|

Yep, I remember seeing that ad. It was prohibitively expensive - I
|
|
think $39 (or at least $30). The company name rang a bell - because
|
|
they were the ones that put XMODEM on a ROM chip for my HX-20. SkiSoft
|
|
(at least SKI something). No further details. Dunno where to START,
|
|
except now you could look in PC mags under "Ski.", assuming that's
|
|
where, and that they are in the alphabetical advertisers index.

Add Randy to the list of satisfied DeskJet owners. ElekTek, $645.
|
|
Also, I've had great success at cartridge reinking, with ordinary
|
|
fountain pen ink. I didn't put enough in the first couple times,
|
|
then noticed how HEAVY a new cartridge was. Sure enough, a new one
|
|
weighs just over 1-3/4 oz, while an empty one is 1 oz or less, so
|
|
now I pump ink in (with a blow-torch-stretched-eye-dropper) until I'm
|
|
up around 1.5 ozs - in other words, a full half oz of ink. This brings
|
|
the "cost of ownership" down, since it cuts about 3 cents off each
|
|
page printed ($14+ cartridge prints about 500 pages).

to ALL re: IIGS MODEM PROGRAM
|
|
|
|
I am looking for a reasonable priced modem program for the
|
|
Apple IIGS or an active BBS number where I can get good advice
|
|
on purchasing a IIGS modem program.
|
|
The Apple IIe and Apple IIGS are extremely compatible except
|
|
for modem programs; here they are highly incompatible. To use
|
|
my own program written in Forth I would have to find the correct
|
|
toolkit documentation and rewrite all of my primitive code. I
|
|
would rather just buy a reasonably priced program with buffer
|
|
saving ability.
|
|
Thanks in advance for any leads.

to ALL re: HELP W/ ST4026 HARD DISK
|
|
|
|
I have an offer I can't refuse for a Seagate ST4026 20 MEG hard
|
|
disk. My question is will it work in my system? I have an IBM PC
|
|
(with newer ROM to support hard disk drives) with dual full height
|
|
floppies. Of course, I'll have to pull one of the floppies. It
|
|
has the original 63 watt power supply as well.
|
|
My questions are:
|
|
1. is the ST4026 "XT" compatible
|
|
2. what kind of controller cshould/can I use
|
|
(is there an RLL possible?)
|
|
3. will my trusty IBM power supply have to go? Am I better off with
|
|
an external case/power supply?
|
|
4. if the answer is "no" it won't work in an IBM PC, is anyone interested
|
|
in buying it and how much will you offer me?
|
|
Any information would be greatly appreciated. One more question, is
|
|
anyone aware of the existence of a floppy/hard controller (XT compatible)
|
|
that will drive 360/720/ and-or 144 MEG floppy drives, that would work
|
|
with the ST4026, of course.
|
|
Thanks,
|

Bob, TIC (talk is Cheap) is a good sharere program. I have a (I believe

Does anyone have a copy of the Hayes command set? I
|
|
purchased a Hayes Micromodem IIe used, and it came with no
|
|
instructions. I spicificly want to know how to use the
|
|
speaker. It is an all internal modem. The newer version of
|
|
the Micromodem IIe. The old one had two parts a card and an
|
|
external device called an octocupler. Also I could use

some public domain Tellecomunications programs.

Read with fascination your note on refilling DeskJet cartridges,
|
|
and wondered if it would apply to ThinkJet cartridges. But even new
|
|
in the box, and including the box, my cartridges weigh barely one
|
|
ounce. The HP part numbers are 92261A for regular and 51604A for
|
|
plain paper.
|
|
How do you refill? Punch out the recessed spherical plastic
|
|
nipple next to the electrical contacts? If so, can you reseal
|
|
it with glue? This would be a great use for a hypodermic needle,
|
|
but non-addicts can no longer get them.
|
|
I love the quiet of the ThinkJet, but it is more expensive than
|
|
I would like for volume use. If I can refill the cartridges the
|
|
ancient Epson will be relegated to standards-verification duty.

to WARD re: FEYNMAN BOOKS
|
|
|
|
I ran a search for Feynman books on the DuPage Library System, and
|
|
came up with these:
|
|
1. The character of physical law
|
|
Cambridge : M.I.T. Press, c1965
|
|
2. QED : the strange theory of light and matter
|
|
Princeton, N.J. : Princeton University Pr., c1985
|
|
3. "Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman!" : adventures of a curious character
|
|
New York : Norton, c1985
|
|
4. "What do you care what other people think?" : further adventures
|
|
of a curious character
|
|
Richard P. Feynman as told to Ralph Leighton
|
|
New York : Norton, c1988 255 p. : ill. ; 22 cm.
|
|
Seven of the member libraries have #4 and two more have ordered it.
|
|
Copies in the Streamwood and Glen Ellyn libraries are checked out now.
|
|
The book hasn't been on the shelves long enough for good usage stats,
|
|
but I'm betting that it will be popular.

Using Qbasic. I can't get the codes accepted in the pgm I am working

on, did in a test run. Must be because I am NOT in the main module.
|
|
With 174K, I will just thumb through the books while I work on the
|

printout routine. Have 150K data file to play with now. The F keys

would make it look nicer but it is complicated enough so a little

There are a couple of books that are good on this subject. One that
|
|
made the best sellers here is "The C programmers guide to serial communication"
|
|
it has a description of the UART, and its use in the PC. I don't
|
|
have the book handy, but I'll try and dig it out and dig out the relevant
|
|
information. I'll also try and get some more details on the book.
