I would like to make an offer on the Amiga 2.1 version of Unix that you have for
sale.  First of all, is it one that was sold as a stand alone or is it something
that was intended for an A3000 that he still has?  Are all docs included?

My offer.... $400 and we split shipping


If interested, call (512)650-4884 evenings or leave a message.

There's a FAQ in misc.forsale.computers.  You might want to take a look at
it.  I have dealt with quite a few people on comp.sys.amiga.marketplace,
and I haven't got burnt (yet).           

(thanks for the people who have dealt with me though!)

I'm persoably VERY Pleased with Briwall.. I Just bought a new System from 
them.  When I got the computer it had a couple of gliches but they called 
me and Stayed on the Phone with me for a couple of hours till I got 
everything worked out.. I also received a couple of phone calls from them over t
the next couple of weeks, They were calling to make sure that My system 
was up and running and to see if I had any questions or problems.  I was 
also impressed by the fact that they sent me a nice card thanking me for

  I knew that already.... ;-)  What I wanted to know (but did a poor job of

To a large extent, this is what the GNU project is doing (and other related
projects): getting lots of people on the network together to create large,
commercial-quality products.  The only difference from what you seem to have 
in mind is that GNU stuff is freely distributable: the programmers mostly
work for free.  (I say "mostly" because some do get paid, i.e. by people
or companies who want specific features and are willing to pay programmers to 
implement them.)

And there's a lot to be said about the free software concept: I haven't seen
any other method of distributed programming so successful.  (I'm talking
about worldwide distributed programming, not just distributed among several
teams in a corporation...)  It's definitely easier to arrange things when
you don't have to worry about who pays for which versions of what, and which
programmers get how much, when, in what currency, who you trust to distribute
profits, who provides support and handholding, etc.  Of course, some 
programmers may not be willing or able to work for free, but many are.

If you want to really pull in a crowd of enthusiastic programmers, work on
portable programs.  For example, you want an excellent word processor to be
available for the Amiga.  Well, start it and make it portable to Unix as
well, and you'll pull in tons of GNU enthusiasts and college students
(like me :-) ).  Having it not exclusively Amiga is not the drawback 
it may at first appear to be: if an excellent word processor runs on Amiga
and several other types of computers as well, then people will not turn away
from the Amiga simply because it doesn't have any good word processors.  They
would choose (or reject) it for other merits (drawbacks) instead.

In the case of apps like word processors and spreadsheets, there's a slight
(argh!) portability problem in the area of user interfaces.  The first thing
that would have to be done is to create a high-level user interface library
that's portable between Amiga and X-Windows at minimum.  Something like this
may already exist on the X-Windows side of things, and simply be waiting to
be ported to the Amiga.

If you want to try pulling together a distributed programming team to write
a commercial program, more power to you...but I don't think it'll work: 
there are just too many hang-ups.

	Hey, went a dusted off my ol' Atari 2600 and lo what do we have
hear: a Video Touch Pad(tm)! Some of you probably remember it, a small keypad
that plugs into the joystick port and has a grid of 3x4 soft touch buttons.
It orginally came with the game Star Raiders (?) to raise shields, hyberspace,
etc. 
	Anyhow, enough of that. I was wondering if anyone had written a driver
or some such piece of software to make use of this on the Amiga? The only real
pratical thing I can think to use it for right now is some sort of macro
launcher- myself I hate hitting cntrl-lalt-rshift-lamiga-f1 to "save time". Be
nice to just have this baby off to the side in the 2nd port.

Here is another good one about Directory Opus. Monday (July 27, 1992) I 
received a letter from INOVAtronics offering Directory Opus for $10 off
list price if I respond by June 30, 1992. The letter was postmarked
July 23, 1992!

Are these the same people that took 6 months to send CanDo v1.6 updates 
to registered users?

I think I'll stick with DiskMaster II.

I was wondering, shouldn't workbench also search multiple assigns.  I have
an assign statement that says: assign C: sys:c2 add.  Without adding
a path, WB doesn't think to look there.
