	I presume you mean 4.7k, rather than the 4.7 ohm implied by your
numbers.  Aside from that, the fact that the specified value is 4.75k instead
of 4.7k means that a 1% (or better) resistor is to be used.  The 4.7k
resistor could be anywhere from a 5% to a 20% tolerance, so - worst case -
you could have a value up to +/- 0.94k (940 ohm) off from what is marked,
compared to +/- 0.0475K (47.5 ohm) for the 1% resistor specified.  The fact
that the resistor was specified as 1% implies that the circuit *is* that
sensitive.  Nobody uses 1% resistors where 5%, 10% or 20% would serve - at
least if *they're* the ones paying for the resistors. :-)

	If you actually used 4.7 ohm, instead of 4.7k, the results would be
that much worse.  (What's three orders of magnitude among friends? :-)

	Go thee hence and get the proper resistor.  Try it.  If you *still*
have problems, take two asprin and go to sleep. :-)  Then we'll try again.

	Good Luck

Just FYI:  all recent versions of copyIIpc replicate Unix-PC floppies
just fine on 360K drives in IBM clones.  I find this easier than doing
the job on a 3B1.  If you need to do it (replicate any 3B1 disk) on
a 3B1, I think the following script will work.  I believe I wrote this
myself -- my appologies if it originated elsewhere.  Note: even though you
format the disk with no loader, the script reads and writes the entire disk,
including the VTOC, so if the loader is on the original, it should wind up
on the copy.

The 24 pin printers have much more than full 9-pin compatibility and LQ fonts.
As far as I know, there have been no upgrades of programs such as Picasso and
similar ones to use the high-dot-density (360 dpi is it?) of the 24 pin
printers.  I have yet to come across any TI-99/4A "desktop publisher" that
would give me a set-up menu with a choice of zillion different printers.
I think SIDE*PRINT (a program that prints Multiplan output sidways) came close
by considering Epson, Star/gemini, Okidata, Gorilla Banana (yes, there once was
such a thing!  5X7 pins, no true lowercase descenders, no graphics...  slow
but cheap in yesterday's standards), Radio Shack TRS-80, I think that's it.
And when people buy 24-pin printers and discover that no program would
fully take advantage of them, they feel that their computer is abandoned.
Likewise, I don't think there is any screen-dump program that gives something
better than a screen-resolution hard copy printout; even on a 9-pin printer
they look worse than a comparable result produced on a PC (perhaps I miss
something here, in that case I would appreciate a short tutorial).

I think the situation is even worse if one wants to use a laser printer.
Does anybody have ANY information on connecting one to a 99/4A?  The STANDARD-
configuration HP IIP is not Epson compatible, so most TI graphics programs
will not work correctly.

In my mind, the only way to keep the 99/4A alive is to upgrade the bread and
butter programs so they will work with the latest peripherals.

I too have that ST program that converts a 1st Word document to Post script.
What the program does is read in the file, and according to the configuration
you have set (i.e headers, footers, size, etc.), the output would be a 
post script file of the document.  I believe it can be done on a TI, but we
would need someone who understands how Post script works.

I don't need .TLs to get all 24 pins most of the time.  When printing
text, it's ALWAYS 24 pins.  For graphics, you use ESC-6 and ESC-7 to
enter the ANSI/IBM graphics modes, in which you get 24-pin graphics
characters.  No great mystery.  On the graphics, again, I see little need
for better pixel resolution.  Even a 9-pin printer does graphics well enough
for home use.

That's not true.  For word processing, I get the full 24 pins, and am able
to get really nice effects with the graphics characters.  TI-Writer's .TL
directive is all that's needed, just like with 9-pin printers.  As far as
graphics go, it still uses 24 pins because the 8-pin graphics modes are
implemented by firing three pins for each pixel.  You get better-looking
pictures.  As far as 360 dpi, there is little need I see for it.  Laser
printer support requires implementing PostScript or H-P's page language,
neither is particularly easy.  Laser printers with Epson emulations already
work without any more programming.

As an aside to my TI, I also have an Atari ST, and the other day I managed
to get my hands on a groovy little PD program that takes the file from First
Word Plus (a fairly standard ST WP) and outputs Postscript (either as a file
to disk or to printer). It seems as though this program merely concatenates
a generic postcript header file with an appendix containing the suitably
modified information from the WP file. I'm not familiar with the Postscript
language, but it seems as though it is kind of procedural.

My point is, it should be possible to do this with Ti-Writer files as well.

Maybe it has already been done?

Thoughts?

Joe, I've got this 32k on the 16 bit bus mod. It seems to have
de-bottle necked the computer by 35%. While in the 32k 8 bit mode the 
text scrolling by is slow (on line w/BBS) but in the 16 bit mode the 
text/ansi just flys by. As a matter a fact it has to wait for more! And 
For some reason I was able to connect my TI with an IBM (direct w/a null 
modem cable) and xfer text/data at 9600 baud with no loss of 
charactors/data!! So all the while I thought it was the RS232 with this 1 
bit thing that created the bottle neck perventing us using 9600..

I finally did a bunch of testing on the batch of hardware I got last
month. I have a couple of items I don't recognize, and wondered if you
could tell me what they are (or perhaps someone at TI could look up
the PWB number and tell me)...

item #1:

ASSY # 2535880-0001
PWB  # 2535881-0001
SCHEMATIC # 2535882-0001

this thing claims to be a "S/W PROTECT ADAPTOR"

so what is it? never saw one before. it was plugged into the backside
of the card cage, in the middle row.

item #2:

PWB # 2236591-0001

says "SIB" on it, but it't not the monochrome SIB. is it a color SIB?
it does have a battery, but it's the flat kind, not the long orange
one that the monochrome SIBs had. it has many of the same chips as the
mono SIBs, but is laid out completely different. I haven't seen a
color SIB since late '88, so I don't recognize this.

any ideas?

Just out of curiosity, why IDE and not a SCSI interface? I'm not familiar
with IDE devices - are there other things besides disk drives? I know that
there are many diffent peripherals with SCSI interaces.

- By the way, one does not need hardware flow control, unless you are either

SO. Your saying that if, say, I, was able to get Charles to release the 
source to Telco, that you would work it over for us all? That we might be 
able to use MNP 5 and .42bis tec.. with our TI-99/4A's???

Well Barry? Cause we need what Joe in a previous message was talking 
about. Up dated Telco, 24 pin/laser driver support etc... And it happens 
that, well, your a brain! We need your brain!
