Thank you, Betty. I truly am delighted with the response of helpful people such as yourself on this Compuserve Network. John
Thanks for the note on the TFL. I will download it sometime. It will be nice to see a network of places to obtain information. I must admit I am impressed with the wealth of info to be obtained on the Compuserve Network. I know I have not yet scratched…
Tom, are you located in Chs? Have you visited? The store I was referring to is called the Software Haus. I will look at TFL to see if there is a local Amiga User Group, but, should I look for the file on Compuserve? John
Hi, Tom. That BBS person is probably me. If you want to sign on it is 803720-8587 — designed for public education and exchange of information in the field of psychiatry, psychology, behavioral medicine. There is one store in the area of Charleston that carries Amiga equipment — they limit…
#Charleston, SC
Message #115641
Talk about a small world! My office happens to be on State Street, which is adjacent and parallet to Church St. I have a nice view of St. Phillips Steeple from my office window. This really is a charming city with a lot of character — including horse drawn carriages…
Well, Ernie, I can see you like to leave short messages. I take it the SOTA386i is an internal board made to fit inside of any PC compatible which seems also to work in the Amiga slots designed for IBM peripherals. I take it this board works if there already…
Thanks, Betty. Since it is the rigour to not put in personal information, I will cancel my own. I guess people can ask if they want to know something, although, it is interesting to see what they volunteer on their own. I can tell that you are a conscientious person.…
Betty, you certainly are a help to me. I will try out your recommendations. Incidentally, I attempted to learn more about the people who were helping me such as yourself, however, received something like invalid ID or no ID when I plugged in everybody's ID who did send me a…
#Printer Drivers
Message #115301
Dear folks and Amiga Lovers everywhere, I have just purchase a HP Deskjet + printer and I am very excited about the quality of the text and even the graphic output. However, version 1.3 AmigaDos has the printer driver only for the HP Deskjet and not the updated "Plus" model.…
John, Thanks so much for your lengthy and helpful response. I think your idea is meritable. I will discuss this with him and continue to explore the topic. . . John
Kevin, Thanks so much for your response. I was unaware of the availability of a 386 processor for the Amiga — any more information on where to inquire about this would be appreciated. Does it attach to the 286 bridgeboard made by Commodore? Also, would be interested in knowing if…
John, I am excited to hear your response. Can you give me any more info? Do you have a good deal of experience with auto can? Are you in the field of architecture? Are you using a 2000 with the 286 bridgeboard? How much RAM would you recommend? Any trouble…
Betty, thank you for your response. I am truly gratified with being able to obtain assistance. Locally, there just are no knowledgeable people on Amiga. From you comments, it sounded as though Auto-Cad worked, but only after a great deal of trouble — this does not sound practical. Maybe there…
#Auto-Cad ?
Message #114443
Does anybody know if the CAD program "Auto-Cad" can be satisfactorily run on an Amiga 2000 with a bridgeboard? My son is an architecture student and favors the Amiga, however, "Auto-Cad" is pretty much a standard CAD program and seems to be either MS-Dos or Unix. Must he purchase an…
