Howdy,
	I got my subscription package and tried AOL for myself. Now,
I've had accounts on Compu$pend and GEnie, both of which were sluggish
and hard to maneuver around. I like AOL because you feel as if you using
the System 7 Network facility; or using the System 6 chooser to pick a host
and remote connect to it. In any case, the folders are well organized
although it did take a bit getting used to some of the dialog boxes to
find out where GIF Converter 2.3 was. In any case, I haven't spend TOO
much time with it, I really don't want to spend too much money on this
thing. I highly recommend it over GEnie and Compu$h*t in terms of
navigation (yes, even with the Navigator). As for message systems and
conferences, I really haven't spent too much time with them. I do like
the Company Product Support sections except that there aren't too many
of them. Also, in the lifestyles section, there isn't a 'Movies'
newsgroup. If anyone has any comments (NOT flames..these are my opinions
you know) then e-mail me.

Hi, I'm trying to find a alarm program that actually tries to warn you of
impeding disaster (missed meetings, burning stove, etc) with sound. Both
Apple's clock program and SuperClock only flashes the Apple icon as the
mean of "alarming". Any suggestions? System 7.0.1 w/Tuneup, on both IIsi
and PB100.

Apple no longer ships the powerbook 100 so if you want it youll have to buy 
it soon.  However, if they keep the 145 after they intro the 4 new models
then the price of the 145 will be cheap (around 1000 with stanford's academic
price).  IMO, keeping the 145 is likely because a) Mac Week said they would
b) Apple doesnt think it will be able to meet demand on the new powerbooks.


A Note on academic pricing:  In general, schools pay the same price to Apple
that the superstores do.  The reason that they are less expensive is that 
schools are limited on their markup.  At Stanford, the markup is 5%.  
The penalty with academic dicounts is that service is poor, the salespersons
are unknowledgable and rude. (I should know, I am one :)).  Also, some campuses
dont stock computers and order each one seperately... A often lengthy process.

I've gotten GifConverter 2.3b1 to read JPEG's and save GIF's as JPEG's.  It 
does take a whopping amount of memory (5 megs on my IIci to convert an 
800x600x256 GIF to JPEG format), and even then the program chops off the bottom
of the new file, although it doesn't LOOK like it until you close the file and 
reload it....sneaky, that.  So hey, is the author of this excellent (if

I read this and found the reported names to be interesting; specifically,

Did I answer this in a.b.p.e.d?  Anyway, the answer is Not until SGI
finishes there quicktime protocols sometime in the next two monthes or so. 
Once those are done, it should be only a matter of monthes till they are

Organization: Amdahl Corporation, Sunnyvale CA


I recently got PICTPixie from ftp.apple.com.  I assume that it's the
latest version (1.0a2) since it comes from Apple.  But when I select
the Open command, MacsBug comes up and says "user break".  If I respond
with an "es", the program quits.  Am I the only on that this happens to?
Am I doing something wrong?  Is there a way to avoid this?  Would it work
if I remove MacsBug?  

I know that I can use drag-and-drop to get it to open PICTs, but what I 
want to do (and have been using the previous incarnation of PICTPixie, called
PICTCompressor, for) is converting JFIF files into PICTs and for some 
reason, dropping a JFIF file onto it causes it to not be able to correctly 
read the file (I'd appreciate it if anyone could shed any light on this 
problem, too).

Any answers?

Fetch should handle .hqx, .sit, and .bin files automatically.  If it  
doesn't check the preferences to make sure those options are enabled.

To handle .Z and .tar files you should get MacCompress and Tar from  
sumex-aim.stanford.edu (in /info-mac/util, I believe).  Fetch will  
automatically download .Z and .tar files in the proper mode and set their  
icons to match MacCompress and Tar.

If you want to have an easier time reading README files grab Fetch 2.1b4  
from dartvax.dartmouth.edu (in /pub/mac); it has a "View File" command.

It illustrates that you don't know what you're talking about.
This is the second time I've read you claim something like this--
this time I'm going to correct you.

The Chooser lists drivers for the printers you've chosen to
install.  When you buy a new printer, you get a driver for it.
Click-n-drag to put a copy in the Extensions folder, and you've
got all you need to print.  It's the printer manufacturer's
responsibility to provide a driver, not yours, not the OS's, and
not the apps'.

You never have to think again about what kind of printer you
have.  Your applications don't need to know what kind of printer
you have.  They don't have to care about monitors, either, unless
they want to.

Why I Will Never Own a PC:
a cautionary tale

My SO, Lance, got a whizzy fractal drawing package for his PC.
It's a PD program, but he bought a commercial version, complete
with a manual.  He brought the book and the floppy up to his
brother Tony's house, so he could show off this whizzy toy on
Tony's new PC clone.  Lance installed the program and fired it
up.  (I won't take the time now to laugh at the lovely screenful
of ascii menu this program presents you with.  "Press ESC to
return to previous screen" my foot!)

"What kind of VGA card do you have?" Lance asked.

"Uh.  No clue."  Tony dug around in a pile of manuals and stuff
until he found something that said what kind of VGA card he
had.

Lance paged through a list of dozens of graphics card types.
Tony's type wasn't on the list.  "Let's try the generic VGA
driver," Lance said.  The program drew a line and crashed.
Restart.  Retry.  Lance tried a few more.  Some of them got
as far as drawing an entire fractal, but malfunctioned when
they tried to do colormap animation.

I just stood there, laughing and laughing.  They never did
get it running.

Sorry, but my mailer wouldn't send to the uucp address, david@sherpa.uucp.

You need to stay current -- the most recent version of the StuffIt family
format is 3.0, which a large number of people are using now. Downline can't
decompress any of the StuffIt formats above 1.5.1, nor can Compact Pro.
UnStuffIt Deluxe (currently) can only decompress archives created with any
version of StuffIt before 3.0, and depending on which version of StuffIt
you have (presumably 1.5.1), it won't help either.

You need to get StuffIt Lite 3.0.1 (the latest version of the shareware
StuffIt -- $25 to register, I believe; for creating SIT3 archives), or at
the least StuffIt Expander 1.0.1 (free; for unarchiving ANY StuffIt format
archive, Compact Pro archives, and AppleLink packages). Aladdin should be
releasing a new version of UnStuffIt Deluxe shortly which will handle any
specific SITD 3.0 specialties.

You should be able to get these from the same source as 5-Stix (of course,
5-Stix is more of a demo, since until you register the shareware payment
for it you can only play for a limited time before it quits).

In case you already have it, Stuffit Deluxe will do all that BinHEx 4.0
can in regards to encoding and decoding binaries in
comp.sys.binaries.mac. Be sure you have its advanced features turned on
and then look in the Other menu. It's there.

As for REAL Binhex, I hear it's at sumex.aim.i.can't.remember.the.rest;
