	Jim Drew said he would send an Emplent board to someone who could
review it publically and prove it is real. He suggested sending a board to
Harv Laser, and we have heard nothing posted to this group regarding that 
from either Jim or Harv, both of whom read this group.

	I am upset that Emplant is not out. And when it is out, I will 
still be upset. Too many software and hardware companies have made promises
that they did not come through on. It isn't hard to send out a test
board to have it reviewed publically. In fact, he could FED EX a board to
someone by 11am Monday morning, and we could have a review out on all 
USENET sites by Monday night. But it probably won't happen.

Ok, I don't know if it's the right place to ask, but I'd appreciate
any help about my problem...

I have a Mac IIsi and recently I purchased an Amiga 600. I would like
to transfer files (mostly ASCII) between the two computers. With the
Mac I can read/write/format DOS type disks but how can I read them on
my Amiga ? 

I know there are some stuff on ftp which allow to mount DOS disk for
the Amiga but since I access ftp from a SparcStation I see no way to
get the program to my Amiga. On my Workbench disks, there is no more
utilities like Dos2Dos...

So, how can I do ? I would appreciate any help you can provide...

Thanks a lot

Yvan.

On the Emplant - everyone keeps complaining about the lack of advertising, but just recently, in virtually all the Future Publishing Publications that I could get my hands on, I have seen advertising on it - in the same way that they advertise Sybil...

BUt just one question: Sybil is advertised as "eliminating the need for the cartridge"; isn't that where the LEGaLLY mandatory ROMs plug in?

Mac stuff for sale (very reasonable I think)

I know that comp.sys.amiga.marketplace would be a more appropriate
place to post this but then comp.sys.mac.??? might be even better.
Yesterday, I found a Mac Classic next to my apartment house garbage
dumpster. I don't know what is wrong with it except it had been
dropped on the rear left corner. (Case was damaged there) Also there
were horrable scratches on the front of the case like it had skidded
on pavement. CRT was cracked. Never powered up to see what would happen
due to CRT condition.

I extracted the Quantum 42LPS SCSI drive for my own use (haven't tried yet)
and was going to chuck the rest when I thought that some other amigoid
may want the ROM. Not really sure if you emulator guys even need them 
anymore but here goes:

	Mac Classic ROM:                  (Computer was manufactured
		T 341-0813 JAPAN                 March 1991)
		TC534200P-F749
		9105EB1

	Mac Floppy drive:		  (Looks to be in excellent shape,
		Sony 2MB		   but I have no way to check it.)
		MODEL MP-F75W-01G
		(with bracket for HD)

	Mac Classic CPU board:
		APPLE COMPUTER INC (C)    (Wow a whole computer on a board
		1990 820-0390-03           SCSI, floppy interface, serial
		630-0390-03		   printer, network, display chip,
					   1 Meg memory. MC68000FN8)

	Mac Classic Serial Number:
		Will saw out the region of the
		chassis with the serial number
		(tell me if this is illegal)

	Mac Classic Power Supply and CRT Driver Board:
		Don't have the numbers handy (out in the garage)
		Don't ask for the CRT as it is kaputt.
		Case is kaputt too.

Now, you may ask yourself what I am asking for these items. Here is
the deal: I don't guarentee any items to be functional, but have no
reason to believe they aren't. You will have to send me a self addressed 
box, big enough to hold the wanted items and one or two cool items
for me, (amiga related or just interesting stuff, from far or near) 
and I will place the item(s) you want in said box and mail it. Please 
note that you need to supply all postage or send extra cool item. You 
have one week (give or take a day) to make your offer, after that first 
to ask and pay postage takes it. (OR it goes in the garbage if no takers). 
People who live in the Portland Oregon area may want to pick it up in 
person if you are selected. If you have a need for the CPU with ROM (etc.)
please state that in your msg. I will respond to each and every offer
provided my mailer cooperates.

