Can someone tell me what kind of plug Falcon have for the SCSI port.
I know it have 50 pins, but is it a ordinary or a mini delta ribbon
and is it male or female?

Ya... True... 
But, I don't see any PC's that use a Motorola DSP. Do you???

Do you think there will be a sound board available for the PC's 
that will cost less than a few hundred dollars that will be able 
to samples at 16-bit resolutions, with 44khz sample playback. 
Do you think anyone will make software for it like the Soundblasters
are??? By the way, the soundblasters don't have the capabilities 
to create 16-bit sound. It is all 8-bit DAC's... 

Well, you do get about 20 4-op FM voices, but I would rather 
buy a second hand Yammaha MODULE. I already have a MT-32 
with my Amiga 3000 and am thinking about getting a sampler 
with for my system. But nowadays I think about getting a lot of 
things... ;-)
 
I probably see the PC the way you do...
But, I guess we should just wait and see.. 
If not, we can get a PC on the side and wait for 
a Falcon. 

I heard it was supposed to come out in October.

If not, I'll forget it and go on and buy a 50mhz 486 with all the 
fixins. I'm not going to be foolish to go off and buy another 
CBM product which CBM prices high compulsively. 
Did you hear that when the Video Toaster became more famous 
CBM got cute and raised the price of the machine that the 
Toaster would work on ONLY, the Amiga 2000, from 1200 to 1700. 
The thing doesn't even have a 68030, and CBM has the nerve to 
do something as stupid as that. 

Well the pyschic advisors in Santa Fe are even more stupid, 
but CBM and them have a lot in common. They all try to insult 
our intellegence.

If you install a GDOS of your choice , you can use any (proportional)

I believe it means the type of connector you get on Sun SPARCstations, ie a

I've seen the genlocks for the ST, but they are 400 bucks, and plug into the

gcc 2.0 and above support templates.  This seems to be a bug in gcc in
general, not just on the ST.  The two bombs  are  probably a result of
cc1plus getting  a fatal error.   On  my  Sun, cc1plus  aborts with  a

> Nat!

As I just don't know anything about Falcon insides, I can't 
be more affirmative. But, assuming 64MB/s bandwidth is not
that easy. And your computation may well be completely wrong.

In fact, main memory (made of DRAM) is not straightforward 
to use: it is accessed it two steps, it has to be refreshed and the two
steps access may be partly reduced to 1 step:

The 2 steps are: 
select the row (using the half of the address bits (typically the higher half))
select the column (guess with which part of the address)

But once selected a row, you can select several column addresses in that
row: a full access is 80ns for 80ns DRAM, a 'half' access is about twice
as fast. Between each access, you have to wait for about half the time of 
the access (for the memory to 'recover')
So that a read cycle can't be shorter than 40ns+20ns=60ns with a
80ns DRAM (and without taking into account the row selection)
Which gives you an absolute upper bound on the bandwidth.
16Mhz means ~66ns cycle time: so that 64MB/s is inbound.

So it seems that 64MB/s is possible on localised access (typically
video). But the CPU has random access, so that unless burst mode
is used, the memory bandwidth is considerably decreased. Anyway,
every time the 'user' changes (from video to CPU, f.ex.) a row selection
is necessary (that's 40ns added)
If this 'page mode' (that's how it is usually called) access is used,
4 accesses are typically done each time: 120ns for the full access plus
3 times 60ns = 300ns for 4x4=16 bytes.
That gives you: 16/(300x10^-9)=53.33MB/s total bandwidth

I don't think you can go much further than 53MB/s in reality
But with 53MB/s on video, your CPU is just frozen !
That's why I don't think that you can get much more than 32MB/s 
video in normal conditions.(unless they use faster memories,
60ns or less)
You may have better graphics modes for displaying an image.
But that's about all: even for animation, the CPU has to do some work
(a lot of memory work in fact)

Anyway, with 4 grey levels, 32MB/s is about 128Mpixels/s
That's quite enough for me ! (about 1 million pixels)

     Also, can a falcon be used as a real time signal processor for musical

So what?  I'm more interested in a machine that runs *ST* software as I have
tons of it and am not about to spend hundreds of dollars buying identical
applications for a Mac.  Not to mention my printer is useless (how come nobody
bitches about Apple's printer options, i.e. $400 for a 9-pin d.m. printer is
nuts when I already have a 24-pin machine that cost less than half of that!),
etc.

