Well, I haven't been there in a year or so, but when I was there they were mainly an Amiga store and folks on the local boards seem to indicate they haven't changed. I remember they had the entire Fred Fish collection on disk, lots of games, productivity software and…
PMFJI….There's also Computer Concepts up near Lynnwood. Seattle Bob…Now a six meg maniac
OK…will do. I completely understand your concern, what's Vistapro's street price nowadays anyway? Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
Well, I don't know. This friend just gave me the disk and I figured it was legit. The program looks very interesting and I would love to get more aquainted with it. I guess he wasn't doing me any favors. Sorry…if these are not the origanal disks then there's is…
Hey, I'm not into pirated software. A friend, who no longer uses the program, gave it to me but he could not find the manual. Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
#VistaPro Manual
Message #47779
I've come across a copy of VistaPro 881, but unfortunatly it has no manual. If anyone out there has a manual the want to sell or donate, I'd really appreciate it. The disk contains ..TerraForm..ScapeMaker..VistaPro.881 and MakePath.881. Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
Thanks Mike….I have a basic 3000 with 6 megs and OS2.04. It has served me well. Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
>>Thanks for the info. I'll look for zshell.lha.
>>I use an Amiga 2000 2.04 GVP 040/16, Megachip, 500 Mb HD, VideoToaster 3.5 (running LightWave of course), PAR with 1.7 Gb HD, with misc. software for paint and animation. Pretty basic by today's standards. My dream is to own the Raptore 3 with about 240 megs of ram, two…
Hum…that's strange. I wonder why its asking for it? Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
Thanks, I'm still working on it. On the mp103 program, I DLed a GUI interface program to go with it but it says I need GadTools lib v39…any idea where I could find that? You've been very helpful, thanks. Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
Lepido, I have mp103 up and running…now I have to get used to all that UNIX code stuff. It sure is slow on my machine, Where would I find this RENO 24 thingee? thanks for your help! Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
Steve, What's a ToolManagers dock? Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.

Lepido, I've been trying to catalogue mp103.lha. Can't seem to find it. I've set my age to 600….is it older then that? Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
Thanks Steve, I have unpacked the archive and placed it in my "animations" drawer. When ever I chose the file from my Veiwtek file requester I get alot of disc activity and then I am returned to the file requester. I even tried "make anim7" and it did the same…
I downloaded XANIM and found it a bit to complicated (all that setenv stuff and frame buffer stuff). Maybe I should just forget about it since I only have a 16 mhz machine with no graphics board. Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
Its name is SL9.LHA (I think, its an animation of the Shumaker-Levy comet colliding with Jupiter). Its in the Animations lib 13. I'll check to make sure after this session. Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.

I am still looking for an Amiga program that will let me view MPEG and, or FLI animations. Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
Thanks rick for your reply. I'll think I'll keep it for awhile. I did DL a few mods and without reading the docs had them playing right away, so it does what its suppose to do even if I don't know about all the bells and whistles.
#Mod Player
Message #46902
Hello All, Can anyone recommmend thier favorite Mod player? I just downloaded "EaglePlayer" but, hey, I don't want to have to go back to college. Jeez, the manual took 30min to print up! It seems to work fine, but I don't think I need that many bells and wistles. Seattle…

Sir Sysop. How do I go about getting a simple text file of all new uploads for, say the last 200 days? Seattle Bob, Just happy to be here.
#New Modem
Message #196431
To All Amiga friends, Since it is my birthday, I've convinced my wife to buy me a 14.4 baud modem (now have 2400). I'll probably go SupraFaxModem and would like to know what is suggested as a "link speed" setting. Also need to know if there is any "special" Amiga…
I believe "Crossdos" is, but it think you want to ask Betty. Bob Oram…..AP1.80…A3000…6 megs…hoping for the best!
Thanks for replying, Are there disk there now and how can they be catalogued? Can a text file of thier contents be downloaded? Bob Oram…..AP1.80…A3000…6 megs…hoping for the best!
Something about the ROMS being printed backwards and a few other glitches. I suppose you are having no problems? Are you set up for the internet yet? Seattle Bob…Now a six meg maniac
Yea, upgrading should be in my future…but I hear 3.1 can be a little touchy in A3000s. Seattle Bob…Now a six meg maniac

