I believe that the MAC is slowly headed the way of our own beloved AMIGA… so go for a Pentium machine! It isn't half of the computer my trusty old A2000 is with its GVP 040 accelerator but then it has 20 billion programs ready to go now. !Que Viva…
I bought wordPerfect 4.1.11 when it first came out. The Preview function never worked, and 4.1.11 was the last Amiga Version made. I still use it everyday and I have 3.1 OS on my Amiga 2000. Still works like a charm. !Que Viva La Amiga!
I'm sorry but I do not have a Retina Card for sale. I don't even have a card period (I would like to own one!!) Maybe you read the Ealastic Reality for sale message. Good luck!! !Que Viva la Amiga! Digital Universe at the touch of our fingertips
I am VERY interested in the GVP Series II SCSI controller with power supply (0K, no HD) is it still available? I want to buy it. I just got a A500 for my kids to use for their homework and I want to expand it. Please let me know your…
I don't know if this idea will help but… Save each individual page as a ProPage document to be printed on a non-Postscript printer (such as a Laserjet or Bubblejet). then use Lharc Pkzip to compress your files. The person who downloads your file can then unarch the files and…

Betty, thanks for the info. BTW, do you know if anyone took over the Qaurterback product line? I sent away for an upgrade of Quarterback Tools, they cashed my check, then they went out of business. Also I wanted to upgrade my version of Quarterback 5.0 to the next version.…

Ron, thanks for your in depth info. I will look into the previous questions and I'll let you know what happens. Have a joyous holiday season! !Que Viva la Amiga! Digital Universe at the touch of our fingertips
Albert, all you need to do is connect your CD-ROM drive to the Amiga SCSI port. Make sure your termination resistors are set according to where the drive lies in the SCSI chain and your SCSI ID# does not duplicate any other SCSI device you may already have (harddisks, etc,).…

#MOD player
Message #44680
Can anyone offer any suggestions as to a MOD Player or program that works with MODS? I don't know anything about this musical format, but I realize there are 1,000 of MOD files out there. Thanks! !Que Viva la Amiga! Digital Universe at the touch of our fingertips
PMFJI, but speaking of HDTooBox, how does this program stack up against the old Quaterback Tools and Amitools? How about its siter program HDBack-up? I never hear about anyone using these two programs for harddistk maintenence. Is this because they shipped from Commodore (anti-C= prejudice)? Or is it because the…

PMFJI, after I read your message, I used the version command and got the following from my Amiga 2000 using a GVP 040'33mz board: "Libs:68040.library 37.4" It also has the imbedded date of 10.2.92 . I bought this accelerator this last June, and I upgraded to 2.1 early last year.…
#A500 problems
Message #177606
Eric, I can't help you because I just bought an A500 from a co-worker. But I thought I would tag my questions on to youra and see if anyone out there can help us both out. The A500 I bought came with the original 1.2 ROMS, and OS. My questions…

#Magic WorkBench install.
Message #168318
Today I received Magic Workbench 2.0 in the mail. When I tried installing it I received messages such as "resident command is not present", "wrong number of arguments", and "IU:unknown command" I believe that this may be because the installation is looking for AGA or AMigaDOS 3.0 specific commands. Can…
#Dos3.1 vs Propage4.0
Message #168317
I have seen some messages posted that Professional Page 4.1 does not work with the new AmigaDOS 3.1 Can anyone tell me if this is true? If so how bad is it? I have a lot of forms and booklets that I have designed on PPage, and I cannot afford…
Thanks for the info. I've tried these programs but they seem to have a problem with the newer .sit files I have downloaded from Compuserve. Two examples are AFORNT.sit from the Desktop publishing EPS library; also Halrps.sit from the same library. !Que Viva la Amiga! Digital Universe at the touch…

#misaligned pointer:ADPRO
Message #88622
I have been using ADPRO 2.5 for some time now. I have this weird problem with my pointer. It seems that when I point at a button or a word in the menus, I have to actually put my pointer tip slightly above the intended target. Is there a reason…
WordProcess.Program
Message #160309
I have been using Final Writer 2 for sa couple of months. It is THE best word processing program around for the Amiga. It too uses compugraphic and Postscript fonts for its output. It can also import EPS Clip art and show it on screen if it is in Adobe…
#Laserjet IIIP
Message #158472
Do you know of a GOOD printer driver for the Laserjet IIIP? One that allows access to the printers internals fonts, and enhanced graphics settings? The Commodore laserjet driver is very primitive. Is it possible to write a text script that would instruct the printer to turn on its enhanced…
