Subject:      A1200 wanters

                                A1200 IN U.S.
                               (maybe old news)

I've seen the A1200 at my not so local Amiga dealer (CPU in Indianapolis,
IN).  It had a hard drive inside, pretty nice system, check it out.

Lotus III - doesn't work on A1200, well not that I really tried (BOOT MENU,
etc..).  Speed Ball 2 - dies, Lotus II - dies,...more later.

A4000/A1200 owners:

        (NOTE: all options are in the BOOT MENU - ala hold down both mouse
         buttons after ctrl-Lamiga-Ramiga keys, not sure if A1200 has CPU
         cache, though.)

        PinBall Dreams works fine on the A4000, should work on A1200,
                       (ECS mode, works best).
        PinBall Fantasies - should work (comes federal express monday).
        Beast III demo works on A4000 (use PAL, ECS, No CPU Cache).
        AMAX II 2.5x (use ECS, Productivity)
        Budokan (use ECS, no cpu cache)
        XCOPY (use ECS, no cpu cache)
        Road Raider (PAL, ECS, no cpu cache)
        Tom Landry FootBall (no option needed, can't really recall)
        TV Sports BasketBall, (use ECS)
        SpaceWar (use ECS, no cpu cache)

Not sure if this helps anyone out there, but it sure helped me, if software
doesn't automatically work on A4000 or A1200 just use PAL or NTSC (depending
what country your from), turn on/off CPU Cache, use ECS.  This WILL not work
on certain packages, mostly GAMES!  Street Fighter II says it will work on a
A3000, but it doesn't, it bombs out like A4000 does when it boots it.

Ok, use disksalve to recover data from bad disks or to recover deleted
files and dirs. Or, if you know what the name of the file is and you
haven't written anything since you deleted it, then you can use a new
utility available on the latest fish disks that will recover a deleted
file. Sorry, I don't remember the name or the disk it is on. I believe
it is in the range of 760 to 780 though. Check the Wuarchive site or the
UX1 site.

I haven't tried the new one yet ,but I have always had great success with
the disksalve utility.

Yes, Terry, I read the startup file...but that was a LONG time ago...and I
didn't know even a *quarter* what I know now, so most of it was gobbledygook
because I couldn't relate it to anything I had run across.  I guess I should

I am at work and don't have the part numbers with me - will post them

I had 4 MB of fast and 2 MB of chip (err the 2 mb is the "video").
There were 8 chips total, and I am adding 8 chips.

I am not sure if this is what you want but :
A3000UX 100 MB hard drive, 25 MHz, 4 MB fast, 2 MB chip.
Just had the ROM upgraded to 2.04 (got the last ROM tower in the US!)
Will post the chip numbers off of the new 4 MB tomorrow ( or later
tonight if I get ambitious enough to remove the new RAM so that
my machine will boot ).  I do remember that the new chips are
Toshiba 70 ns and the original chips are NEC 80 ns...

One more data point, I am able to get the new chips to work alone as
the only 4 MB so I am certain that they are not bad.  I have also tried
one of the new chips with 7 of the old (with the new chip in the first
position) and the machine booted with every one of the new chips replacing
the first chip. So I am not sure how they could be incompatible.
(Did that make sense?).

As one of the members of my parish's council, I know for a fact that 
we don't turn anyone away from the parish grammar school (high school is
by competitive exam diocese-wide - but all that WANT to go are accepted)
for financial reasons.  Perhaps that is why the parish is $700 K in the
hole this year - which is how much was given to the school as a subsidy.
The tuition is $1200. a year, parents have to work 2 bingos the entire
year (and you would be surprised how many never show-in which case, 
$50. gets tacked on to the tuition--unless there is a good reason
(single parent, work, etc.) ).  If the parents can't afford the 1200.
 then other arrangements are made.  Many children (~20% of the
population) go for free.  Another 15-20% are at reduced tuition.  One of
the duties of the Catholic Church is to educate its young.  Being
childless, I don't burden either system, I pay property taxes to a city
where the public schools exhibit a 35% dropout rate, as well as 
support the parish schools.  But guess which one (public or private)
graduates more students that go to college and beyond at a cost of 50%
of the other???

I have read some of your posts but not all of them.  I am
sorry if I misunderstood your position.

I have not studied Operation Rescue in detail.  What I have read
about it discussed non-violent blocking of access to abortion
chambers--"putting their bodies between the killers and the
intended victims" as OR spokesmen put it.

