#A4000 and YOU!
8 messages in this thread
Greetings,
I read Ben Williams feelings about the A4000–I am curious as to the rest
of your feelings about this machine. How many people out there have one,
and do you like it? What utilities have you found that support the AGA
modes, and how is the speed (ignoring IDE of course)?

All my serious software works on the A4000 but none of it really supports
the facilities of the AGA chip set.
The speed : ….. FAST
Greg :^)
Mark,
Ben was pretty much right on in most respects. 🙂
Stuff I have that supports the new modes: ProWrite 3.3, ADpro, PageStream
(sorta). Stuff I have coming that does: Final Copy II, ImageMaster x.xx,
ImageFX.
Speed? Blazing. Simply a wonderful machine.
Mark,
I saw a demo of the A4000 the other day and it really flies compared to a
3000. Very impressive.
'Course, _I've_ only got a sluggardly 2000 … sigh …

Dpaint4 does not open its Hires screen in NON-Interlace… it looks like
it does not support PROMOTION
Dpaint4, appears to make a solid request for a specific screen type.
The AGA will NOT promote a screen, if it believes the screen is suppose
to be interlaced, such as screens used with video.
There are utilities appearing that will force promoted screens, in such
cases.
The earlier Dpaint3, can be promoted.

DPaint IV AGA has been announced, and should be available fairly soon.
I just called EA this morning, and Deluxe Paint IV AA is scheduled for
December