Message #192646
Where does one find Amosaic 1.2? I plan on trying this www internet adventure, but I'm waiting for when I get my 14.4 modem (2400 now) because I see you need MUI and downloading that at 2400 whould certainly take awhile. Do you know of any problems with this new…
#Fred Fish
Message #46532
Sysop, I haven't really dabbled much here in ATech but I notice that one of the sections is "Fred Fish". Does that mean that there are Fish disks here to catalogue and down load? If so, do you just type in the disk number in the "keyword" box in the…
#DL to RAM
Message #189813
Betty, Thanks for your swift reply….but. More stupid questions. OK, I did the makedir ram stuff and all seemed to work well, the archive unpacked and all. However I saw no change in the ram window, I clicked ram off and then double clicked it back on and there was…

#DL to RAM
Message #189692
Betty, Now that I've added 4 megs of fast memory to my A3000 I decided to change my AP download path to RAM. When I do that all works fine but how do I cd to ram to unpack the archive, what is the command line to unpack to ram?…
Scott, PMFJI…but I just completed that very same procedure on Saturday. I moved the 8 256kx4 dips over to the graphic ram section and added 8 1×4 zips to the fast ram section. Jim's instructions are right on. Just a few more things. Get a chip puller for the dips,…
Mark, $16 including shipping and we've got a deal. The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
Mark, How much for the horse racing game? I'd be intersested. The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
Paul, Shall we deal again? Now that I have this new capability I should spread my wings! Is that the latest version of brillance? If it is. I'd be interested. Also Populous. Let me know. The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
Kris, Hey…I'm a Seattlite too!! Idon't know if you want color or B/W but for about $150 you sure can't beat the B/W Epson Stylus 300. I have one hooked up to my A3000 and it is a fine inkjet. There is an Epson Q driver in your preferences drawer…

Bill, Thanks for the info. Looks like Saturday is the day of the big operation. Would you suggest getting some "canned air" and doing a little house cleaning while I'm in there? The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
Paul, Mr. Zombie….just wanted to know if you have gotten my Money Order. I mailed it on Monday. How will you be shipping the chips? Keep me posted. The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
Paul, Bingo! Please e-mail me with your address and the full expense and I will fire off a money order. Glad to hear you are warped again. The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
Paul, I am truely bummed. The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
Paul, PMFJI….but I'm hanging on your every word. How 'bout you just put 4 meg back in and sell me the other 4 ;-). Keep plugging and I'm sure you'll get that Warp workin'. Keep in touch! The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
Paul, Sounds good. Let me know how you want to work this, ie. personal check or money order? Get me the total including shipping and your address and I'll mail as soon as possible. save this message as here is my address….. Bob Oram 10711 19th Ave. N.E. Seattle, Wash.…
Paul, Cool indeed !!! No more "not enough memory" gurus. Let me know how it goes with the Warpengine and we"ll set the wheels in motion. I have all the manuals but I.ve never cracked the hood on this baby…may need your expertese when it comes time to operate. The…
Paul, That would be great! I've been looking to expand my stock A3000 16mgz machine for some time (only have 1meg fast and 1 meg chip). These ZIP's are compatable, right? Let me know as soon as you can and I'll scrape together the moola. The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the…
I'd sure be interested in 4 megs….any left? The Bobster….going Amiga 'til the hard drive dies.
I feel Macs are a little more akin to the Amiga. Windows kinda looks like a bad comic book….haven't seen OS/2 warp. Really can't afford to do anything right now, tried to add 4 megs to my 3000 but it seems we're talkin' $400(US) WOW….. maybe $150 for 3.1 would…