>When Apple comes out with
>its PowerPC and lowers its price further, I see Atari hanging on for dear
>life 

And I doubt that Power PC will run Mac applications (sorry, if the converse is
a public fact, I haven't heard it) so Mac owners will not be any better off.

BTW, a recent survey showed that less than 1/3 of home PC users have any
software beyond a word processor, spreadsheet and database.  Since these are
commonly bundled with DOS clones and Performa Macs, the majority of users
really don't care about all the other stuff out there anyway.  Face it, the
world of PC users is not 100% C programmers. This newsfeed is skewed in that
almost everyone in here is from a subset of the population that is morte
computer literate than the norm. I build computers for a living, at *home* all
I care about is running applications (balancing checkbooks, writing letters and
reports, playing chess and MIDI stuff) not debugging code and patching my
system every few days.

The fact is I was about ready to spring for a Mega STE.  The Falcon is a better
deal and since I also play music semi-professionally, the audio capabilities
are a real plus. For someone like me who already has an investment in Atari,
the Falcon is the best choice.  Within a few years I expect the PC landscape
will look a lot different (Windows NT, Power PC, etc.) so why should I buy into
Macintosh which offers me very little, if anything, over the Falcon for most 
applications.  I'd rather stick with Atari a bit longer then migrate to a new
system three to five years from now.

[...stuff deleted ...]

Over the past three or four years, I have placed three orders with Toad
Computers.  The two hardware orders both ended up being returned because
of Toad-induced problems.  It cost me return shipping both times, but
in all fairness, I consider the resolution of the problems to be
acceptable (if not entirely satisfactory).

The software order had no problems (other than putting up with some
minor over the phone rudeness while placing the order).

All in all, I will not be in any great rush to order from Toad again,
but I have never been "ripped off" by them.

I have received much more friendly and reliable service from D&P
Computers (in Ohio, I think) and from E. Aurther Brown.

Now that MetaDOS is finally out (has anyone bought it, anyway?) and ICD's 
SCSIPro is supplied with drivers for anything in the SCSI world, we should 
be seeing more CD-ROM stuff appearing for the Atari line of computers.

The Falcon will NEED this medium for it's multimedia stuff. Almost any drive 
should be possible to hook up to it, and we will probably be seeing a plug-
and-play kit from PLI anytime soon as they've agreed to include Atari 
support for their SCSI peripherals.

What about discs then? I've had some mailing going on with Bob at Walnut 
Creek CD-ROM (cdrom.com) and suggested an Atari specific disc. He's 
interested, so I'll try to find useful stuff to put on it. The Archive at 
umich is obvious, as well as something from the German sites. As we also can 
use bitmaps/PS graphics, fonts, sound and .MOD files from other platforms, I'
ve suggested that the disc could be filled with stuff like this as well.

Does anyone have any more suggestions? Directions to where to get any of the 
discs that has been put out in the past for our pet machine? I know there 
should be a PD/Shareware disc out as well as one with clipart. Mail me!

I'd really like to see the media catch on on this platform as well, now is 
the time for CD-ROM!

I have a STOCK //Turbo BBS 2.1.9 system with some problems.
I'm looing for SysOps who have used the Sigs compiler in Tsysgen2
and had it work well (I can't seem to make Handles only bases).

I'm also having problems interfacing lharc201(x) into the system,
the examples say to use lha201.ttp, but so far... nothing ends up in the
tmp directory.... it goes to the BBS directory instead!

Odd.....

If you're a sysop, and can reach me email, please do.
