sorry, you are now in a long line of potential buyers. I will get back with you. About #10
The PC module is in internal testing now and will go to outside beta sites soon. Following that, it will be publicly available for purchase. Yes, it's getting real close! -Jonathan // Amiga online via Autopilot. MAC Quadra 900 and \\// 486 emulation. E-Mail: jonathanb@delrina.com
Interesting, I wonodered why it worked! Bob Comer — AmigaDOS and OS/2, the only way to compute! Cheyenne, Wyoming U.S.A.
>1. Would this _really_ work? Yes, it does! It works great on my 23-15 pin adapter, but I don't know if it'll help the sync-strainer. Bob Comer — AmigaDOS and OS/2, the only way to compute! Cheyenne, Wyoming U.S.A.

#CDTV Keyboard
Message #151322
Peter, I got a CDTV keyboard some time ago from Grapevine. I don't know if they can still get them. It's the same as the 3000 keyboard but it's spray painted black by an infant and has a different cable. I gutted it and exchanged innards with my 3000 keyboard…

#Monitor trouble
Message #151321
You said you borrowed the DBLNTSC from your 1200. Did you install it on a 500, 2000, or 3000? If so they may not support it, therefore the system ignored the listing in you monitor setup. Just a guess. Jim R. Ollick Using AP from Bergenfield, NJ
Dean, No, you didn't drop the ball…I had simply posted a message to you asking if the 51xxxx parts were equivalent to the 41xxxx parts since I got a set of 16 MCM514256AZ10 chips and wanted to use them in a 2620. They are Motorola parts. So anyway…what do you…

Marion, Thanks for letting me know that it is PD. I would of bought it years ago but his price was a bit much for me at the time. I guess this is all mute as the GG doesn't support it anyway, huh? Andrew

#EMPLANT PC emulation
Message #151313
Can someone update me on the status of PC emulation on the EMPLANT. What is out or what is planned? I heard there is a 486 module available. I recently ordered the EMPLANT for the MAc side but would like to have the PC option if it's available. Thanks en…

I would buy an PCMCIA version of Emplant in a minute. That is one piece of hardware I want. …uh what would it cost . Jim
If CrossDos is set up correctly on your Amiga you should have no problem reading or writing a PC formatted Syquest. CrossDos came as part of AmigaDos 2.1 or so. The Syquests will need to be formatted on your PC, Ounce you get things set up correctly its all quite…
Ron, I've been told that all the keyboard takes is a PS/2 adapter. These are readily available in the PC world..and cheap. Bill
"At least, it is no longer officially traded on the NYSE, though I understand that you can buy and sell it on "pink slips" (My understanding is that the stock isn't officially transfered to the name of the new owner, but the old owner and new owner basically have a…
Thomas, The best solution I've seen so far that doesn't involve scan doubling is monitors with long-persistance phosphors. These phosphors "hold" their photon charge long enough that there is little decay between fields. Some phosphors, though, can be so long that any reasonable screen rewrite (say closing a Workbench window)…
Erik, Yes in both cases. Pin 15 of the Amiga video port is a 3.58 MHz square wave that is just waving in the breeze. Without any load, its full 5v signal is cross-talking into its two closest neighbors, Red and Green. If only 1% of that signal is coupled,…
Ah, I see! So, when I'm printing at my driver's 300 x 300 dpi, this RET is in there, making my print look better automatically! This I can live with! Thanks again. *B^) Pat L.

