to BRENT JONES re: R/PRODIGY WARNING
|
|
|
|
Yes, if Prodigy does nothing more than allow widespread Email, it will
|
|
be worth it - I think.
|
|
They specifically are NOT trying to compete with BBSs, and therefore
|
|
have no "file" area, no upload or download, etc.
|
|
See #42388 for an interesting dis-like of Prodigy.

Gee, sorry - it (X function) worked OK for me. The "h;;chat" is
|
|
supposed to pop up ONLY when someone types CHAT, since there's no one
|
|
to answer the chat, it goes into chat-help which says "don't chat". ;-)

to ADAM DADA re: CBBS HISTORY
|
|
|
|
Sorry you're suffering from all the line noise! My 2 new 9600 baud
|
|
modems are "lost" (in the "drop off at store to have sent to UPS"
|
|
"but never arrived at USR" sense).
|
|
Hayes had an S-100 modem in - what - late '77, and Randy decided that
|
|
could be used to run a dial-in system, which I originally suggested would
|
|
be for people to modem in club newsletter items, but Randy suggested a
|
|
more general purpose board.
|
|
We did it on S-100 "gear" at the time, since Randy was "into" the hobby
|
|
enough by then to "have a system lying around". It took some hacking,
|
|
but Randy got the hardware going, and I got the software going.
|
|
I'm sorry, I just have NO idea what kind of money it cost. When you
|
|
bought memory boards for $525 for SIXTEEN K and thought you were getting
|
|
a bargain, well, lets just say it cost a LOT back then. 'Course, Randy
|
|
always has been a "scrounger" and seems to come up with "deals". ;-)

Bill, I may be wrong but I believe GeoLaser works with any Postscript
|
|
compatible printer. Check w/ Berkley softworks they can be very helpful.
|
|
I also wonder if your Printer (thr HP Laser II) couldn't be upgraded to
|
|
Postscript compatibility. I sure other callers to the board will know the
|
|
answer to that question. Good Luck, Jim

to ALL re: PRODIGY
|
|
|
|
Folks, I would recommend that you definitely try out Prodigy. It is not
|
|
as zippy as BBS or CompuServe but this is due to the high use of graphics.
|
|
To see color you need EGA, but the monochrome CGA on my Toshiba 1200F looks
|
|
pretty good. The price is definitely right-$9.95 per MONTH -not $12.50
|
|
per hours like Compu$erve (as some spell it).
|
|
Draw backs 1) little 3 line graphics ads on each screen-but you have
|
|
about that much in a magazine 2) slow response time-what do you expect
|
|
with PCs at 2400 baud and 8088/6 chips [I have to admit that the
|
|
"mainframe" used by IBM and Sears sure acts like a Commodore 64 acting
|
|
as a file server for 100 terminals, but lets give them a chance to
|
|
speed it up over the next year before we finally judge.
|
|
The Prodigy kit costs $39.99 (mine was $42.69 after the state of IL took
|
|
their "cut") but this includes 3 months of free service. I wish that I
|
|
could have gotten one of the free kits but I wanted to get on-line as soon
|
|
as I could.
|
|
Finally, I do not work for IBM, Sears or have anything to gain from
|
|
your use of Prodigy. But don't criticize it until you have spent some
|
|
time giving it a try. There is a PC Club by the way.
|
|
The kit is returnable for a full refund within 30 days.
