Yes, it is nice to be back - and to have you back! Contribute? Ya!
|
|
What we need is some "message topics" to bring on the threads (to use
|
|
the term loosely - CBBS doesn't currently support "threads" i.e. keeping
|
|
track of replies - but you can use summary commands to read all msgs of
|
|
a given topic).
|
|
I think I'll start with the next msg - about CD ROMS.
|
|
|
|
Msg 45740 is 16 line(s) on 09/22/92 from WARD CHRISTENSEN
|
|
to ALL re: CD-ROMS
|
|
|
|
Any thoughts about CD-ROMS? I see many bundled with their own controllers -
|
|
are many of them SCSI? I have an IN-2000 SCSI controller, but might like
|
|
to go for a faster one and one supported by OS/2 such as an Adaptec -
|
|
lets see (scratching head). 1542B? Then the ROM itself: OS/2 only
|
|
supports IBM and Toshiba, though "some" others work by patching the name
|
|
of the drive mfgr into the support module.
|
|
I'd like music, and I'd like NOT to buy in on the "trailing edge" of
|
|
an era - sounds like the double-speed, or even quad-speed CDs are right
|
|
here now, though not completely taking over the market.
|
|
Lets put OS/2 out of the picture for now - Just windows (currently 3.0,
|
|
but with 3.1 on the shelf). What drive would work on my IN-2000?
|
|
Thanks!
|
|
P.S. lets get some messages going here! I sure would appreciate it!
|
|
I know with all the outages, CBBS will never see 50 calls a day again on
|
|
its one line, but perhaps we can get a bit of "critical mass" to keep it
|
|
alive as a piece of working history! Thanks!

|
|
to WARD CHRISTENSEN re: R/CD-ROMS
|
|
|
|
I just wrote an article about multimedia-related hardware, including
|
|
CD-ROM drives. This was for a shareware mag, so I didn't look at the
|
|
high end. OTOH, I disregarded the true low end too. I focused upon
|
|
those that were fully compatible with Win 3.0 with MM extensions and
|
|
3.1. The hands-down winner was Sony's CDU535. (Among the best sources
|
|
I found was FastMICRO. About #350 to the door, very fast service,
|
|
a sales staff which knew what it was doing, etc.
|
|
|
|
BTW, I too am very glad you're back up, not only because this has
|
|
been my favorite BBS since my first modem in the early '80s (well,
|
|
except for my own BBS, of course <G>) but also because I slipped
|
|
this phone number into an article about shareware's first decade.
|
|
(Remember that we spoke briefly about that a couple of months ago?)
|
|
That article is turning into my most-sold piece ever-in the U.S.,
|
|
U.K., Australia and Canada. (The latter is a mainstream pub, but
|
|
they still were interested.) Also, some writer in Texas wants to
|
|
excerpt the section about CBBS and MODEM/XMODEM this week.So you
|
|
may get a healthy number of additional callers as a result.
|
|
|
|
Regards.

Thanx for the info. Decided not to get the QBlazer. I took US

Robotics on their offer of a trade in on a new DS 16.8K. The cost

was a few $ more and I gained a great deal of compatability.
