Does anyone know anything about Amax now supporting color?
Steven, Oldies are goldies … BTW I enjoyed your informative message about empser.device at AmigaVend/UU sec, much better than Big Jim himself (IMHO) and I'm looking forward to a empscsi.device report because I don't believe in Emplant Hardware Manual anymore (after strange test results) which told me this dev will…
Funny thing… :^) In the June issue of Amiga User, on pages 2 and 3 there is an ad for a mail order company that shows the IBM Emplant module for 89.00 pounds…. do they know something we don't…. Hmmmmm!!!!! Catya,
Thanks Jonathan, I'll look forward to hearing about its development. Chris…….
Bruno, Well, I guess the A2630 isn't properly designed if what you described is the case. Technically, you'd expect that any ram added to the board should get merged into one chunk unless the accelerator doesn't have an MMU. When I had my 2000 I only had a much older…
Phil, Yes, that's almost true until you figure in the monitor and keyboard. Plan on at least $199 for the cheapest monitor and $80 for the cheapest keyboard. If you get the better Apple monitor it's around $300 and the extended keyboard is about $125. Of course you can get…

PMJI This isn't true with DKB 2632 eg. if you use a 8MB SIMM mixed with a 16MB one, the biggest AVAILable chunk will be just 8MB (due board design perhaps?). So I was forced to change my 8MB SIMM with a second 16MB SIMM and afterwards together with the…
Any comment about Jim's announcements for a 486 emulator for PowerPC based Macs ? Published in this week's PCWeek, a lot of people seem suspicious, at least… Fred
I talked with Joe–he basically said, "Buy more memory." At this point, I have spent a lot more than I originally planned on, so I'm thinking about returning the whole kit and kaboodle for a refund. For the amount of money I've already spent, as well as what I will…
From what I understand, it will. Regards, Phil Combs

I recently repaired a TV set which was loosing it's personal preferences. Therefore, each time the TV was turned off, the sound color, channels, etc… would all reset to low sound, black and white, and no channels tuned. The problem was that the battery was dead, and when I tested…
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

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…
>> The Macintosh editor on the magazine for which I write here in >> Belgium has just received a C-64 emulator for the Mac/PowerPC! Yeah, I have that. Know where I can find and software to run on it? -Mitch

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

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…
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
glad to be of help jimmy. good luck on your quest. david
Would a DKB 2632 memory card really add contiguous 32 bit ram? If so how? I have similar problem. Joe Clarkson

Well, the "current" Emplant board comes in 3-4 models from basic to deluxe. If he can do the same thing with the PCMCIA model within 15% of the related price, I'm game. — Ron Legro / MILWAUKEE WI USA via AUTOPILOT ["Phun, phun, phun on the Infobahn…"]

your message makes total sense, david. As a matter of fact, I use my room mates 486/66 for bbsing because he has the 14.4 modem, and I only have 2400 still…Thanks for the explanation…

#Emplant Startup Prob.
Message #151171
Hi, Steve. Yikes! I had no idea when I purchased Emplant that I'd need that much memory–I thought I had plenty. Problem is, I've already dropped $700 for Emplant and a new 340 MB hard drive. I'm not ready to drop another $350 for a DKB 2632 memory card. However,…
