ProScript Message #24963
From: Warren Briggs Amiga Vendor Forum · New Horizons July 6, 1991 10:49 AM
Dear New Horizons: The university I attend has free PostScript printing and so I would like to output ProWrite files in PostScript format. I've seen ProScript V1.0 at the local computer store and had them try it out but the file didn't print. It was created on ProWrite 3.0.1 and…

Thanks for the info. I have no idea what ROM release it is (I only got it a week ago?) but it should be fairly recent. Will I get both the ROM (if necessary) and the sii-ICDPATCH from GVP or can I get that from you ppl? Warren Briggs, OVC'92
#HD Parking? Message #8352
From: Warren Briggs Amiga Tech Forum · Forum Business/Help March 12, 1991 10:20 PM
Looking for a bit of help… I just recently purchased a 52M GVP Series II for my A500. Do I need a parking utility or is it "autopark"? It seems strange just turning off the power to the whole kit'n'kaboodle system with one hit of the power bar but is…

Sure thing….. A-10 Tank Killer was a beast at 7MHz, but with AdSpeed the 'ol "WartHog" is cutting up the battlefield (T-80 soviet tanks don't stand a chance….). I keep getting nailed by SAM's, though… I also play "Battle of Britan" at 14.3MHz. It really makes a difference when there…

I bought the AdSpeed at WOC in Toronto the end of November. I haven't left 14.3MHz since…. I love it….my A500 loves it…. Not a single incompatability problem since then….. Well, one…Wayne Gretzy Hockey…but then I just flick the little switch I made and am a stock A500 and the…

Yeaaaah! I have a healthy 1084S again! I left it overnight and it came back the next morning just fine! Whew…. Then again, it would've given me an excuse to get ICD's FlickerFree Video card and a simple VGA monitor!! 🙂 Thanks for the advice…. Warren….VET92

Thanks for the info. I feel pretty confident about this sort of thing (done it once or twice in the past)….that is, opened a computer! 🙂 Just what will the modification involve? Will it render potential add-ons like the Racer or a hard-drive incompatible? Just a vet student, Warren

Thanks muchly for the info..! What do you know about the transfer rates of the "new generation" of SCSI controllers? All I read about is the GVP Series II+, the Supra 500XP and the Trumpcard Prof (which is the only one that quotes a transfer rate of 1.9M / sec).…
