Hi Benny!


Nope :/  Troika's project -- Ami'05 --fizzled. And the ACK endevore -- 
PowerVixxen -- was put on hold. So, why attempts to get hardware for Amiga 
OS4 platform failing? Good evil mystery, IMO! :/

Ask Hyperion and get the same identical answer. I guess....

The A1 is currently not online. Since moving, I haven't worked out the new 
ISP problems...

I was just telling David Veatch, our wonderful REMOTE SYSOP, that I'm 
nearby a computer center lab that has WindowsXP on Dells to do work. I use 
a 256MB USB drive -- SanDisk to keep the AmigaOne tuned into the world. I 
need to study some Roadshow on the A1 to setup DSLnetworking via AT&T 
and Yahoo! :)

As for dialup via modem, I don't have my linux anymore. So, that's one reason 
for not doing that. I'm not aware of any TERM program working with the A1 
and a FAX modem to call Eastpointe BBS, but I'll check it out. Let you know 
what happens.
