46173,08,03/28/93,EDWARD MARSH,ALL 68000 FRIMWARE?, Looking for a simple monitor for a processor. I am not sure were to look for such an animal. The monitor sould be able to read an write character from a RS232 port via SIO. The monitor sould be able to get around some memory, and should be able to be able to other useful things necessary for micro development I would like to buy the source code. Code should be written in 68000 assembler. The processor being used will be a 68008. thank you. Please leave a repy on this bbs. 46272,05,05/23/93,MURRAY ARNOW,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/VOICE ON THE INTERNET, Voice e-mail is here. Where I currently work, the Mac is the computer of choice. Two weeks ago MacMail was upgraded and now supports voice mail attachments. Right now it is a novelty and not used by most people on the [D Anyway its here, and I suppose I'll end up using it out of forced necessity. 46273,28,05/24/93,ANDY SHAPIRO,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/DBIV?, Wow! I like your check system (fun and profits)! I do like going out to SC4 just because (a) I can do it, and (b) I feel a little more comfortable with the math there. Remember, this checkbook program started out as a very quick hack to replace what I think of as an ugly bit of commercial software. My major consideration was not to have to re-enter all the stuff already in the .dbf file. Happily, the checks were stored in dBase compatible form, so that was simple. I've done xBase stuff on and off since the days of my Kaypro 2'84 and dBase II. I guess I really got into it when some people at work (then the American Bar Foundation) needed a couple of HUGE data entry systems for projects they were doing. I looked at the manuals and figured I could probably do it... In one case, they had so much information that for each record I needed to string together five (5) DBIII+ files. Yep,er 640 distinct fields for each record. So, I learned. I never had my own copy of dBase III, etc, though. A couple of months back, I happened across a copy of DBXL 1.3, a III+ clone (the rights have been sold to Borland) for $20 at a show, so I bought it. One thing I did learn, BTW, is that (at least in DBXL) the main .PRG file can also be opened as the procedure file, so you can have the main program and subroutines all in one box. I like your idea of 'state,' though -- I'll have to consider how that can work. Do you have an internet or bitnet address? If so, I'll send you the code to my checkbook if you send me yours. It'd be fun to see if your Foxbase code would run under DBXL, and vice-versa. You can reach me at marchana@gar.union.edu -or- marchana@union.bitnet. 46372,02,07/23/93,ANDY SHAPIRO,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/GENEVA, So is the computer! You should get it in a couple of days via UPS. I packed it in the Zenith 386sx box; they're just about the same size! 46373,18,07/23/93,MICHAEL SHARTIAG,WARD CHRISTENSEN GROUP, Ward, The GROUP number on the fax is as best as I can tell their designation for 'modem vis standards' Very OLD faxes are/were group 2 and I believe on had a max baud of 2400. Group 3 will fall back if connected with an older fax machine. Group 3 is the current modern day standard, although I also thought it contained a max specified baud of 9600. Hmmm. Maybe that's why some machines didn't like my 14.4K faxes. I am still finding the quality level of connections/fax interrogations to be quite a problem. I called 3 different fax back systems and got connectionsa at 4800,2400, and 9600 baud. Without having another brand to test side by side I don't know if my modem is just 'too sensitive' (ala inexpensive) or if its just plain bad luck. While my explaination of CLASS is accurate, I am finding that in practical application it does not apply. The sticking point seems to be old faxes where you dail and manually press a send button after answer do not like fax modems ( or at least class 2's) whereas drop and send faxes seem to work fine. Can anyone shed some light on these problems? 46472,02,09/22/93,WARD CHRISTENSEN,DENNIS DARBY R/PS2-70 CMOS, Call the IBM BBS, 919-517-0001, and find your way around - I think there is even a command "REF DISK". 46473,28,09/23/93,NORB DEMBINSKI,ALL FOR SALE,FROG Make a resonable offer for the following PS/2 & other computer items for sale: 1.

The LaserJet III Companion has no reference to fuses in the index. I don't have the manuals for my LJ1 and III here, they are at the office. I suppose I should call HP's Tech Support and ask them what fuse (if any) is used! Thanks. 46573,13,01/29/94,BENJAMIN COHEN,MICHAEL SHARTIAG R/RECHARGABLE ALKALINES, Let's see. There's one Phillips screw on the back. Prying with a screw- driver (U.S. Robotics model, natch) reveals a very tight fit between the base and outside sections. Aha! It's open. (If I can't get it back together, you owe me one!) Big transformer in the center, no surprise. There's a Motorola chip labelled XC78160J4/XXAB9336. A bunch of resistors. [Not used as fuses, no doubt!] Four devices with a Motorola logo marked 2N/4401/337. These are black, flat on one side but otherwise cylindrical. A fifth device of similar color and shape is labelled K982/3H and lacks Motorola's "M". I have no scope and dunno much about the stuff. I haven't yet tried recharging regular alkalines or NiCads, and am not sure that I will (don't have any NiCads around -- I long ago learned that I didn't have appropriate uses for them, most of the things I wanted them for were not used hard enough to make them worthwhile).
