 Typing to Gary Coleman, on 04 Jun 96, you said :
I'm not sure who the moderator is for this particuliar echo but there is two
Amiga Forsale echos which in my opinion should be combined thus  elminating
the need for two such areas. I belive the reason there is two of the same was
a result of a group not liking the tactics of the moderator who originally
started the echo, He thought he was "GOD" and took the atitude if you didn't
like what he and his buddies did to hello with you, consequently you ended
banned from the echo. Now from what I've seen of the others that followed
none of this same stuff happened and the echo were pretty good... Thus my
premis that they should be once more one echo.....

from him (US currency).  So tell him that $50 is the figure I guess so far
that has been offered.  And remember that it has two megs on it already.  8^)
Hope to hear form you soon....I will let you know if that guy who made the
other offer has written me if he does.

Write your reply.

assistant: Hi!  Since you are new to AMIGAs, please allow me to explain...AMINET is a
collection of ALL (well, most all!), of the AMIGA files on the INTERNET.
Originally started in England, it was on a donated AMIGA 3000UX from C=
themselves. WALNUT CREEK donated a GIG HD to get them rolling when the
original AMINET site (AB-20) went down. There ARE several AMINET mirrors
around the world right now, including the 3 in the US. AMINET CDs are
released whenever there is enough material to fill a CD. WALNUT CREEK started
the first CD, and it sold SO well, that the series has stayed in production.
Every time there is enough material for 4 CDs, an AMINET SET is released...
so, there is AMINET 1, 2, 3, 4, AMINET SET1, 5, 6, 7, 8, AMINET SET2, 9, 10,
11, 12, AMINET SET3. AMINET 12 is out now I believe, and SET3 will follow in
a month or so. BTW  The sets are 4 CDs in them, and are VERY nicely
cross-referenced...including the past sets!!! So, you can stay current with
the latest in AMIGA s/w by getting the CDs one by one, or get the sets as
they come out. The sets are most of the material from the previous 4 CDs,
with only MINOR exceptions. With an INTERNET account, and the sets, you can
get the latest stuff directly from the sites, and have the sets for archive
uses. BTW the material on the CDs is pretty much ALL lha'd, with a NEAT
little utility to un-pack the files! An EASY to use interface for searchwords
(type in what you are looking for and hit return!), or global search through
all previous sets, and you have a NICE little archive of AMIGA s/w.
CU AMIGA *IS* a European AMIGA mag, AMIGA COMPUTING US edition is another,
and of course AMAZING COMPUTING/AMIGA is a U.S.A  publication. There are
others as well, including some on-line mags such as AMIGA REPORT. Hope this
helps your AMIGA literary knowledge, as well as your AMIGA CD info pool! :)
Take care, and TTYL!

slot on the 2000... it fits over the denise chip to get the video ignals it
needs to stop the flicker. it uses a 9 pin connector for the monitor, so the
1084 series monitors are fine for its use.. i uses it on a 2002. it works
fine.. i have a 4000 now and the kids are using the other in low res.
