Hi Doug, My Pecan wouldn't boot. Neither of the disks are recognized by workbench as having default icons. Both are named (per Workbench) PSYS. Should one of them be named Boot?

Sounds like you got two of the same disks! One (I believe) should be called p-system boot. I suggest taking them back to the dealer or giving Pecan a call. I am waiting for some neew disks myself.

Doug, Eli Wollner on MUSUS (pcs-55) confirms that I should have one disk named BOOT and one disk named PSYS. I got my disks directly from Pecan, and from the sounds of it, they are having exactly the sort of "new release" problems most companies have. You were missing Setup, I think. How about Library? Will you have any trouble making units? Do you have any idea what codes to use for the Amiga-specific GoToXY? <grin> I am looking for Client Billing packages for a psychoanalyst (10-15 patients) and an architect (20 – 30 clients). Do you have any leads?
