   I doubt it.  Cassettes recently got a reguvenation, from new DAT drives that
can store digitally on ordinary cassettes, and play old analog-written 
cassettes.  This is highly attractive to people who have lots of old cassettes
and want to still be able to use them.

   Read-write CDs have been promised for some time.  They are here already,
but only in very-expensive units that can only erase and re-write a CD a
very limited number of times, and only to special CDs.

   Even after read-write CDs do finally arrive, the manufacturing costs of 
such CDs will likely be higher than for CD-ROMs.  So I expect CD-ROMs to stick
around for a long while even after read-write CDs are available, especially if 
all read-write CD drives are rigged so that they cannot be used to copy
CD-ROMs.  The audio industry will almost certainly insist on circuitry to 
prevent read-write CD drives from copying audio CDs, and the software 
publishing industry may get on the bandwagon by insisting on similar circuitry
for CD-ROMs.  If so, CD-ROMs would continue to be very attractive distribution 
medium for software publishers.

  I have used the Sony CPD 1302 for several years.  To answer your questions:

1) can it use overscan?

  Yes.  I am using 724x482 right now.


2) How quickly does it change between screens of different synch rates?

  Less than a second.


3) How "sharp" is the display?

  0.27 mm.  Very sharp.


4) Are the controls easily accessible from the front?

  Not really.  The controls are in a recess in the back.


  I like the monitor, although it will not handle the highest AGA resolutions,
such as 1200x400.

If you don't mind turning off the radio, stopping the car, and hooking up
the steering wheel when you want to turn. Using a DOS machine is sort of
like driving one of the early cars, where you basically had to reassemble
the gearbox to change gears. Windows is like moving up to a Model-T with
a gearshift pedal on the floor.

If you're running UNIX you're not running a PC any more. It's a mini, no
matter what the hardware.

Right, manual transmission, with no synchromesh. Double-clutching through
the DOS and Windows emulators for ALL your apps.

	It sounds plausible; many people send me comments stating that
their modem is extremely sensitive. Basically, here is what I did:

	Replaced the entire phone line at 4am 8 days ago. Removed one
splice and two splits. 

	Replaced 2 year old serial cable with brand new serial cable.

	Tested it on 5 different modems.


	My results suggest that while each had some obvious defects, the
third Supra I received did not have 'defects' per se, but just had problems
that could be related to flakiness or sensitivity, as my other modems had
similar problems occasionally and not all the time, like the Supra. 
	However, today after not using the Supra for one week, I have had
two successful connections (incoming). Outgoing calls and faxes have always
been superior to my other 14.4k modems. Incoming FAX has not been tested yet
but will be due to a suggestion from someone with supra experience.

	Now, if this third one follows the same path as the first two, I
should begin to notice problems by tomorrow. However, if it doesn't, then
I will have to wait until next week as it will be down for the week anyway.
We will see what happens; Supra said they would call my BBS, hopefully
today, to try and connect. The question is now whether they will get the
auto-detect and whether they will get text or trash.

What I would like to see more than seeing "mainstream" apps ported to the
Amiga, is Amiga software developers making better mainstream apps.  Most
mainstream developers that have ported to the Amiga have done a poor job of it,
and often the software looks and acts poorly.  There are examples of good
mainstream Amiga apps, such as Final Copy II and Excellence!(in spite of FCII's
proprietary fonts, the output is just *too* good, and database apps such as
Superbase 4.  Spreadsheets especially suffer from a lack in quality on the
Amiga.  Also, if it is too difficult to create an "all in one" app(which is
*the* main reason why so many DOS and Mac apps suffer from horrendous code
bloat), a number of small Amiga developers could develop small, focused
miniapps that use Arexx and Hotlinks to link together extremely well.  This
would be much easier for small software houses than attempting to compete
feature for feature.  If a spreadsheet did only mathematical calculations, and
could export the output to a wordprocessor or a DTP package, which did the
formatting, mixing the output with a graphics package, the quality of Amiga
software as a whole would be greatly improved, and superior as a package to any
software by any dos/windows/mac developer.

   Thanks, but pnmtops in the PBMPlus package does not do all that good of a

good headers; most PostScript previewers and PS printers that I have tried
do not like files generated by pnmtops.

   Still looking for Amiga GIF2PS... It's got to be out there SOMEWHERE... :-)
