Whether or not we believe him, UPS has *LOTS* of packages from UU that are
being delivered AS I AM WRITING THIS!  I just called UPS and got confirmation
that the package belonging to the UPS# that UU gave me is to be delivered to
my front door step this afternoon!  Now, I don't actually know what's inside
that box, but I doubt UU would go to all the trouble/expense of sending all
of us Emplant buyers a complimentary package of "thank-you-for-waiting" roses!

To those that still claim the Emplant doesn't exist...
our local dealer just recieved one today.

The documentation seems a bit brief, but it does exist.

I will try to install the beast later tonight and test it out.

This was the basic version of the board (I.E. no serial or SCSI), but there
is room for the additional chips on the board.

There is a cute little message on the back side of the PCB that says 
why buy anythine else if you can emulate it with an Amiga... or 
something to that effect.


Can't wait to test it on the A4000!!!  ;-)

I was just as skeptical...so I called UUI and I got the UPS shipping
number of the package that they sent me.  Then I called UPS and
checked on it.  Well, I know one thing for sure, they put a box of
something in the mail for me ;')

Hi!

I just got the 2.1 janus upgrade for my 286 BB.  Everything installed
okay, but when I try to use amouse I get the following message:
	MOUSESERVER not found.

Now the addendum states that the mouse server should load on demand.

When I try to manually load the mouse server, two things happen
(depending on the sequence)
	1) A message appears in the title bar saying that the port 2
           is active.  Unfortunatly, the keyboard input to the PC
           window is dead.
	  This occurs when the server is loaded after amouse attempts
           to run

	2) Janus library pointer not found!
	  This occurs when the server is loaded first and then amouse
           is run.

I have: A3000/16  2.04 ROM
	286 BB
	enforcer being run before binddrivers.

Any ideas?  Thanks for your help.

	It is not just UU, AT&T -- a good sized company -- announced
the video phone to be shipped last June.  Now they are saying late '93,
or 18 months later (I bet it won't work ever).  Sure you should be pissed
off at UU, but you did not see me send in money.  I generally wait until
I see something work first.  Even if it did start shipping, it may not ever
work well. 

	The best reason for announcing it early is to kill AMAX-II sales.

Well, I guess we can break out into a chorus of "Yes, he did -- no, he
didn't" at this point, but my memory is pretty good. Too bad the S/N ratio
of this area is so high. Otherwise, I might still have the message in

If it is shipping great. If not, I won't be suprized. If it turns out to be

Yes, it was a joke.  All it had was a very small executable with the 1.2 ROM
image appended to the end of it.  The executable code just popped a picture
on the screen, and whirled the disk in the drive.

Actually, the emulator does exist, but you are correct, we couldn't
get it to work.  The emulator runs 1.2 but it will only read from the
A: drive on the computer which happened to be 5.25..... I eventually
got a copy of WB 1.2 on an Amiga 5.25.. but I we still couldn't get it
to boot.  I seriously think the thing was a joke - I don't think the
emulator could read an Amiga formatted disk (more data?) - dunno, but
I wanted to see it running ... to see how slow, etc.. it was.. Oh well
- Anyone else get that thing to work?

That's not really fair.  When you kludge in a machine-specific (Amiga)
hardware feature into a different operating system, I don't see how you
can follow the rules.  Keep in mind that the Mac OS doesn't know that it's
running on non-standard hardware.  I found the program rather amazing,
although it doesn't work with Think Pascal 4.0 or the Think C 5.0 debugger-
but hey, I bet those programs don't "follow the rules" either!!

I suspect you're thinking of the Bridge Drive Commander+, which has been

I have just received the new version of the KCS software (version 4.5) and 
moved from a perfectly working board the a board that does nothing.

My system setup is A500 rev 5, GVP HD8+ 52mb with 2mb. 

When I try to load the software *sometimes* it does the memory count, other
times it just locks. At first it used to load upto the DOS prompt so I
thought it might have been my AUTOEXEC.BAT or CONFIG.SYS so I renamed them. 
This had no effect so generally I'm stuck.

CAN ANYONE HELP ?
