Yes. Paula is slated for an overhaul.

I have no idea as to the pricing structure, although I would hope that it
will be much cheaper than the current Sunrize offering.

Possible, but I would imagine that this will amount to a third-party
venture. At this point, the A1200 is still in its infancy.

So what you're saying is, it's Apple and Microsoft trying to establish
a new (and rather clumsy, from what I've seen of it) "standard" by divine
fiat, not because of any particular advantage of said "standard."

I'm sorry, but that's nothing new.

Organization: CTS Network Services (crash, ctsnet), El Cajon, CA

Summary: TimeElapsed function in UChess 2.0 is broke
Keywords: UChess


Uchess 2.0 which I uploaded to some sites last night has a problem,
actually many problems, with its timeelapsed function, so it
takes far too long per move in most time conditions.  Try setting
1 move 10 secs or 1 move per 5 secs for best results.
Basically I have fixed most of the problem, but when thinking
on opponents time is on, it still takes far too long.
I will work on the problem and release a 2.01 sometime in
the next couple of days or so, for now stick with Version 1.01,
or live with the timing bugs in version 2.0 and try and work
around them.

UChess is an Amiga based chess pgm, requiring 4M of fast ram,
a 68020 or better microprocessor OS 2.04 or later, 
and has an AGA mode 256 color display on machines so equipped.

	It is not avalable on any Mac or PC that I have ever used. It is
only available on the Amiga. For example, right now I am running my 
Workbench, Term, DeluxePaint, ProWrite, DirOpus, and EdPlayer. Right now
onscreen I can see my Workbench, Term, Deluxepaint, ProWrite, DirOpus, and 
Edplayer. The Workbench has a 16 color palette, all shades of grey and
a little red. Term has grey, dark blue, light blue, and an unseen color
in its 4 color palette. DeluxePaint has 4096 color HAM modem on. ProWrite
is in 4 color mode, with purple, blue, white, and orange. DirOpus is in
16 colors including beige, two reds, two blues, yellow, green, and orange.
Edplayer looks like 16 colors, mostly black and grey, red and green.

	And I can see all of them in their original palettes, at the same 
time. I can load 10 HAM pics, each with its own 4096 color palette, and
see all of their different paletes at the same time on screen with no
problems. I can order the screens any way I want, and slide them all around
faster than I can move windows. And moving windows is only moving ghosted
outlines, while moving screens is like moving 640x400x6 bitmaps or whatever.

	If you do not know what I mean when I say screen, then you are 
missing the best innovation in multitasking systems. I would like to upload
a pic to show everyone what it looks like, but I can't put all those
different palettes into one picture! Please someone with AGA make a pic
of lots of screens the way it looks on an Amiga and upload it somewhere.

	BTW, if you don't know what a keyboard garage is, then who are
you to complain about screens?

Hmm, what benefits does a multimedia cut/paste/play standard provide?

Hmm, multimedia databases, multimedia mail, multimedia
telecommunications, multimedia conferencing, multimedia file storage,
a standard multimedia library, leading to multimedia compilers.

Whatever multimedia can be used for, it can be used easier if there is
a well defined standard, in the operating system (like the Mac and
Windows and soon OS/2).

AHEM!  If you aren't satisfied with 4 colors, Workbench also
supports 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, and 256-color desktops with AGA.
(up to 16 with ECS).

In any case, I run my WB in only 4 colors and it looks mighty
purdy, thank you very much.  (JanP makes very good DockIcons! :))


>And the Workbench is suppose to be SO SOO GREAT!?  Ha!

Yes, besides its good looks, it is fully multitasking with
multiple screens, system controlled input stream (i.e. 
commodities), Arexx support, and it doesn't take much
memory.   So there!   8^P

Actually it's not very complicated. HAM stands for Hold And Modify. While
drawing the scanline, you will be able to modify one colour component,
red/green/blue, while holding the other two from the previous pixel. Or you
may pick a totally full colour from a limited palette. Older Amiga use 6-bit
HAM which works like this:

	6-bit pixel:

		bits 6,5	lower nybble (value 0-15)

		     00		Pick palette entry 0-15
		     01		Modify Red, Hold G & B
		     10		Modify Blue, Hold R & G
		     11		Modify Green, Hold R & B

I remember that the high nibble values 1,2,3 did not choose R,G,B, respectively.
They were in a different order. I wonder why? There might be other complications.
I'm too lazy to pick up the Hardware Manual and check it. It's not important,
that's how HAM works in principle.

He'd be wrong the call the PC market stagnant.

He'd have a point if he were really saying that the market can only support
so many vendors, many of whom are extremely small, selling products on next
to no margin for a long period of time.  We may already be seeing the 
beginning of a shaking out of some of the smaller fly-by-night clonemakers.

It'll be interesting to watch Computer Shopper and similar rags to see what
happens as the PC market continues to mature.

Mind you 8 bits at 55Khz sounds damned good, my hearing may be going but does

>You can't find the Atari group, and really, I'm not surprised.  Atari is just about dead, and it's software and hardware support is almost non-existant.  This just goes to show that while the Falcon may be sold to a few naive people, us Amigans should have nothing to worry about.  The Falcon will not be able to penetrate the Amiga's market as there is simply no support for it.

Is this the best you can do? Some guy doesn't know the name of the 8-bit Atari
group, and that makes the Falcon a bad computer, and Atari a bad company? 
You, sir, are a fool of the highest caliber. When you come up with a real
flame about the Falcon, come back and see us. Otherwise, don't waste our time.

Oh, and you might try pressing the return key, say, once per line or so...
