]re Boardwatch: Just a wry sort of half a joke. In the B'watch
|
||
|
|
contest I had voted for the 1st bulletin board, Ward's & Randy's CBBS,
|
||
|
|
which Randy engineered and for which Ward wrote 20,000 lines of code.

|
|
to ALL re: LAP/PALM SHOW
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Spent most of two days at the Lap/Palm show in Chicago - Thurs & Fri.
|
||
|
|
The most interesting box I saw was from Gateway - a 2.75# sub-notebook,
|
||
|
|
with 400-line (double-scan CGA), 40M hard disk, (an ultra-thin 2.5"er)
|
||
|
|
etc. $1295 direct. I've got details if you're interested.
|
||
|
|
IBM showed off its new line of machines: all are called "Thinkpad", which
|
||
|
|
is dumb, because that makes you think of the "pad" - i.e. pen based one.
|
||
|
|
The 300 is a 5.9# monochrome machine, with 80 ($1375) or 120 ($1575)
|
||
|
|
hard disk, 4M ram, ethernet ($125 (ea.) adapter cable for 10baseT or
|
||
|
|
thinnet), and a REALLY NEAT "port replicator" which allows you to hang
|
||
|
|
your cables off of the back of this 1.5" thick thingie - serial, parallel,
|
||
|
|
power, VGA, mouse, keyboard - and quickly connect or disconnect all, with
|
||
|
|
a simple motion.
|
||
|
|
The 300 is a 386SL at 25mhz with 64K cache.
|
||
|
|
The 700 line is the IBM 486SLC (a 16-bit I/O (bad) 16K cache (Good!)
|
||
|
|
chip made by IBM based upon Intel licensing) running at 25MHz, with an
|
||
|
|
upgrade available to the 25/50 chip. An 80M machine goes for $2700, and
|
||
|
|
120M for $2950 (if I'm recalling right).
|
||
|
|
The 700C is a Beeeautiful 10.4 (largest in the industry, I think!) color
|
||
|
|
active matrix 486SLC - goes for 4300 or so - anticipated street of $4k.
|
||
|
|
The 700C was so agressively priced (this is with 3-year on-site warranty!)
|
||
|
|
that other machines like the 300C just "fell out of the line".
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
Other interesting things - there are now several vendors of GPS hardware
|
||
|
|
and software so if for example you're into sailing, you can tell exactly
|
||
|
|
where you are at any time. Pretty slick. (Didn't get prices).

Msg 45787 is 10 line(s) on 10/10/92 from ROY LIPSCOMB
|
||
|
|
to ALL re: ALL COMMAND.COM'S IDENTICAL?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Is there only one identical edition of COMMAND.COM found in MS-DOS 5.0
|
||
|
|
(and PC-DOS 5.0), no matter which OEM distributes that DOS? Is the same
|
||
|
|
true for DOS 3.1? 3.2? 3.3? 4.0?
|
||
|
|
The reason I ask is that I've developed a utility that locates the
|
||
|
|
errorlevel storage area in COMMAND.COM, retrieves that errorlevel, and
|
||
|
|
then displays it. I've done this for my copies of COMMAND.COM for the
|
||
|
|
above versions (except 4.0). Before releasing this utility, I'd like
|
||
|
|
to be sure that it's universally usable.
|
||
|
|
If anyone is interested in having this utility work for DOS 4.0 also,
|
||
|
|
or for DR DOS, let me know.

||
