to ALL. re: BUILDING PC SYSTEM
|
|
|
|
If you're interested in minor upgrades, or major ones, or putting
|
|
pieces together, I'd like to recommend Compu Electronics, across the street
|
|
from the ElekTek in Lincolnwood - 708 679-2667. "Ram" (pronounced "Rahm"
|
|
which I guess you could also say is "ROM") is the owner, and a great guy.
|
|
I just picked up a 386/sx/25, mini-tower, 4M, 2-ser+1-p+g, etc, and moved
|
|
my old floppies, hard disk, video, and tape into it - finally retiring my
|
|
Bullet-286'd original 5-slot PC. This thing hums! BUT we're talking real
|
|
HACKING - I stared at cables trying to figure which way they go in, etc.
|
|
But I got it working - and with some help from Randy, figured out that
|
|
the problems I had were that "something" is interfering with port 300,
|
|
which was where my Lantastic board is. (Just dawned on me, that might
|
|
have been the EMS port - I'll bet that's it - the AMI BIOS setup is GREAT!)
|
|
Good prices, good service, and a real personal touch. From bits and
|
|
pieces to full systems, though I've not gotten a "full" system since my
|
|
original PC! I've only 'hacked' since then...No, I guess I got an AST
|
|
Premium 286 a few years ago...('87).

|
|
>optional Epson/Proprinter III emulation cartridge
|
|
**NOT** supported on the 500! They say essentially "Since the Deskjet has
|
|
been so widely accepted, most packages supporte it directly so we
|
|
don't support the Epson or Proprinter emulation in the 500C.
|
|
As to trying transparencies and envelopes, well, people are calling and
|
|
saying "What the heck did you print that envelope with???" - because I
|
|
use corel draw to do a color spread (red top, to blue on bottom) across
|
|
the 3 lines of addr, etc (grin). Transparencies are OUTSTANDING - but you've
|
|
got to go with the rather pricey HP ones - they are "coated" so the front
|
|
is - get this - water soluble.

|
|

Curious if anyone has installed the driver and used JUST the HP fonts -
|
|
someone asked me how they are, I had to say "I don't know, I always use
|
|
Adobe Type Manager". I'm not even sure how to defeat ATM and try the
|
|
other fonts - or rather am not really motivated to try.

to ALL re: BUY KEYBOARD?
|
|
|
|
Of the stuff I bought at Compu Electronics Saturday, the keyboard is the
|
|
one I struggle with the most. It has that darned "large enter key" as if
|
|
my fingers weren't accurate enough to type on a smaller one! In return for
|
|
this annoying big key, the used-a-lot-in-dos \ key is now further away. On
|
|
several occasions Sunday, I hit the TOP of the enter key, thinking the
|
|
\ key was there, so for example entering to copy to D: instead of D:\...
|
|
Curious if anyone knows of an ENHANCED keyboard - preferrably with
|
|
switchable control & caps - though I'm doing that in software right now.

|
|
|
|
Well, people like what people like. I was horrified recently to see
|
|
someone using WordPerfect as a data editor!! But
|
|
it's really a case of knowing what you liike
|
|
and liking what you know. I grew up with EMACS of
|
|
one form or another (I started with Perfect Writer in
|
|
1983 or so), so I like it. But people who got used to WordStar will
|
|
always hate EMACSes. I agree that VI is VIle, but if you learned it
|
|
first...I used to know one person who ran a version of WYLBUR on her
|
|
PC...

|
|
to BYRON GRUSH re: R/DEC RAINBOWS
|
|
|
|
I have a client which has a few of those beasts still in service. My
|
|
recollection is that the serial port (unlike almost everything else
|
|
about the thing!) is IBM-compatible. The main problem is that the comm.
|
|
program distributed with it uses proprietary protocols which were so
|
|
utterly strange that I gave up on direct connections with anything
|
|
else. The most practical solution is a version of Media Master written
|
|
expressly for the Rainbow, which works well.
|
|
|
|
I almost hate to suggest this, as I'm slowly weaning them from the
|
|
Rainbows, but if you would like, I could pass along your phone number
|
|
in case they're interested in contacting you.
