(various drivel deleted)

I would suspect that the IDE interface is DMA, to retain adequate performance.
Based on this, C= only had to change half their interface, namely 1 chip.  The
Western Digital scsi chip has been replaced by an ide bus controller.  Based
on this (I don't have details) the disk system would be register compatible,
due to the Super DMAC chip remaining.  This would then only require software
changes.  The ide chip would not be that hard to design, because ide is 
basically a derivative of ISA slots, which are at the spastic level in terms
of technology.

At least they're optioning a good  SCSI card.

The next chunk of disks for the Aquarium database (through 730) will be out

months because KingFisher is getting pretty close and will do everything

Tim's column should have said "free of hourly charges" not "free of charge."
Portal is a commercial system and you still need to signup and pay the
monthly fee of US$13.95 to access it. Call 1-408-973-9111 to do so. 
The Customer Service reps will be happy to explain it to you.

If you join Portal, then you will be able to access it via your 
existing internet account, 24 hours a day, even at 9600 or 14.4Kbps,
with NO hourly charges. Just the flat $13.95/month. That's it. 
This gets you everything on Portal except the Clarinet/UPI news
hierarchy (additional $4/month) and our Internet Services menu..
but since you already have an internet account, then you should already
have access to FTP, IRC, etc on your existing account. 

Any other questions, holler in my general direction.

Joel, When I used the SPICE program, I always had to increase the

>Unofficially officially I've have heard from a good source that the Amiga 500 in the US will be discontinued and replaced with the 600 and 600HD (40MB) version.

In Europe I have so far seen only 600HDs with 20 MB disk.

Does anyone know what is inside the 600s ? Is it the same computer as
500 in a smaller case (and thus with worse keyboard), or is it better
or worse ? For me it seems strange that they still use the about ten
year old 68000 processor with the same low clock frequency as for the
500. I also think that a computer of the size of the 600 should have
been portable with its own screen. In that case a slightly old fashioned
processor and 20 MB HD would even had been acceptable. Now it still seem
to use the same clumsy external power supply as the 500. When will a
portable (= battery driven) Amiga be available ? The only reason why
the 600 still is of some interest is that HDs for the 500 are both
expensive and hard to find.

 Please ! Don't you read manuals ? 
 Urban D. Mueller is the maintainer of the sources for csh, please just send
 him a Bug-Fix, and he will add that to his sources and release a new 
 Version. DON'T even think to spread a self-made-bg-fix. Guess why the csh
 has so many Beta-Testers ? 
 You can do bug-fixes on your own, but don't spread them w/o 'permission'.

 To access Urban: umueller@amiga.physik.unizh.ch

 Anyway, Urban has started on csh V6.0, which will be OS 2.0 only and 
 arp-free, and will fix lotsa Bugs.
