|
to ALL re: WILL SCSI'S FIGHT?
|
|
|
|
I keep hearing horror stories about IDE drives that fight with
|
|
one another, or an IDE that fights with an RLL. But I wonder
|
|
that since SCSI's don't even use the 386 BIOS for example, they
|
|
shouldn't fight with anyone--is that true?
|

Msg 45167 is 14 line(s) on 10/15/91 from BOB SULLIVAN

|
to ALL re: SUB LIBR SYSTEM BACKWARD STEP
|
|
|
|
Some of you may be familiar with SWAN. The Suburban Library System: System
|
|
Wide Automated Network. For the past couple of years this has allowed home
|
|
computer users to call up and do various searches of the 850,000 titles in
|
|
the suburban system. A good BBS type access to knowledge.
|
|
Last Friday I attempted to look for books on stepper motors and found that
|
|
I could not access the system. When I first called the library, no one knew
|
|
what the problem was exactly. After several phone calls my local library
|
|
and I now know that the computer was changed to work with VT-100 terminals
|
|
only. I tried to explain that this locked out users such as myself, yet many
|
|
systems allow a choice of terminal interface. I received a kind but
|
|
patronizing response. This is a big step backwards for information seekers
|
|
without the money to buy VT-100 or emulation programs. While not as
|
|
spectacular as the Thomas-Hill hearings, access to information is important.
|
|
Any suggestions?
