From: Spencer Gross Amiga User Forum · Hot News and Rumors March 19, 1995 2:34 AM
If AmigaWorld is out of business, why did I receive a renewal form from AmigaWorld in the mail today?

#gvp Message #63407
From: Spencer Gross Amiga Vendor Forum · MicroIllusions September 2, 1993 2:37 AM
I thought I read, a few weeks ago, that GVP was going to join this forum, but I still do not see them in the list of participating vendors. Did I get it wrong?

David, I have called Macrosystems within the last week (and GVP as well- but I will get to that in a moment.) I was told by someone at Macro- that "AGAemulation" is AGA resolutions, but that "Amiga animations" will not work properly. Now, the call to GVP…I was told that…
Ben, Thank-you for replying to my message. It was a pleasure to get as 1) I had forgotten I had posted anything, and 2) your message was interesting and informative. I will certainly look at Imagemaster. In the ad for HiddenImage software for the PC by Sehgal, it states that…

Does anyone know what has happened to Hahn-Wallace Publishing (AKA H-W Publishing), who publish AmigaAnimation and AmigaGames, disc-based periodical? Months ago I called and gave them a credit card number for some PD disks, and have heard/recieved nothing. All their phone numbers have "disconnected" messages: (800)-THE-MAG; (800)-775-6711; (301)-595-0950; (813)-547-6711. There…

From: Spencer Gross Amiga Tech Forum · Forum Business/Help August 5, 1991 12:42 AM
Thanks for responding to my quiery about Access! a few days ago. Using XMODEM works fine even if quick B doesn't. Of course I am curious about your secret project. But I am patient!
Bootcache Message #12954
From: Spencer Gross Amiga Tech Forum · Library News August 5, 1991 12:39 AM
This is a wonderful utility! Under 1.3 on my A3000, I can again play Emerald Mines- my favorite game and the only one which would not run on my 3000. I disabled the caches using 'bootblock' in the utility, and the game runs perfectly. The .doc with the utility is…
help-lharc Message #12953
From: Spencer Gross Amiga Tech Forum · Forum Business/Help August 5, 1991 12:33 AM
I want to thank you for your help a few days ago. I have now downloaded LHARC and successfully decompressed BCACHE. And it worked! I am again able to play my favorite (silly) game, Emerald Mines, on my A3000, by disabling the 68030 caches before the bootblock, using BCACHE.
help-lharc Message #30794
From: Spencer Gross Amiga User Forum · Forum Business/Help August 2, 1991 1:44 AM
I have tried 5 or 6 times to download lharc.exe, first using access! and just now using BaudBandit. I have tried Comp B, QB, B+. Every time, I get the message "Failure during protocol initialization." I have an A3000. Could its 32 bit pathways be a prob? Any A3000 owners…

I just downloaded BCACHE.LZH/binary to see if I can an old game on my A3000. But, how do I run this utility?? Do I need to de-compress it? Any help appreciated.

From: Spencer Gross Amiga User Forum · Amiga Hardware July 20, 1991 2:27 AM
Thanks to all who shared their thoughts on 3000 v. 2500. I go into more detail in Amiga Tech, message 12278, under A3000 v. 2500.
#A3000 v. A2500 Message #12278
I thank each of you who kindly responded to my question about the 2500 v. the 3000. I have learned alot and am much more comfortable with my choice. In fact the only program I have been unable to run is a game: Emerald Mines. Somehow the game's copyprotection is…
#A3000 v. A2500 Message #28927
From: Spencer Gross Amiga User Forum · Amiga Hardware July 16, 1991 11:36 AM
I have recently powered-up to the A3000, selling my A2000. Now I wonder if I have made a mistake given software incompatabilities, smaller case, smaller power supply, no bridge card-yet, hareware glitches, limits on RAM etc. I am considering returning my A3000 and powering-down to the A2500/30. Please share your…

I recently powered-up to the A3000. Given its problems: smaller case, smaller power-supply, software incompatabilities, no bridge card, hardware glitches etc., I am considering returning it and powering-down to a 2500/30. Please share your thoughts on this.
