or not (mostly not, right now - never HAVE been "very" interested).

since they seem to be *almost* synonymous in effect.

I wonder why we have stopped using oplog. Kind of separates

the more personal "staff" messages from the stuff left by the

I'm confused - "reviews of the ddials"? "W/B"? "Rocco"?
|
|
At any rate, I believe you are talking something about the list of
|
|
BBS's that CBBS RE (emphasis on "RE") RE-prints. We are not the source.
|
|
It is like a syndicated column - the columnist controls the contents,
|
|
not the newspaper it is printed in.
|
|
I WILL out of "social responsibility" delete, almost immediately, any
|
|
number which is mis-printed so that it might wake someone up in the middle
|
|
of the night - having had my own VOICE number published many times, I
|
|
"sympathize". But I am NOT the source for MAINTAINING the list. That is
|
|
just more effort than there are hours in the day for me to do. If this
|
|
msg were time stamped, you'd see it was entered at 1:00 in the morning,
|
|
and my alarm goes off to start the next day at 5:50.
|
|
Thanks, I know you mean well, but address your comments to Stillwell
|
|

sorry to bug u about the numbers, i understand what u mean about giving

out numbers and being called early in the morning.well, try this number
|
|
989-4600 at 300 baud. at around 10 pm (if u can get it) it is a diverse dial

single chip for the XT. KNow anyone wanting to upgrade their AT?

ARRRRGGGGHHHH!

Remember what I said about the Boca ram expansion board? Forget it.
|
|
After working with the tech reps for hours and trying everything we
|
|
could think of, the board (8meg Boca board) DOES NOT WORK.
|
|
|
|
I'm going back to Wholesale Computer (in Wheeling) on Monday to get
|
|
my money back. The salesman assured me he would have a check waiting.
|
|
After all the hassle and number of weeks, I hope so. (I'll let you
|
|
know)
|
|
|
|
I checked several manufacturers and settled on an Everex 10000. It is
|
|
a LIM 4.0 10meg board that uses 1x1 drams. It has all of the features
|
|
of the Boca board and was guaranteed by the Everex reps to work.
|
|
|
|
Maybe by this time next week, I'll truly be a happy camper. -Rog

Any ideas where to get a copy of MODEM7 or XMODEM for CP-M running on an
|
|
old Heath/Zenith H-89 computer running CP/M with H37 Soft Sector controller
|
|
and dual 5 1/4" 360K floppies? Suggestions would be welcome. Also, any
|
|
ideas of where to get WordStar or DBaseII that would run on that machine
|
|
would also be welcome. I am willing to buy the software.

Thanks

I know someone who MIGHT want the chips but he is on an extended

vacation off in the world of travel now. Won't be back for maybe

4-6 weeks. There is always the CACHEFEST the 20th at DeVry!

to WARD CHRISTENSEN re: R/3 1/2 " DRIVES
|
|
|
|
The tech info on the 3 1/2 disks is enough to make me stay away
|
|
from MEI for medium quality disks. there's are rated at 600.
|
|
I think I got in over my head with this 386. Now I have to read
|
|
whatever I overlooked on extended memory. The docs are OK
|
|
but that is if I want ot run software for adding stuff. I need
|
|
a RAM disk. Might have to see if I have one of those for
|
|
extended memory in my files. I have 2 meg and am totally
|
|
confused with using the rest of the 1st meg. I almost would
|
|
use one of the pgms to raise the 640K to 7XX+K but don't
|
|
want to screw up the memory for the VGA or programming.
|
|
What a mess! The computer runs so fast I am MORE lost. How
|
|
long does it take to see the blurrs on the screen as meaning
|
|
something?!
|
|
Would a program allow me to merge the rest of the 1st meg
|
|
with some of the 2nd meg of memory for a RAM drive? What I read
|
|
now seem to imply it has to be chnaged over to expanded memory first.
|
|
Guess I HAVE to get to the CACHE FEST and see what I missed out
|
|
on for months.

to ALL re: DISKETTE QUESTION
|
|
|
|
As long as everyone is talking about the technical aspects of diskettes,
|
|
I have a question to pose. But first let me illustrate what I've tried:
|
|
1. Format a DS/DD disk to 360K - Works fine, like it's supposed to.
|
|
2. Format a DS/DD disk to 1.2M - Works fine.f* (90% of the time)
|
|
3. Format a DS/HD disk to 1.2M - Works fine, like it's supposed to.
|
|
4. Format a DS/HD disk to 360K on 1.2M drive - Track 0 bad, disk unusable
|
|
5. Format a DS/HD disk to 360K on 360K drive - Works fine
|
|
6. Format a 3.5" DS/HD to 1.4M - Fine, like its supposed to
|
|
7. Format a 3.5" DS/HD to 720K - Track 0 bad, disk unusable
|
|
->Why does track 0 seem bad to the computer on HD disks when formatting
|
|
them at the low density. In addition, when using a utility like PCTOOLS
|
|
to format differf*ent densities, it seems that the error occurs on Head 1,
|
|
but Head 0 is fine (for the first track). Any ideas?
|
|
dup. chars.
