46160,13,03/18/93,WARD CHRISTENSEN,DAVID JOHNSON R/DISK CLEANUP, Sheesh, I completely forgot about it! One thing I try to do to manage what I have, for chinet, is to have a fully qualified subdirectory that matches chinet. Thus I have a directory: D:\YAM\CHINET\USR\PUBLIC that had the file in it - it was sort of "invisible". I forgot to put it on my "todo" list. My apologies for the effort you put in then I dropped the ball! One thing I DID do to help manage my disk, is to buy a REALLY big tape drive - I can back up everything multiple times to one tape. Heh. I'm thinking of BLOWING AWAY the system, and being more systematic: like Randy Suess recommended - Windows in its own dir, with NO applications under it; etc. That way you can blow away a root dir entry... (though I could just as easily blow away \win3\coreldrw, etc.)... I'll try to remember to take a look at PCMANAGE! 46161,11,03/19/93,WARD CHRISTENSEN,DAVID JOHNSON R/DISK CLEANUP, Uh, OK, I cranked it up. I didn't "trust" it so I put it on my laptop, but I couldn't get it to do anything. Perhaps I didn't have a large enough file. I'll experiment more. Just to have it record the last ref date for a file would be useful, but the limit of 100 is a SEVERE limit - I have for example 300 files in several directories. Ah, but come to think of it, there is source, and I could change it... Thanks again. I still think the best way is to TRASH the system, and restore only what I need. Also Randy Suess suggests a dir w/ the original install files in it, and another dir with the files you create. That might help. 46260,22,05/19/93,NORB DEMBINSKI,ALL PS/2 PARTS FOR SALE,FROG I have the following PS/2 items for sale. 1. IBM #8514001 8514 15" Color Display. $250.00 2.

Norb Dembinski 46360,14,07/18/93,BENJAMIN COHEN,ANDY SHAPIRO R/PS, I was fiddling around with the program that works with Filink on the Geneva, and for some reason or other it wouldn't work consistently. Since there's still an Osborne Exec about arm's length from here, I never bothered to fiddle with other stuff. That connection works reliably. Most of the time the stuff that I'm doing can be quickly edited on the Exec and then printed and that's all I need from it! Actually, for that kind of work the machine is still quite good -- 8 MHz CPU and 385K RAM disk make for plenty fast editing and it has DSDD drives and can copy the finished work to an IBM-compatible format disk. It's simply a matter of having a method that works well and not having the energy to figure out a substitute. The Exec isn't going away and it's still quite good for writing letters and stuff. It's even "green" (uses a lot less energy than my 486!). 46361,09,07/18/93,BENJAMIN COHEN,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/GENEVA, Sure, it has BASIC in ROM. The base machine is 64K, of which about 24K can be configured as a RAM disk. You can add on a "wedge" under the base machine. It may be (a) a 300 baud modem, (b) a 120K RAM disk, or (c) a "multi" unit, with 64K RAM disk, 300 baud modem, and an additional ROM slot. The base machine has two ROM slots. There's a utilities ROM,e WordStar, Portable Calc, BASIC, and some other stuff. Parallel port, serial port, etc. I dunno what Randy has, but I have a spare 300 baud modem wedge just waiting for the first hungry buyer! Oh, yes, there is a tape drive, as well. 46460,03,09/08/93,MURRAY ARNOW,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/PHONE LINES, I used the term duplex because I forget what terminology is used by the phone company. I do know that there is a lower rate for lines used only for outgoing or incoming calls. I'll look it up and relay the results. 46461,05,09/08/93,MURRAY ARNOW,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/PHONE LINES, I just did a very quick and cursory investigation. I believe that Ma Bell calls the half duplex service Answer Lines. It is at least available on Telecommunications Channel Services. Maybe a suitable choice is the Type 2001E service. I'll leave it to those interested to contact Ma Bell and get better information. 46560,03,01/16/94,JOE SEROCKI,WARD CHRISTENSEN MISC, Thanks for the help at work. We really could have used it before, but wonder where we can turn to for technical specs/references on the system boards for the 95 series... Thanks 46561,07,01/20/94,NORB DEMBINSKI,ALL ENVELOPE PRINTING,FROG Can anyone tell me what Volume and Issue Number of PC Magazine that had an article and program code that described a program to print envelope on a HP Laser Jet printer. The article was featured in 1989 or 1990 of PC Magazine. The program was for use on the HP Laser Jet only. It could be made to work on the DeskJet printer also. Can anyone help me out with the correct information?