I have followed page 57 and 58 letter by letter to get my MS-DOG ASCII
files moved to the Amiga side.

I apparently have a bad copy of PCDisk because MS-DOS does NOT recognize
the commands AWRITE or AREAD.

According to the manual, all commands are to be typed in the PC window,
not the CLI window.

Any clues as to what is wrong?  I have from harddisk and from floppy to
get this to work.  The previous owner says she was able to do it, but
she can't remember how.  She said she "clicked on something".  I assume
that was PCDisk.

I am running 2.04 but my harddrive is still partitioned under 1.3 because 
I was told that the XTBB would crash if I reformatted under 2.04 unless
I upgraded my software (which my dealer doesn't carry).  

I could not get the method outlined in the manual to work even when I was
STILL 1.3 only. 

This is the 2088 XTBB for the A2000.

Can anyone help?

Thank you,
Crystal

	Do you have any extended memory?  If you are running Windows 3.0 then
	you must.

	I am having a problem with my A2286 bb where it doesn't seem to work
	with Turbo C++ 3.0.  Turbo C++ requires 1mb extended memory and

	to be locked when using the Turbo C++ IDE (editor) all I get is beeps.

	The mouse works and the Compiler works fine, just the keyboard
	interface to the IDE editor.

	Actually, even on PCs, there are sometime problems with getting
	mice to work, and keyboard problems.  Usually, from my experiences,
	change to another mouse driver fixes the mouse problem, also the
	'character' problem supposedly can be fixed by trying a different

     Yes, the 386sx Bridgeboard is out.  I received mine on August 8 -
one of the first in Western Canada, I'm told.  It seems to work fine, 
but I haven't done much to seriously test it (any suggestions?)
 
 
 
     One oddity:  An older game, "Adams Backgammon", ran fine, but 
froze the bridgeboard on exiting.  PCReset would start to reboot only 
to refreeze while loading DOS (temporarily freezing the amiga side).  
Only rebooting the amiga side would get things back to normal.  Of 
course this same game confounded both PCTask and IBeM - I haven't 
checked to see if it will crash a PS/2.
 
     For those still looking for Janus 2.1, there was a posting right 
here giving the part numbers to order:
 
1)  P/N 368377-01  (BridgeCard Manual Addendum)
2)  P/N 367830-01  (PC Program Disk)
3)  P/N 367831-02  (Amiga Program Disk)
 
My own Janus disks have differing part numbers: 367846-01 for PCJanus, 
and 367831-01 for AmigaJanus.  Maybe that reflects 3-1/2 inch PC disks 
(instead of 5-1/4) and a slightly older AmigaJanus?  (My Janus.library 
is version 36.83 dated March 4 of this year.)

  Actually, when FTPing to ftp.apple.com, the machine must be able to bind
to a valid IP address. If you aren't FTPing from someplace with a 'valid'
IP address, it will refuse the connection. It will also refuse connections
outside of the United States (supposedly.. it makes sense anyway, since 
licensing is different in foreign cases). Don't forget to get DiskCopy 4.2
to reconstitute the .image files!

I'm counting on it.  :-)

I see your point...  That would be pretty fast.  You might be able to get a
decent 25 MHz 386 speed out of an '030 based machine.  Some of those 40 MHz
386 systems fly, though!  If I were to buy an IBM compatible, I'd buy one of
those.

I am guessing, however, that some 80x86 instructions would not map to just one
680x0 instruction -- it might take two or more.  This would obviously slow
down the emulation.

One thing that I've never been able to find out about hardware PC emulation on
the Amiga (specifically A500 - targeted devices, not bridgeboards), is do any
of them do 16-colour EGA emulation?  I've read through a number of adverts,
and have found that the ones that do say anything say that they do it
"monochrome."

Am I really to understand that the emulators such as ATOnce only do
black-and-white EGA?  It seems ludicrous to me that they wouldn't support a
4-bit-plane laced screen, even if the bottom fifty scan lines were unused.

What's the scoop?
