It's not necesarry to get that violent. I had a similar problem once. Just
opened the 500-case and gave Agnus a friendly little knock :)

If you're going to get a VGA/SVGA monitor you'll need a flicker fixer unless
you're in possession of the ECS or an AGA machine. My best bet would be to
try and lay my hands on a Multisync/Multiscan monitor of which some can sync
down to the 15.5 kHz horiz refresh rate output of the 'old' Amiga display
hardware.

It should work. I'm uesing it with 2.1 and it works ok.
I think 3.0 is just 2.1 with the AGA support added.

At our Amiga lab we've had very good luck with Viewsonic monitors. While
our Viewsonic 8 is a bit out of your price range (20" monitor, $2200 bucks)
there are smaller Viewsonics which are as I recall reasonably priced.

The king of this application under 2.0 is ToolManager.  It *only* runs under
2.04 or better but I find it a lot more useful than I found MyMenu under 1.3.
ToolManager is available on Fish 752.

Yes there is! I had a friend who had the same problem; had a whole bunch of
C-64 novel files written in Paperclip that he wanted transferred to IBM via
 Amiga.
We used Disk 2 Disk from Central Coast Software. It allowed the old A1020 drive
to read C 64 files. I'll warn you that it only worked after we had the C64
drive aligned properly.  If you don't have a 1020, a rare animal these days,
 then
get GO 64!, which will hook your 64 drive through the paralell port. The new
version will, I believe, copy files.

There is one thing I don't like about it, it does not have a true 80x25
display mode.  You can get 80x25 (the 25th line being status) but the
24th line is cut in half and not usable.  Maybe it's just a poor choice
of font?  Can the font be replaced?  That one feature is what has been
keeping me from sending in the shareware fee and using it solely.
That's it's major flaw.  I've tried TERM and though it has potential
it's too cumbersome to move around in and change parameters with all
those submenus and subscreens.

3.0 doesn't.  You can do this with mungwall with the nametag option, but
be warned that running mungwall is a big performance hit, and also
increases the size of every memory allocation.

I think the term you are looking for is INSULATION DISPLACEMENT DIP
CONNECTOR  or IDC dip adapters . 

if you were in Canada I'd say go to your local ACTIVE electronics , they
have those . in the US you could try and see if you have a FUTURE
electronics store ( their US counterpart) 

the connectors are made by 3M if that helps any . PN 925120-40 . 


you could also find a CHIP with long pins , and doing a bit of surgery
remove teh broken pin off the IDC conector like this 
- cut the strip along the wire lenght to isolate it from the others
- remove the wire from the ppin it is pressed on
- remove the pin itself , you might want to heat it up a bit then pull
- take the IC pin and push it in the hole 
- use the soldering iron to push it into the socket until it comes
  out the other side and is even with the rest of the pins
- strip the wire you removed before
- solder it to the pin you just inserted .


primitive but I have done his to a few keyboard connectors on some
terminals and it does work .

I'm inclined to agree with you. Sierra certainly hasn't produced much
worthwhile stuff for the Amiga. Their releases were usually straight source-
level ports, or so it seems, because the Amiga versions of the games are so
INCREDIBLY lousy in terms of speed. The blitter? -"Some kind of super fast
graphics/data mover/logic unit? Naah, it's just a chunk of useless silicon."
There's how I think Sierra reacted when they first decided to go Amiga.
However, it's a little worrying to see a major MS-DOG software house leave
the Amiga scene, since it might coax others into following.

Do you hear/see the controller access the drive after about 3-5 minutes of
inactivity?  Then either the controller, or the drive itself is parking the
heads.  If you cannot tell, there is a program called SCSIUtils on wuarchive
which will let you send your drive a command to park the heads.

Personally I liked Ncomm - but Term 2.4 is - in some ways, better.
I do miss the script bbs I hacked out on Ncomm to have multiple users with
private mail though. :)

If you dont care - why are you responding to the email? :)

 Oh come on folks. :)  Some guy accidently thinks the program is pd or whatnot
and ask for a site location, and wouldent you know it if the entire month is
spent wasting bandwith with rantings of piracy and the like.
