Betty, > Your friend needs an Amiga 1084 or 1070 or other Amiga monitor, if > possible. Otherwise, he can use a multisync if it will go as low as > 15.7. Forgive my ignorance, but as low as 15.7 what? (actually, I'm just curious. There is no chance that he would ever buy a new monitor). Is there such a thing as a really cheap monochrome Amiga monitor? Is it even worth looking for? He claims that he really only wants to use the computer for email. > As for the modem, his Amiga can use any Hayes-compatible modem and a > standard serial cable. So am I to understand that the 500 comes with a serial port? We found out that the IIe would require an upgrade to add one… just too much effort and expense to become roadworthy on even the backroads of the information e-way. > If he is lucky enough to have found an Amiga500 with 2.04 or later > installed, and he has a 1M Agnus and at least 2M of fast memory, he could > even use AutoPilot That's complete gibberish to me (except for the AutoPilot part) but please don't waste the bandwidth trying to explain, I really don't want to know <G>. I will pass your comments on to my friend and he can work it out with the fellow he bought the machine from. Thanks for the info and the tips on the available comm programs here. – Steve
