	Is the ATI-Ultra realy fast ? How much ? If you used a vanila VGA
    before, how many times is ATI faster than a vanila in 800x600x256 ?
    I am using a Trident 8900 in my Zeos 386SX and it is realy slow in
    this mode.
	By the way, if you are using a Farenheit 1280 please send me your
    impressions.

We just did some testing of cards that are around here using the old
1.1 version of the PC Labs Windows Graphics bencmark program.  We did
an unscientific unweighted total of the time for all the benchmarks,
took the reciprocal, and came up with a performance number.  The
actual perceived perfomance may (and we find does) vary from what
these numbers indicate, but they are interesting nevertheless.  A
bigger number indicates better performance.  Here they are:

256 colors

Diamond Stealth VRAM, Diamond driver, 1024x768,		45.25
ATI Ultra, ATI driver, 1024x768				16.05
Diamond SpeedStar, Diamond driver, 800x600		 1.82
Trident 8900, Trident driver, 1024x768			 0.79

16 colors

Diamond Stealth VRAM, Diamond Win 3.0 driver, 1280x960	 8.45
Diamond Stealth VRAM, Microsoft S3 driver, 1280x960	 9.07
Diamond SpeedStar, Diamond driver, 800x600		 3.65
Paradise, Paradise driver, 800x600			 3.46
Orchid ProDesigner II, Orchid driver, 1024x768		 3.18

Sorry that the screen sizes are not uniform, but this is the best we
could do with the machines we have.  Playing with the Ultra it _seems_
faster than the Stealth (though the Stealth is very fast).  On the
Ultra if you move a window the repaint seems instantaneous.  On the
Stealth it does take some time, though less than 1/10th the time the
Trident does.

Hope this helps with your decision.

I would like to start windows with progman full screen on my desktop.

I'd say never say never, but I also say, never say complete. As WIN 3.1 refuses
for example to run apps for WIN 286, due to a missing realmodeswitch or some-
thing adequate.
Another thing: it is not a question who will survive (WIN or OS2), probably both
will, each in its own space. The word, that OS2 will kill WIN is just as good as
MS's claim, that OS2 is to die. In the long term I feel, that we will be able to
choose our OS again, just like today you can get MS,PC or DR-DOS, CONCURENT DOS
or whatever fits your needs. In many parts I will be a matter of taste, as both
OS's will try to be as compatible as possible.

The only SuperVGA driver available now for NT is a Video7.  NT is not
currently able to talk to a Trantor SCSI card, I do not know about the
Always Technology board.  Even if NT cannot talk to your SCSI card you
can copy a group of files from the NT CD-ROM disk to your hard disk
under DOS and then run the non-CD install program.

Procomm has always supported COM 1-3 the earlier versions would not

may very well solve this problem.  Procomm is a Shareware version

called Procomm Plus +, Although there are many good products out!!!!

X-To:         WIN3-L%UICVM.BITNET@pucc.princeton.edu

Vince -

Your response points *directly* to the problem: most people are not
aware of what NeXTSTEP is.  The public cannot be blamed for this.
The trade rags continually mis-report on it, NeXT's marketing
presence is weak, and Microsoft and IBM have so much inertia that its
hard for a new company to get any press, regardless of the innovation
and quality of their products.

NeXT has two color options 24bit color with 8bits of alpha (for
opacity) or 16bit color with 4bits of alpha.  The dithering in the
graphics system produces photo-realistic color on the 16bit system.
You get the Pantone color matching system as well as many other color
models to mix colors.  NeXT now has a bubble-jet color printer as
well.  Since the system is built on a unified imaging model
(Postscript on the screen, printer, etc) you get amazing results -
the ONLY WYSIWYG graphics system with no hassle.  NeXTSTEP 3.0 also
includes a 3D rendering kit (Renderman by Pixar) - and you can
combine 2D and 3D color graphics on the screen, printer, etc. just by
dragging and dropping.  That's why Display Postscript is so
wonderful!

I recognize that this list is not for such discussions, but it
appears that folks find it necessary to prop up OS/2 or NT here and I
feel that there's a lot of missing peices of the desktop OS puzzle
that need to be filled in.  I again apologize, and invite anyone who
wants to pick this up off-line to email me at:

Subject:486/33 vs 486/50(iDX2)
I have to make a decision between a 486/33 or a 486/50(iDX2) to be used as
a server in a token ring LAN. I feel the 33 would be a better choice since
both the internal and external clocks are 33Mhz whereas in the DX2 the external
clock is 25Mhz and may not be a good choice for a server or does the 50Mhz
internal clock more than compensate for that? The DX2 is cheaper by $200
so if the performance degradation of the DX2 is not of much concern due its
25MHZ external clock I would go for that. The server is mainly going to
used for database operations and as a print server. The token ring is running
4mbps.
Network gurus out there please advise.

I had the same problem with the same printer.  After trying nearly
everything I could think of, including re-installing both Windows and
WinWord, I deleted the entire WinWord installation, including the .ini
file (and edited win.ini to remove all references to WinWord), and
installed WinWord from scratch.  This fixed the problem, but I don't know
how or why.

I'm assuming the workstations are at least 386s, correct?  How much
memory on them?  If they have exactly 2 meg, you may have to specify the
enhanced mode switch on the win command line because some designs steal
memory for shadowing, leaving less than the whole configured memory for
DOS.  DOS needs to have at least 2 meg to use in order for Windows to
automatically come up in enhanced mode.

There is a utility called WHEREIS, which can be found in most BBS.  It keeps
improving, but the one that I tested allowed almost any kind of search (which
is but a directory), INCLUDING 'since' and 'before' switches.  Another approach
is to have a file list facility (like Windows own File Manager) to present file
s sorted by date (this is the approach I use most).  If you want to select a nu
mber of files between two given dates, just click on one of those files, move t
he mouse pointer to the other, and then Shift+click, and that selects all files
 in between.  Then you  can move, delete, copy, or do whatever you want to do w
ith them.  For plain DOS, you can look for shareware's StupenDOS, which is a ni
ce shell.  I think that even DOS shell provides sorting by date, or not?

I was wondering if anyone could tell be...me when the FALL COMDEX will
be?  I know that it is around the first week of November, and I would
like to attend it.  Also does anyone have a number to call to registar
for the show?  Or to call to get rooms??  Any and ALL info will be
great!  I can't wait to see what Microsoft has in store this time!

Um, I don't know what you mean here.  The drivers work great in enhanced
mode, which I use all the time.  Perhaps you're missing something else.
For some time I had trouble until I inserted the line  DEVICE=VTCPIP.386
in the [386enh] section of SYSTEM.INI.

Hi,

Windows is stored on the harddisk of my machine (c:\windows), but how can I
force Windows to read it's '.INI' files from a NFS drive that I have connected.

I use a lot of different PC's on the network and I hate changing the Windows
environment every time i change PC.

*Any* suggestions are welcome
