6.0.5. Les Clark

Bridgboard
Message #629
I went VGA two weeks after I got the bridgeboard. CGA, just didn't give me that thrill. It did make quite a diferance though. I do wish I had 68030 machine though. Can't quite justify the expense right now. Maybe in a year or two, I'll move up to the…

Thanks, I really am I something of a speed/memory demon. Anthying less the 4 meg and 15 or 20hz seems like I'm back on the old apple// How did anyone do anything with 48k, how did I do anything with 48k In my old (yeah right) age I'm afraid I've…

Faster 8088 BBoard
Message #625
Mark, As far as I know the two SOTA boards are compatible save for the mouse problem mentioned. The TallGrass board was reported to be fully compatible, but the user did not report anything about availability. I understand that there is an Orchid "E" version large board which does work,…

AMAX & 6.0.5 Problem?
Message #557
With AMAX II, the system reports that Mac+ ROMS are MAC+ ROMS, as it should. I had noticed that 512KE pecularity also. One MAC cdev that I find useful – since I have to system manage a bunch of them (among a lot of other machines) is "MacEnvy II" which…
I should also add, since it is unclear in my first reply, that I had problems with 6.0.4 under AMAX I. I haven't tried 6.0.4 with AMAX II in the couple of days that I have had the update. Mike

#AMAX & 6.0.5 Problem?
Message #555
Readysoft claims in the Amax II literature that they have tested it through 6.0.5. I haven't verified that, since most of our MACs at work are on 6.0.4 and I have been running my AMAX I with 6.0.3 since I had problems with 6.0.4. I will look around to see…

Amax II/Advantage 2000
Message #552
Thanks for the reply. The second part of your answer is what I was looking for, that the controller does support SCSIDirect and that tape drives/backup software using that are compatible. Cheers, Mike

AMAX II
Message #128
AMAX II is out? Dang! I've gotten no upgrade notice from Readysoft. I guess it's time for a call. — Art

#A500 IBM emulator
Message #120
For anyone that is interested… I have received and installed the A500's new IBM emulator distributed by Pulsar Technologies. So far the installation was a breeze. Essentially, I have an IBM-xt dual floppy disk system hidden inside my A500. No, it doesn't run as a subtask of Workbench (like the…

AMAXII <> Supra WORDSYNC
Message #104
BTW, I recently ordered the AMAX II upgrade, but have yet to receive it. I am very anxious to find out some of its new features, so could you please detail some of its new abilities? (besides the ones that were already listed in the ad & upgrade flyer, unless…

AMAXII <> Supra WORDSYNC
Message #103
Are you using the latest version of the Supra system software (1.10)? I don't think earlier versions (1.09 and before) will work with AMAX II.