Monitor trouble
Message #151293
I have tried both warm and cold rebooting and the results are the same. I tend to think the problem lies in the deinterlacer in the IV24.
Flicker Fixer for sale
Message #151292
The Flicker Fixer has been sold. But it's job is to de-interlace the standard A2000 display and send it to a VGA or Multisynch monitor. These monitors have a higher scan rate than the 1084 from Commodore. If you need one keep looking here as there have ben some for…

#Syquest via emulation?
Message #151289
I have an A3000 and a SCSI-based 486 that I need to share data between; what I'd like to know is whether there is such a thing as a piece of Amiga software that will let me read and write to MS-DOS formatted 88Meg Syquest carts. If not, would it…
PMFJI, I recently resubscribed to AW after a 2-year hiatus and got both the June and July issues on the same day last week. I suspect that they rushed the July issue to print to give the news about C=. I don't think it is on the newsstands here yet.…
Wayne, I'd appreciate it if you could CMail me the drivers, since I have been unable to find them in any of the Libraries here. It seems I have the old versions of the drivers and the Overscan program, even though I got this machine very recently. It's not clear…
Dale… You can put me down for a fan and alarm. For about the first year the 4000 would run so hot at times you couldn't place your hand on the back of the case by the hard drive and power supply. I don't know if there's any connection but…
#Upgrade Memory chips
Message #151281
Don, Did I promise you an answer on some DRAM questions? If so, I apparently dropped the ball! If my memory serves me, the difference between the 51 and the 41 versions of DRAMS is that the 41's are an NMOS process and 51's are a CMOS process. In most…

Amiga's
Message #151280
I agree with your response completely but thought I'd throw this in anyhow. You can get two foppy drives the the old 5.25 bay by getting a TEAC double 5.25 / 3.5 HD drive unit. After all these years of upgrading I plan to get a high end 486 or…

Tahiti I Settings???
Message #151277
Hmmmm, I notices something about that in the documentation… "Peripheral Device Type" Jumper "open" = Optical storage device Jumper installed = Direct-access device. I'll try changing that and see what happens. / / / //ANDRE
Joe, It should. AmigaDOS 2.1 will basically pool all the 32 bit ram into a contiguous chunk, at least it's supposed to. Steve
Phil, If there's another less expensive option you would really need to talk with Jim or Joe at UU about how to configure your Emplant for maximum use of your available memory. I don't have any other helpful suggestions for your at this point. Steve
Terminus won't go
Message #151274
Jack, Please forgive my earlier message, but I was really frustrated at not being able to get Terminus to run so I could finally check it out to see if I wanted to go ahead and pay for it and use it. With the help of a forum member, I…
glad to be of help jimmy. good luck on your quest. david
Thanks, I suspected there might be some such confusion. I wasn't the one who argued C= UK wasn't trading (for all I knew without thinking hard about it, UK might have been only a partially-owned subsidiary and a publicly traded one), but I was confused by the statement that C=…
Would a DKB 2632 memory card really add contiguous 32 bit ram? If so how? I have similar problem. Joe Clarkson

Well, I just got the latest AmigaWorld, smaller than ever, and it discusses the situation a little bit. Paul
"Cease trading" is UK-ese meaning no longer doing business.
Len, (Greg says butting in where he probably doesn't belong) you need to CD to the directory where your LHA is at so that it can be executed as an AmigaDos command. For instance, if the file you want to decompress is in RAM: you should type….. cd WORK:compress (or…

Len, What are the name of these files exactly? If they are compression/decomp. files they are probably self extracting. You can usually tell by the file suffix.
Kevin, I am glad to know someone has had some luck with Supra Customer Service. Maybe after some of my calls and letters they changed things. The fact being is that when I have called them I have got responses from "what is an Amiga" to "I think someone here…
Paula isn't as ancient as the 8520s, but wasn't opened up for AA so is pretty dated. — Dale L. Larson, Intangible Assets Manufacturing
I meant that C= could theoretically make a new Paula with FIFO that would have minimal compatibility impact. You can't do anything about it except add a Zorro-II card or something. — Dale L. Larson, Intangible Assets Manufacturing
Sure, they are certainly still operating. "ceased trading," at least in the US, would usually refer to Commodore stock, though, and that is true. At least, it is no longer officially traded on the NYSE, though I understand that you can buy and sell it on "pink slips" (My understanding…

Gary, On what basis do you assume that Supra have no people left who know what an Amiga is? And why do you say that the Supra's are so bad? I've got a rack of Modems at the office which I look after and the only ones that I don't…
