I bet c.s.a.audio would only end up with four articles per week under that
scheme.  Most of the talk in c.s.a.audio seems to be about MODs and other
such song formats, but that still doesn't justify splitting the group.
Besides, what about people who have MIDI interfaces and use sequencers and other
tools to create music?  Should they post to c.s.a.music and end up having to
search for messages among hundreds of messages saying "Where can I find the
latest MODs?"

By the way, it would be a very bad idea to send out a control message to
newgroup comp.sys.amiga.music.  The usual procedure to create newsgroups is to
create an official proposal posted to news.announce.newsgroups, discuss it for
a period of time, and then bring it up for a vote.  If the vote passes (which
means that it receives a 2/3rds majority and 100 more 'yes' votes than 'no'
votes), then it gets created.  If you send out the newgroup message yourself,
you'll probably get a lot of angry mail from system administrators.

I bought one. (4megs + 120Megs drive).

I am VERY satified with it. I'll sum up the pro and cons:

pro:
+ a dream to set up and install. very troublefree running afterwards.
+ high performance (I can upload an AIBB module or perform tests). basically
  faster than a A3000 except for graphics. Faster than the 4000 on the sieve
  test. slower on math since I don't have a FPU (optional). F1GP seems to run
  as fast as on a A3000. Wing commander is ultra-smooth (~20  fps?).
+ you can turn off the power supply and your amiga can then run in 68000 
  (great when you don't want the noise while playing non-HD installable games
  which don't need 030 power, such as Bill's tomato game)
+ separate power supply, useful for old A500 with junk PSUs.
+ neat look.
+ optional FPU and mini-slot (for a PC AT emulator presently)

con:
- NOISY!!! (the fan can be quieted by adding diods (4) to it, just like the
  2000's fan), but the drive itself (Maxtor) is too noisy for a home
  environment. I built some kind of housing in polystyrene and now it is is Ok.
- you cannot use only the 68030 or HD, you have to disconnect both. :-(
- No MMU, although you can yourself plug a fulll 40Mhz 68030 if you need
- only expandable to 8megs of ram, if this is important.

So, If you buy it you wont be disapointed. However buying the new derringer or
vector accelerators + an HD may be a better choice, if the ability to run
either the HD or the 68030, or a quiter operation are important to you. 
Personnaly It serves me well, I will eventually buy an AGA machine near the end
of this year (or the rumor of GVP making an AGA card for their mini slot might
revel as real, but I don't beleive it). You may better off trying to find an
used or discounted A3000, though... for be the ability to fall back to 68000
was important for old games, but since A3000 seem to be very cheap in the US
you may as well keep your A500 and buy an A3000 for the total cost of the
A530...  Here in france used A3000 are still VERY expensive, so...

Yeah?  Well the ONE thing I really noticed about the v2.1 manuals is that
they are bound in an idiotic fashion.  Anyone who *really* needs these
manuals is probably going to try to use them when they are using the
computer.  Unfortunately, we can't lay these puppies down AND keep them
open to a specific page.  I think this is REALLY DUMB, Commodore.  The
older LARGE manual for v2.04 could at least be read without holding it and
could be left open to a specific location without constantly holding it in
that position.  Yeah, I know... cheap binding probably saves a buck a
copy... I, for one, am NOT impressed.  The content is good but the way it's
put together leaves a LOT of room for improvement, IMHO.

Does anybody know what MAKELINK is supposed to do?

The AmigaDOS manual sez this:

   "MAKELINK creates a file on a disk that is a pointer to another file,
   this is known as a link. When an application or command calls the FROM
   file, the TO file is actually used. By default, MAKELINK supports hard
   links -- the FROM file and TO file mus be on the same volume."

That seemed clear enough to me, but it doesn't seem to work that way. I tried
creating a file "Alpha", then a link to it called "Bravo", like this:

   makelink bravo alpha

When I do a dir, both files appear, and when I type them, Bravo now has the
same text as Alpha. Looks OK so far.

*But*, when I use an editor to change the text in Alpha, Bravo remains
unchanged! As far as I can see, the "MakeLink" command isn't doing what it's
advertised to do, it's just doing a simple copy. You get two completely
separate files, with no link between them at all.

What's going on?

If you have the 2.04 kickstart installed on the hard disk, you don't need to add
a ROM for 2.1. All you need is the 2.1 workbench upgrade disks. I upgraded my A3000
to 2.1 and it doesn't have the ROMs installed either. If you do want to add the ROMs
I believe you need to get the A3000 2.04 ROM upgrade kit, which is separate from
the 2.1 upgrade kit. Perfectly clear, right? Watch out for the setpatch program on
the 2.1 install disk -- it crashed my machine.

The lower bound for military service in Sweden is 7.5 months, but I am
pretty sure he have a longer service period than that. If he is in the
army it could be 7.5, 10, 12 or 15 months. The navy and the air force have 
other lengths for the service periods, often a bit longer than the

Release 2.04 was KS 37.175.  The installation software keys off the "37".

All A3000 users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to Kickstart release 2.04
(V37.175).  Many bugs were fixed and a lot of attention was given to
compatibility fixes.  We basically consider 2.04 the "official" 2.0 Kickstart
(there's also 2.05, but that's another story..).

Quite possible and highly recommended.

>Will I have to buy the entire 2.04 release to

Registered A3000 owners should be able to get the 2.04 Kickstart from their
dealer.

>And does the
>normal 2.04 release even _come_ with the SuperKickStart for the A3000?

The AS316 Upgrade Kit included the SuperKickstart disk.  But if you plan
to upgrade to Release 2.1, just get the SuperKickStart disk (or ROMs) and
the AS216 (see below).

The AS314 contains the 2.04 ROM.  If you wish to preserve your soft-load option
get the AS316 which has the SuperKickstart disk instead.
Anyway, once your Kickstart is up to 2.04, you need the AS216 Enhancer Kit
which has everything else you (an A3000 owner) need to upgrade to Release
2.1.  The AS215 Enhancer Kit is the same but has a Kickstart ROM for A2000
owners.

Release 2.1 works just fine on an A3000.

It could possibly be refering to the PCMCIA slots on the low end
machines <grumble>.  Then again, the folks at Commodore have a
strange sense of humor.

Hi,
	I'm trying to get the pic2hl filter to work in HamLabPlus, any
body have succes doing this.  I putit into the filters sirectory and did
"scan filters" and it seemed to work okay, but hamlabplus doesn't want
to recognize .pic or .clp files (which this filter is supposed to do I
believe).  Any info would be greatly appreciated,
