#A2088 software revs.
4 messages in this thread
Hi all
I've upgraded my machine to 2.1 with a 2.05 rom, but the software with my
AA2088 Bridgeboard is stuck at the 1.2 level. Are there upgrades available
somewhere either from C= or shareware?

Bob,
Yes…there was a 2.1 upgrade for the BridgeBoard. My memory (it's
been a while) was that dealer's were permitted to copy the upgrade software
onto a user's original BB software disks (but not the MS-DOS…just the
Commodore programs…both Amiga and MS-DOS side).
If you can find a dealer…it would be worthwhile to see if this is
true and get the upgrade. I have no idea if they'd have any new packages
available.

Don & Bob,
I got the Janus 2.1 upgrade by mail order, I think from Software Hut or DeVine
(I don't remember which). Sorry, can't remember the price either but there was
no stipulation about them needing my original disks etc.

Steve,
right…if you pay for it…there's no question. But I believe
dealer's were permitted to copy the new software onto the old software disks as
part of a free upgrade. In other words, if you had the old software, you could
get an upgrade for free if you could prove you had the old software (the
disks). Otherwise, you had to pay for it.
That's my memory…but I could easily be wrong…it could have been you
had to pay for it no matter what. It's been a number of years since I've dealt
with it.
