Hi Gary, I will send you the extended cost with UPS ground for the two ROM chips later today. Thanks for your patience -DAN

Hi Gary, The price for 2 ROMS is 30 dollars. It is pretty light so U.P.S. ground is around 3 bucks. Send a $33 check or preferably money order to: Dan Zaid c/o The Lerro Corporation 3125 N. Broad Street Philadelphia, PA 19132 I'll send it out same day on receipt of money order, later with check. See Ya, Dan Zaid

You wouldn't happen to have another 2.05 manual sitting around in addition to the other one you offered?

#158052From: Dan ZaidJul 31, 1994 12:40 PM

Hi Kevin, I believe so. I've been telling people 15 bucks. I will hold a set for you. See you, Dan Z.

#158062From: Kevin ShaferJul 31, 1994 2:03 PM

Please leave your address so I can mail you a check. Thanx, Kevin

#158251From: Dan ZaidAug 2, 1994 5:38 AM

Kevin, I will send you the address and additional cost of UPS ground, probably around 3 bucks or less. Dan

Hi Kevin, The price for a 2.05 Manual is 15 dollars. It is pretty hefty so U.P.S. ground is around 5 bucks. Send a 20 check or preferably money order to: Dan Zaid c/o The Lerro Corporation 3125 N. Broad Street Philadelphia, PA 19132 I'll send it out same day on receipt of money order, later with check. See Ya, Dan Zaid

Hi! I just noticed this message, and was wondering if you're selling 2.05 manuals. If so, I am definitely interested if you have any others. Please let me know. –Steve–

#158078From: Erik FlomJul 31, 1994 4:32 PM

Dan: PMFJI, I missed the start of this, but if you've got 2.x ROMs, I'd be interested in buying a set. (I'm trying to sell an A3000 GVP Accelerator, and it _requires_ KS in ROM. I've already had one guy return the board because it turned out he had SuperKickStart ROMs [dev. ROMs which load KS from the HD.]) If you have a set left, I'd love to buy 'em! Thanks!

#158250From: Dan ZaidAug 2, 1994 5:37 AM

Hi Erik, I believe the A3000 uses two ROMS in an odd/even arrangement. I have 2.04 ROMs for the A2000. And we're talking a single ROM chip. I must also point out to anyone interested that if you own an A2630/30 or /20, or an A2091 that there are neccesary ROM updates to make them compatible with 2.05 Workbench and later. I'll go check on my 3000's at work to see what is up with the ROMs. See ya, Dan Zaid

#158404From: Erik FlomAug 3, 1994 1:09 PM

Alas, you are correct, the 3000 _does_ need two ROMs, so I guess the single chips you have won't work. 'Never mind….' :^) Erik Flom

#158435From: Dan ZaidAug 3, 1994 5:23 PM

Erik, Get back to me after CBM is officially dead and we are free of copyright violations and I will burn you some A3000 ROMS. It will be legal then right?? -Dan Z.

#158441From: Don Curtis/SYSOPAug 3, 1994 6:02 PM

Dan, NO!! Just because a company goes out of business does not mean that all their copyrights are suddenly void. Copyrights are part of their assets and as such end up belonging to someone. Don

#158444From: Jeff SchweigerAug 3, 1994 6:50 PM

Dan – The liquidation of CBM (actually Commodore International Limited), will not free up the Commodore copyright. The copyright on AmigaDOS will belong to someone unless it is explicitly placed in the public domain. Jeff Schweiger

#158467From: Erik FlomAug 4, 1994 12:32 AM

Given the number of replies, I'm sure you are going to be chided for making a public offer like that, so I'll avoid the retributions. :^) I probably won't need them anyway, since the latest buyer (some guy in England) will be supplying his own ROMs. Thanks for the offer, though. Erik Flom

#158578From: Dan ZaidAug 5, 1994 6:28 AM

I uh er uh… never mind. I hope CBM parts become available again so I can banish such evil thoughts from my mind. In the meantime I'll sit back with my hands tied like everyone else waiting for the A**HOLES at CBM to entertain thoughts of the enduser and not just the bidders in making the technology available again. -DAN Z.

#158591From: Dale LarsonAug 5, 1994 11:54 AM

Commodore really can't do anything but deal with the bidders. There are no resources avilable to them to help the enduser, or, to the extent that there are resources, their hands are tied legally.

Dan, At this point in time, the trustees have full control, not the folks at CBM. Don
