Add me to the list of A4000 owners! Got mine Thursday night, and just wish I had more ways of exploring the new graphics modes. Does the new version of SAS/C include Dos 3.0 functions? When is DP IV.5 coming out? etc… Coupla problems. I'm working with my dealer on the problem that my DF0: doesn't recognize diskchange. I can run the diskchange command and get it to work, but that's it. Also, I have a 1950 monitor and have some disappointments with it, at least initially. (I should clarify that I've had this monitor for years.) It seems I should be able to use Monitor type DBLNTSC, and I can, except when I try to set my overscan, the screen blacks out for about an inch or so on each side. Is this normal? If so, is that how it works with all monitors? I've got full overscan with NTSC, so that's what I'm using now, but I had really hoped for a good hi-res Workbench with this version, and so far I'm sticking with good ol' 640×200. Anyway, I have few impressions other than the ADPro image quality is terrific, MultiView is pretty neat, especially with images that can be displayed on Workbench, and Imagine renders in no time! Bring on the demos! Don Weed
