Hi A friend of mine is about to buy a modem to get his Amiga 4000 connected to the world (and to CIS). The hardware seems not to be the problem but: Is there a good, cheap (share- or so -ware) modem/fax send/receive software for Amiga? In our small world, the dealers could not help (or just wanted to sell a 500 bucks piece of hardware, and not to care to make it useful). I'm using Bitcom/Bitfax on my DOS-PC, and I like it. I think of something similar. Appreciate any suggestions! Many thanks! Rolf

Supra sells a bundle (about $300 for fax-modem & software) or you could buy GPFax (about $50) and use it with a proper fax-modem (be sure to specify whter you want Class 1 or Class 2 software).

If your friend wants a simple term program – general purpose – we have a library full of them – Library 5 of AmigaUser. If he wants a CompuServe navigator similar to OZCIS or TAPCIS, there is a demo version of AutoPilot in AmigaVendor, Library 9, AP.LHA. The full version costs $69.95 to register, but it will save LARGE amounts of money in connect-time if he uses CIS very much. Also, it will be possible for you to download programs to your MSDOS machine and he will be able to read the disks with his 4000. It comes with software built-in to read that format. —Betty

Rolf, I couldnt help noticing your "AOPA-S" reference when reading your message with Autopilot. Are you accessing Compuserve via the AOPA BBS???? I would highly recommend "Autopilot" for your friend to access Compuserve, BTW. RGDS Laurie Carroll AKL NZ Longdistance Autopilot
