Absolutely. Commodore has NO excuse not to advertize for this one. If they
do it will indeed attract a LOT of attention, since the whole show will be
a sort of ad for the Amiga. Of course, why didn't they advertize for that
"Nick Arcade" show? Oh well.....

Subject:      Re: Babylon V

   Babylon V is being aired in January 1993 (about a month from now)
on a new 'network' called PTN. Most of the stations airing BV have
signed on to carry a three program package which includes BV,
'Kung Fu - the Legend Continues" and a third program whose
title escapes me. I doubt that any of the stations are
affiliated with any of the Big 3 networks. In the NYC area
the shows are being carried on WWOR ch9 - an independant.
   I think an Ingenious Ad campaign for C= would be to
show the actual special effects from BV being generated
on an Amiga. Imagine, Just about every Trekker and SCI-FI fan
in the country watching that. They would all go out, Buy an
Amiga, and try to top any special effect or animation they
saw on the show.
   We'll Sell A Million of 'Em.

Yes for version 2.2.2.  I don't know about other versions.  As part of readme
there is an explanation of what to do.  If I remember correctly there should be

Yes, it is true, but there are mechanical problems. The drive would
be stuck about an inch above the table! If you are able to solve
this problem, it should work. BTW, every A500 controller should
work this way. Don't try to connect the controller upside down as
some mail's said some months ago. I am working with a Tiny Tiger that
is connected to the parallel port, so I haven't tried this!

        Actually, it does support overscan.  Just because you seeing a black
border doesn't mean it doesn't support overscan.  My workbench is 724X476--
that is overscan (640X400 is not)-- thus the monitor supports overscan.  The
border is something mac and ibm users have had for years on their monitors for
years and we C= users are just not used to it.  With some monitors the border
is worse than others as they are tweaked to the typicl VGA/SVGA output.  Anyway
the corner and edge space lost is often best lost as divergence and distortion
is worst out there anyway.  It only becomes important in certain video apps
To the common user, it makes little to no difference once used.

        ->dave

PS  You can argue that the monitor itself doesn't support overscan as it shows
black but often those that 'support overscan' are meerly tweeked to the output
of a given system or additional fascia is used to cover the edges so that
a 14" monitor really becomes a 13" viewable (as with the diamond scan 1381).

Ras, I'm surprised at you!  Being thankful for any software company's
decision to *DROP* the Amiga has got to sober you up some.  Albeit, there
have been some companies that we have been glad to get rid of: WPCorp..,
but Sierra-OnLine is probably the most productive I*M game producer so far,
and to have them announce that the Amiga is no longer a viable market for
a _game machine_<place disgusting noise somehting like a *harumph* here....>
, means that they see something in the 256 out of 256,000 machines that
can't be accomplished on a 256,000 out of 16.8 million machine.  This is a
*bad* thing.  With their release of Robin Hood, I was duly impressed(as
opposed to when the _ported_ the first few Kings Quests and Leisure Suit
Larry type games...not impressed.  Moral:  Applauding someone's decision to
tell us that our superior machie is inferior in the ONE "niche" that people
have ALWAYS agreed that we(tha Amiga and its users) RULED in, is quite
disturbing, and is a grand leap backwards if other companies follow suit.
I think that I might have to have a word with Sierra-OnLine, if anyone
needs their address just to gripe at them(noth that I truly CARE that
Sierra-OnLine, as a company, dropped the Amiga line, it's that a company
that could have been a valueable market share, dropped the Amiga), I should
have it after break(the box for Kings Quest 4 is at home on a shelf
collecting dust from when I actually _used_ a PC(shudder)).

Oh, well.....off soapbox...I get a headache when I think too hard this
early....

Yes, I have a friend who owns Future Sound and VCLI works fine with it
in Generic mode.  I have Perfect Sound I and the VCLI generic mode does
not seem to work correctly with it.  I plan on upgrading to a better
digitizer soon.  I was thinking about getting GVPs DSS but GVP (as the
VCLI author said) does not give out technical details about how to
program the thing so VCLI can't directly support it and AudioMaster
probably won't be able to either, so I'll probably end up getting
PerfectSound III.

GVP and NewTek are funny that way I guess.  I don't know what the big
deal is about providing info that programmers would like to have.  I'm
sure GVP's software that comes with the digitizer is good, but I have
had AudioMaster for years and I'm not willing to give it up.

NewTek's DigiView gave me similiar problems (after I bought it I found
out).  I wanted to get from them the specs for how the mouse port was
used to talk to DigiDroid so that I could use those signals to
automatically control an electronic color splitter.  They would not give
it to me.

  Yup, the only Tv adverts I ever saw for the Amiga was from a local
dealer. Never one by CBM, but i did see those 'things' about three years
ago about Christmas time that were supposed to make the Amiga interesting.
You might remember them, Robert Madden, basketball stars, Astronauts,
etc. stop by to run a program on some high school kid's Amiga A500...
The commment outof my relatives was 'oh, you mean it does exist beyond
the one you have?' But they didn't believe the premise of people
coming to some kid's room to do those things... DJ.

        I've had this prob. ever since I got my amiga (500) and I've found
        it is somehow connected with just about every chip on the motherboard
        (a hard-drive interface and printer makes it worse!)  Some
        success with covering the whole computer in aluminium foil (but a
        tad impractical!).  The only solution is to put the whole
        motherboard in a metal case (like the IBM's)... this cuts the
        problem considerably.  Otherwise you will have to live with
        angry neighbours (say its' CBs') and Commodores' obsession with
        cutting corners (plastic cases!).


        PS. The metal cover inside my A500 reduces the RI a bit, but not
            much.

        PPS. If you think TV is bad, try AM radio!
