 Ummm... one superpower got destroyed by this policy. It's too bad we had
to do it unilaterally. All *3* candidates admitted this was a good thing.

 Unless Clinton's TAX and SPEND policy is going to include budget
balancing CUTS, all it is going to be is TAX and BORROW without the
admission that they are running up a debt.

 Mind you, cutting Defense ISN'T going to balance the budget. Taxing the
rich ISN'T going to balance the budget. TAXING the middle-class has
always been the only way to balance the budget, and reduce the debt.

 It's got to come out of our pockets eventually. All we needed is a 
candidate that could blow enough sunshine up your nether passages to
make it happen.

 2/5ths of the American public said that. 2/5ths voted for status quo.
1/5th said there is another solution. Of course the Electoral College
ALL voted for sunny days....

 Zzzz.... I'm chortling, waiting for 1996. Maybe we'll be able to
balance the budget by the year 2000....

 p.s. People talk about balancing the budget and reducing the debt as
being two SEPERATE entities. They should be viewed as a series of steps
that NEED to be taken. One after another. And the INSTANT you stop 
having at least a balanced budget, you drive up the debt. Debt is BAD.
Even Donald Trump realized that. (Along with a few other lessons... :)

Well, offhand I'd say.. "it's broke!"  Seriously, I've never installed one or
used one, but I'd be willing to say that there's one of those "hidden tricks"
that "only your dealer would know" (you know, like the DF1: jumper) hiding
around there somewhere.  Either that or it's just plain broken... have you
been able to get good results with regular DS floppies?

Sorry, but the 1960 works terribly with the A4000.  When I played with the
machine at a local computer show, I tried the different video modes.  Any mode
other than the enhanced (A3000) ECS chips, and the screen was ALL messed up.
The
screen displayed either TOO TALL & TOO SKINNY or TOO SHORT & TOO FAT (Off the
screen).  Thinking that this might just be a problem with the 1960, the
Commodore rep said, "That is normal!"...  Sorry, but when I buy a monitor, I
would like to use atleast <90% of the screen, and not have part of the
workbench OFF the SCREEN.  I even tried the overscan adjustment under 3.0 to
correct SOME of this problem...with NO luck...

Not many choices exist...

One is the NEC 3FGx, if you can find one without convergence problems, or a
muddy screen.  I have a 4FG for my 486, and have deeply regretted it.  After 5
different monitors, I still have yet to get one that doesn't have problems.
So much for NEC quality control.

Another choice is the SONY 1403S monitor (my money goes here)

Hello,
	I have the MMR with the 030 and the 68882 and 8 megs of Dram on it,  
plus 512K of SRam, in addition to 4 megs on a SupraRam board, plus the 1 Meg  
chip Ram on my 1989 A2000 (B2000 model), and for some reason or another, it  
crashes on me when I run things like Cross-Dos, RSLCLock+, AShell, and a  
variety of simple PD stuff.  I can disable it and circumvent the problem, but I  
would like to not have to do that.  One thing I have been doing is copying the  
ROM to SRam for faster access (built in on the one command that does this all).  
Do you have any idea why this happens?  I get two kinds of errors when it  
crashes: Gurus and the software error-- task held thing with the requestor.  My  
friend suggested by the guru numbers that it was a CPU thing.  Got any ideas?
-Joe Solinsky
P.S. : please don't ask why I have 13 1/2 Megs of Ram.  It is a long story.

My thinking is that all this AA Sound Stuff and HD Disks ties up
(naturally) to Paula. CBM have not released an AA Paula, probably, I
suspect, because it is still under development... and guess what thay
are putting in it? Both the new (speculated) sound upgrade (16 bit 16
voice PCM... who knows?) __AND__ an upgrade to enable Paula to handle
HD Floppies at _FULL_ speed... this must be possible now with the
extra bandwidth such as that given to the blitter...

So folks, if my speculation is correct, for owners of true 32-bit
(databus) machines with AA chips, we could soon have a Super-Paula
giving us superb sound and full speed HD disks (let's face it, low
speed HD disks are a bit naff)...

All speculation, but stanger things have happened

(CBM may even leapfrog forward to a 3.52Mb disk (like IBMs 2.88), but
I doubt it! (although I hope to be corrected))

So hold yer horses, and see what happens!

If you have an ECS denise, you can display the VGA and Productivity modes

Have you had a look at the Cannon bubble jet printers?

They can handle the 360x360dpi that you are looking for, as they use bubbles of 
ink they will always be black, unlike ribbons which fade.

I believe the price is around the 230 pounds mark, but I am pretty sure that it
is under 300 pounds.

The print quality is as good as laser printer output, except that the dots are
a tiny bit bigger.

Cannon also make custom drivers for the Amiga, so you will be able to get the 
best output from the printer.

I hope that this helps..

Get your maths done!

To get 600 lines vertically and have low flickering 72Hz (that is NOT KHz,
funny boy ;-) ), you need at least 50kHz . If you have 70kHz vertically,
you can get approx. 810 lines @72Hz or 720 lines @ 80 Hz - or
1024 lines @ 56 Hz (if you have such a monitor, that means ;-) )