John Brown was wrong to kill people who were pro-choice on slavery.
(Slavery was a matter of free choice.  No white man who was personally
opposed to slavery was required to own slaves.)  In fact, I have used
the Pottawatomie, Kansas Massacre and the Harper's Ferry Raid in
discussions with pro-abortionists, pointing out that just as his
wrongful activities did not justify slavery or discredit the entire
abolitionist movement, less drastic wrongdoing on the part of
some pro-lifers cannot justify abortion or discredit the right to
life movement.  The important question is not whether pro-lifers
are good people but whether unborn children are people at all.

                HAVING RELATIVES OVER FOR CHRISTMAS

"There was no room for them in the place where travelers lodged." --Luke 2:7

The innkeeper's rejection of Mary, Joseph, and Jesus has made us more aware of
the cruel rejection of the Lord which occurred throughout His life, culminated
in Calvary, and continues even to this Christmas day.  "To His own He came,
yet His own did not accept Him" (Jn 1:11).

The rejection of Jesus may have been worse than we think because He may have
been rejected not by an innkeeper, but by His own relatives.  The Bible says
"there was no room for them in the place where travelers lodged" (Lk 2:7).
This may not have been an inn but what we would call a "guest room."  Even
to the present day the peasants of the Middle East have a part of their home
in which they shelter their animals for the night.  The place where travelers
lodged would be the other part of the house.  For a pregnant woman to be
forced to have her baby in the part of the house with the animals is more
than the insensitivity of an innkeeper, but the cruelty of family members.

Christmas is especially for the rejected, even those rejected by family.
Christmas is a time of forgiving enemies, having mercy on those who have
hurt us, and loving unconditionally those who have rejected us.


Prayer:  Jesus, may I not reject You by doing my will instead of Yours.  On
this Christmas Day, I give my life to You and accept the grace to forgive
all who have hurt me.

Promise: "The grace of God has appeared, offering salvation to all men.  It
trains us to reject godless ways." --Ti 2:11-13

"The Lord bless you and keep you!  The Lord let His face shine upon you, and
 be gracious to you!  The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace!"
 --Numbers 6:24-26

Many people have the idea that what they do in the first minutes of the new
year has something to do with the kind of year they'll have.  Therefore, they
bring in the new year with partying.  They believe this will make it a good
new year.  Obviously, this doesn't work.  But, if we brought in the new year
by repenting, forgiving, praising, evangelizing, and praying, we would be
well on our way to a great "new year."

For almost 10 years, the Catholic Church has called us to begin the new year
with a day of prayer for peace and justice.  Most Catholics in the USA have
ignored this calling and have celebrated the new year with parties and bowl
games, just as those who don't know Christ.  Shouldn't our relationship with
Christ make us different than non-Christians on every day, and especially on
New Year's Day?

When Christians are distinctively different on New Year's, we will not have
just a modified rerun of the secularized old year, but a new year which will
lead to a new world.  Then God's promise will be fulfilled: "If anyone is in
Christ, he is a new creation.  The old order has passed away; now all is new!"
(II Cor 5:17)


Prayer:  Mary, pray for me to love your Son in a new and deeper way.  May I
         love Him as you do.  Jesus, I begin this year by totally giving my
         life to You.

Promise: "Mary treasured all these things and reflected on them in her heart."

Steven, when I taught history at a Catholic high school, I wouldn't show R
rated movies under any circumstances.  Fortunately, the World War II movies I
wanted to show (Patton, etc.) were all PG or G anyway.  For my Psychology
classes, however, I had wanted to show "Ordinary People," since the subject
matter was perfect for juniors and seniors.  I still solicited tons of parental
opinions before showing it.  Seventh graders are 12-13 years old, which is too
young for that intense a film, IMHO.

If you want a nice, informed argument, tell them that the MPAA 'R' was designed
so that parents went to the movie with their kids rather than just dropping
them off.  The entire rating system revolves on the concept of parental
guidance.  If the school is not seeking parental guidance, they're out of line.
And that's just the MPAA, not the Catholic rating.

Does your parish have a lay school board?  If so, I'd contact a member or two
and sound them out on this.  Normally a school board should stay out of
curriculum decisions, but whether or not to show 'R' rated moves at the junior
high level should be a policy decision within their purview.  I'd see what
other parents think about the issue, and if you have some direct support, go
make an issue of this.

priest at your local Catholic Church.  I am positive he will be
delighted to answer some of your questions and tell you about the
learning process that is offered to help you learn about the Church.
This is one of those situations where you let the Holy Spirit guide
you in the right direction, and it sounds to me like you are being led
in the direction of the Church.  Halla!


Have a blessed New Year,
Shalom,                                  Len Howard
