This is EXACTLY what it says:
"Why buy any other computer when an Amiga can emulate all of them?
 You hold in your hand the power to emulate virtually any personal
 computer made today.  Now, aren't you glad you bought an Amiga?
 (we thought so too!)"

Really?  The IBM can emulate an Atari?  Atari 8bit or Atari ST?
Where can I get the Atari emulator from?  I would love to give it a try.

More than likely, it was a joke!  I know MANY IMBers who have tried it
in vain.  All they got wad the "Insert WB" hand and disk from the 1.2
OS.  They tried many things, including copying the workbench files to an
IBM disk (as the IBM drives they were using did not support ANY other
format other than IBM disk).

The guy  who wrote CrossDos (Len Poma, Consultron software in Plymouth Mi.) is 
 working on a product to allow the Bridgeboard to access the Amiga drives.  As 
 I recall (from a buggy demo I saw about a  year ago), it uses the Janus IBM 
drive emulation drivers to  create a DOS file system on the floppys.  This 
product (the Ambassador) has been delayed several times by Consultron..  
Probably  because they are busy doing CrossDos for Commodore now.

This brings up an interesting question.  The SupraFaxModem is said to be

person wants.  The ZyXEL is not only said to have this, but the ROM upgrade
is already available and mine isbeing upgraded as I type.

Is anyone planning to write software for the Amiga that takes advantage

	Ok folks....

	got some info on getting EMPLANT running from Joe at UU.  I do
	not have EMPLANT, but I hope it will help someone who does.

	#1 - the battery is not required.
	#2 - Running the emulation from your HD (vs the EMPLANT boot disk)
	     requires that the program "Reservemem37" be in your startup-
	     sequence, near the beginning of the sequence.
	     Also, three new libraries (found in the EMPLANT Libs: directory)
	     must be moved to your system libs:. There is also one font
	     that must be moved to your system.
	#3 - The program "lowmap" must be run (I assume this is done at
	     EMPLANT startup).  This program does not function on A3000's
	     that use SuperKickstart.... which is to say, that the OS is
	     not in ROM.  One solution is to buy and install a 2.04 ROM,
	     or to wait for a fixed version of "lowmem" that is in the
	     works (ETA this weekend, but you know how that goes...).
	#4 - A 68020 or 68030 is required.
	#5 - An improved manual is "in the works", but is not getting
	     much attention right now due to the high workload in other
	     areas (probably answering all the questions not inthe the 
	     current manual :-).  Will be sent to EMPLANT owners when
	     ready.

	Hope this helps....

|> WHY ?

Well, in Byte magazine March 1985, Steve Ciarcia describes how
to do this.  It required a special modem chip and board which he
built and shows how to build in the article.  You will also need
the followup article in the next month's issue which has all the
software.  The modem chip he used was pretty high tech for the
time.  It was an 8250 and hayes modem all on one chip.  It could
send and detect touch-tone (tm) signals and one version of the
chip had a text to voice synthesizer.  The board also had audio
in/out lines so you could record responses or play any audio
source to the incoming call.  All in all, it was a cute project.

As for the why, I can think of several reasons: Automated polling
both dial-in and dial-out (obnoxious, please don't do this.)  You
could use it as a call up information service.  One of my
favorites is remote contol for electronics at home but that would
require a great deal of circuit building and programming.

I would recommend that you contact an Amiga Dealer, and ask him to order

Janus manual.

I do not think that the Enhancer Kits are available yet.

As to your comment about why Bridgeboard software is not PD, well
Commodore spent money developing the software, we should be entitled to
charge for the service. Also why didn't you get the software
from the person that you bought the software from, by your reasoning, there
is not reason for him to keep it.

My CC is charged at the 7th of September, TWO MONTH AGO. ;-(
The only positiv thing is, that the US$ was cheaper at that days.
1,44 German Marks for 1 US$, now 1,58 German Marks.

You can use a 68020/30/40 with the MAC II/x/cx emulation module for
EMPLANT.  You do *not* need an MMU, so EC030's will work fine.

I have recently come by a basic Mac, and I'd like to network it to my Amiga,
so that the Mac could mount the Amiga's hard drive as a file server via 
Appleshare.  Is this possible, and has anyone done it?

Cheers,

Bryn

There are no problems using Dos3.3 under Janus 2.1.
