Larry, What extra graphic modes (resolution and # of colors) does Byte say the A3000 has? –Rocco–
Steve, If you hear anything, please keep us posted. –Rocco–
#Hannover-Germany
Message #95279
Does anyone know when the Hannover Germany show is? I thought it was in March. If it has already occured, did CBM announce the A3000 or any other rumored products? –Rocco–
I thought of that. According to the people I spoke to the card is verticle to the motherboard (forms a upside down T). Cards plugged into this expansion board are parallel to the motherboard. The problem with adding more slots or a bigger expansion card is that it would go…
You can not read it anywhere until March I'm told. My source is someone (actually two people) who have access to CBM headquarters, have seen and worked with the machine. If you choose not to believe anything until you see it in print, so be it. I won't be the…
The reason why I put this info on this forum was to get reactions and to see if I was they only one who felt that CBM was making a mistake. Don't get me wrong, I think a scalled down version with 4 slots, a small footprint and a low…
From what I'm being told, Commodore is making an 80386 bridgecard. It is based on the 386SX chip. I do not have any information yet if it can now use the Amiga serial port or has built in VGA graphics. I can almost certainly say that the A3000 does not…
#A3000 specs
Message #85517
I heard from two different people who saw the new A3000 that it has two interesting features. 1) The A3000 has a smaller footprint than the A2000, thus it will take up less space on your desktop. 2) The unit uses a single slot expansion card that has four expansion…
Rob, Thank you for the information. I just got a upgrade memo from Gold Disk telling me that as a Pagesetter owner I could call for my upgrade for $150.00 I just did it today. Thanks for the information. -Rocco-
No problem. I tried calling Gold disk and got a tape machine. Told them my question, and left my phone number for them to call me back. It's been two weeks and no return phone call. I tried getting the upgrade information here and they tell me to call. What's…

Don, Interesting idea. I will give it a try. If it works I'll let you know. Rocco PS I thought I had tried everthing. Thanks for the new idea!
As i've said let's hope that Commodore comes to to their senses and lowers the price. $1000.00 list price might be acceptable but $1599.00 is insane. My dealer confirmed the $1599.00 price for me yesterday, but said the boards would not ship until January 1989. I hope Commodore uses this…
Like yourself, I was shocked too. In my user group Long Island Commodore Amigians, we had 50 members who had planned to join in on a group purchase of the 80286 AT Bridgeboard. When the group heard the price was $1599 instead of the original estimation of about $1000, not…

#80286 Bridge Card When
Message #13959
The PVA has a professional genlocbuilt in and a video frame grabber. I have not heard about the final version of the software, but I believe that it will do many ofatures of the VIdeo Toaster. The only drawback is that it does not have an S-VHS connector like the…
Is that 40 to 60 days using a normal calender or is it the CBM Calendar that has the definition of REAL SOON NOW on it? Seriously, I can't see what the delay is here. We are not talking about State of the Art Technology anymore with an AT 80286.…

#80286 & 68020 Boards
Message #113493
Can anyone tell me the status of the 80286 Bridge card or the 68020 for the 2000. I am interested in finding out about the release dates. In addition does anyone know if the new bridge card will be bundled with a 5 1/4 inch drive. If it is I…
Andy, Thanks for the responce, and I appreciate the information. Dare I ask what the graphics modes are supposed to do? (ie there are more graphics modes there then I think my Amiga 2000 supports) Since you would prefer not to mention when, can you attach resolutions/# of colors to…
Don, In the mean time if you hear anything please let me know. Rocco

#1.3 Printer Drivers
Message #111360
Don, With the new preferences you can select from graphics mode 0-7. What do each of these graphics modes stand for? I'm just wondering if this has anything to do with the rumored new chip set for the Amiga. Rocco

#1.3 Printer Drivers
Message #111124
Are you saying that Infinity software had permission to use the 1.3 printer devices? Does this also mean they could have used the full 1.3 workbench? Do you know when the final 1.3 will be available from Commodore? Will it be released with a new Kickstart chip and a hard…

Don, This version looks pretty finalized to me. I'm suprised that they could release it with an over the counter product without Commodore's approval. If you have any questions about it I'll be glad to answer them. Rocco

IBM 3101 EMULATION
Message #104722
Joel, We spoke about 2 weeks ago about IBM 3101 emulation and you had mentioned that a friend of yours used DTERM with a command file he wrote. I now have DTERM from this forum and want to know if your friend will upload his command file? Thanks for the…
Terry I tried VT100 emulation, but it did not work. I will try to get more specifics to see if another type of emulation is possible. Thanks — Rocco
Joel, Thanks, I was wondering what DME was. I will look for DTerm. Rocco

#IBM 3101 Emulation
Message #101829
Does anybody know of a program for the Amiga that will allow it to emulate an IBM 3101 terminal? I have Diga! but can't figure how to write my own emulation even with their instructions. Any help or advise will be appreciated. Rocco
