I am just days away from purchasing At-Speed, probably from Arthur Brown Comp.
Their catalog price is $369.95. They also offer a TC Power-Emulator Memory
Manager for $49.95.

My question is. Was the TC Power-Emulator Memory Manager originally sold with
the AT-Speed board? Has it been separated to make the boards price more
attractive?

If TC Power is a sparate product does it work well as an extended menory
manager?

I'd go for it Bent. But then again, I'm prejudiced...I've been using
ATSpeed for over a year now and have nothing bad to say about it. It is
not a full AT, but it does what I need for the most part. I'm interested
in seeing the user-base expand so that more gets done for it and its
users.
As for TC Power...I never knew that as part of the ATSpeed package. I
thought it was mostly for Super Charger...but I could be wrong about that.
In any event, I've got 2.5 meg in my ST and I use extended memory with
ATSpeed...via Windows 3.x. I should say, however, that
I've never really tried to use expanded memory... There are software
expanded memory emulators, but I understand they are slow.
Good luck,
Gerry

It's a compatible replacement for the TTM194 (same size, resolution, etc)..
The 194 is a Moniterm; I've no idea who makes the 195. There's no question
in my mind that the 195 gives you a far superior screen: much crisper, and
apparently (from what people at Atari tell me) much more reliable. I've had
failures on the 194 so perhaps I believe this...although my sample isn't
large enough to mean anything.

Is it worth $400 extra? I wouldn't venture an opinion on that.

You need a real color monitor to go with the Matrix - I don't really have info
on which ones are compatible , although I'm expecting some shortly...

Subject: Colors of Atari
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu

Here's a bit of Atari trivia...

A few months ago, I met a Micheal Groh, Dealer Sales Coordinator,
and we exchanged business cards. I noticed that his card was
multicolored, in contrast to Sig Hartman's (purple logos), and
other Atari employees I've met (blue logos).

"ATARI" is spelled out in letters of different colors, and
remembering that the colors refer to the different lines of
products that Atari sells. So, in order, here are the "Colors of
Atari" and the products they represent.

A blue ST computers
T green TT computers
A orange Video games (??) Lynx
R red XE computers
I purple IBM compatibles

Well, I'm guessing on the orange part of it. But I noticed that
Lynx logos are orange. Could the Jaguar logo also be orange?
Notice that the logos on the Portfolio are purple.

Unless something drastic happened while I was gone and nobody told me,
they should be in atari/gnustuff/tos/gcc and atari/gnustuff/tos/gdb or
something real similar to that.

Perhaps the problem you're having is that they're not listed in Index.
Well, that's the next project. Try getting the file ls-lR.Z and then
grepping for gnustuff/gcc.

Lemme know if you have any other problems finding things here.

I'm interested in adding a hard drive to my 2.5 meg 1040ST.

Can any Atari HD experts recommend a reliable HD ( I guess in the 40-80 meg
range) from a quality mail order dealer? I'm looking for a complete plug in/
formating software/instructions etc as my knowledge of Atari HD's is very
limited.

Approximate cost greatly appreciated.

Most of my Atari application are music related, though I'm considering buying
a SPECTRE GCR Mac emulator.


Many thanks in advance.

Subject: Mega STe and STe GST shifter numbers....
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu

Quite some time ago, Lars-Eric Osterud noted that newer Ste's and Mega
Stes have problems with noisy DMA sound, with displaying Spectrum 512
pictures and with mono screens wrapping left if a program abruptly
changes the display address. Sure enough, I noticed the problem on my
STe using Lars' noisetracker player program, and with the Codehead's
Artgallery program (a picture "slide-show" program). The mono wrap
left is harmless - it'll switch back and forth between normal and
wierd - but rather annoying.

Unfortunately, Lars is not a hardware hacker and while he
noted that the chip in question was in location U401 on Stes, he did
not get the Atari chip numbers of the good and of the offending chips.
To make a long story short, I finally pried the right chip out of Best
Electronics and can give both numbers.

Bad new Shifter chip: C301712-001

Good older shifter : C300588

This is the largest PLCC (plastic leaded chip carrier - aka socketed
square chip) on the motherboard, at 80 pins, rather than 64 pins.

Right now, I'm missing one chanel of DMA sound (I hope I just
mis-inserted the chip!), but I can display Spectrum pictures (checked
at a friend's house) and my mono display is rock solid.

Good luck folks and enjoy my belated Christmas present.

Bob Pegram

Just an extra twist here -- My 4-megabyte 520STe had a similar problem
(bad displaying of Sperctrum 512 pictures), so following the net.advice, I
took it to the dealer have the shifter chip changed.

I was surprised to find, however, that on my machine there was NO shifter
chip! Rather, the shifter was an integrated part of a larger IC, so I
couldn't just "pop out the bad, pop in the new". Fortunately, my dealer was
nice enough to swap my motherboard for another that had the "right" shifter.

This is just to let anyone else out there know that, depending on what
'board you have, your shifter problem may not be so easily solved. Now my
Spectrum pictures display properly, though I can't say anything about DMA
sound or mono display shifting.

Well, as a happy owner of MultiGEM, I can tell you that it's not a ROM
version specific "enhancement". It claims to work on any version of TOS
from 1.2 and up, and so far it seems fine. I did have problems porting it
from TOS 1.62 to TOS 1.6, but I re-installed the program and it worked great.

If you mean that the larger chip was soldered in, my
condolences, else my advice still applies. I paid $40.00 U.S. for the
entire "larger IC" and it just popped in <grin>.

Sorry, R. J., but you rather proved my point above - you have
to reinstall for each new version of TOS. Has anyone gotten MultiGem
to run on TOS 2.0X?? I have MultiGem, just not installed. I took a
look at the install disk when I came up with that opinion, and no less
an authority on such things than our Mike Vederman (8-) declared
MultiGem a hack. DC Desktop and some other DC products tend (not always
guys, I know that!) to be TOS version specific hacks too. I mean that
the software works everywhere, but a lot of extra code for each set of
ROMS is included in the package for installation purposes. I only
object when conflicts arise, and unfortunately, one I was unprepared
for, did 8-(. Ahem, Mike V, will you ever get DataDiet to work with
MultiGem? Guess who got both programs at once 8-).

Well, I'm not a hardware hack; all I know is that my dealer said "There's
no shifter", and I worked from there.

Oh, I see -- I thought you meant that MultiGEM would run _only_ on
TOS x.y. I never considered re-installation to be a major problem, myself.
All I know is that, while it's not perfect, I do think MultiGEM comes
closer to all-purpose multitasking on the ST than any other commercial
product that I've seen.

If your fingers really like typing WordStar commands, your best bet probably
is to get a configurable editor such as MicroEMACS 3.11 or Origami. I think
Tempus also may be configurable to that extent, but I haven't used it.
