CSA Turbo Amiga
Message #30895
I called CSA again to ask them some questions I have about their Turbo Amiga hardware. I had received some brochures earlier from them and I shared them with this forum. Here are questions and some answers. I'm sure this will generate further questions. I talked to Patricia Chouinard. 1.…

TxEd V1.3
Message #26451
I just received the V1.3 update for TxEd, and it is really swift (in all senses). It still has that wonderful requester for the disk access, but there are about thirteen other enhancements too. One good one is the "Strip, etc." menu option which strips out the extra linefeeds (if…

Message #26450
I talked to Chuck Bennett of Computer Systems Associates (CSA) of San Diego last week, and he sent me the latest info regarding the 68020/68881 enhancements for 68000/68010-based systems. As we know, they've been selling the 68020/68881 piggyback board for about a year now which converts the Amiga (and other…

#Continued from 19539
Message #19547
NTSC (composite) video signal is usually fed into the monitor with a 75-ohm cable and a plug that looks much like a stereo cable plug (RCA phono). The color information is contained in this signal with a subcarrier (19 MHz ?) with the chrominance encoded by phase modulation of the…

Sony Monitors
Message #19539

Addison-Wesley
Message #11141
I just received a missive from Addison-Wesley regarding my order of the ROM Kernal Manual and others. It was a credit memo against my charge for the items. The reason given was "Book invoiced but unable to ship." I hope this doesn't mean I will never get them! They were…

#The Real Books
Message #12753
Jeric, I'm sorry I wasn't very clear in my message. By "the real thing" I meant the official books from Commodore/Amiga. I assumed that Addison-Wesely was the publisher of those official books. I was (am) afraid that I would end up buying the same books twice. On another subject: FORTH…
#Books, Disks
Message #12587
Jeric, The last time I was down at CompuTron in Portland they had little mail-in cards from Bantam Books – here it is under the Amiga keyboard – where you could order the 'Prepublication' edition of the AmigaDOS manual for $49.95+$3 UPS. I don't know what a 'Prepublication' edition is!…
