The simple audio players merely send a "play" command to the CD drive and then terminate themselves. Hence, you don't see any memory usage. The CD will play to the end and stop. More sophisticated interfaces let you choose what tracks to play, etc. (like LLTSR from Sony) and will hold a small amount of memory while they're active. Likely, if you'd route the CD's audio outputs to your sound board's inputs, you wouldn't have to disconnect the speakers to take advantage of this capability. ... What do you mean?

I wouldn't want to recommend CD's to anyone, people's tastes vary alot. I run a BBS and I have about 6 disks on shareware, I got 10 CD's when I bought my original Drive, and they include Publish It 2.0, Wing Commander/Ultima, Loom (I really liked this game, I'd recommend it), Great Cities of the World Vol 2. Family Doctor - to name a few. Ed P.S I ended up buying a CD player for Audios after my wife heard me playing on the computer. --- Maximus 2.01wb * Origin: Just Another BBS,Souris,MB,[204]483-2552 (1:348/300) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ISMAIL ARSLANGIRAY Number: 34 To: JOE SLIFER Date: 05/28/93 7:55p Subj: Re: Mitsumi's Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No > Since you're a dealer of Mitsumis and had a chance to test out certain > disks, would you list the titles that have problems with the Mitsumi so > us purchasers can keep away from them.

I'm going to have to read the manual more often. I just stick my favorite audio disk in the drive and run CDPLAY which came on the installation disk and I've got music. I even put it in my startup file. I can then go about any other task on the machine with music in the background. I have not noticed any conflict with other programs yet, it must not even be using the CPU because I can't find any memory allocated to it while it's playing. Was wondering if anyone else is doing this and if you've discovered any problems in doing this. BTW it does require unplugging the speakers from the Soundblaster and plugging into the drive, but if this is really problem free I may buy a second set of speakers. /JIM/ --- FidoPCB v1.3 [NR] * Origin: The GIFfer in Tampa, FL USA (813)969-1089 USR 16.8DS (1:377/50) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: MICHAEL SELLS Number: 68 To: JIM LAMBERT Date: 05/30/93 2:44p Subj: CD-Rom Catalogs!

Yes, I still have some. If you're just going to run the CD's off of them, the T100 is the way to go (cheaper). If you'd envision running other SCSI devices on the card (these are 8 bit), then a T128 might be the way to go. Personally, I run my HDrives on a 16 bit controller and the CDs on the 8 bit controllers. I have 2 T100 controllers left. I'm asking $25 a piece or $45 for both of them. Each includes the disk and docs that came with my CDrom drive purchase. These are "left over" because I'm daisy chaining the CDs off of one controller and each CD drive came with a controller (that I don't need).

You bet we are and there is going to be a "Busty Babes Vol II", 1000 scans, no penetration shots on this disc--Just locked into the deal this weekend--All material is copyrighted by photographer and he is allowing it to go on the BBS. We expect to bring this disc to market in 45 days (ready to ship). Gorgeous woman, and top notch professional scanning. We are also going through the PowerPak Shareware '93 disk to weed out any potential copyright programs--So that should be ready to go out by 1 July. Vampire's Kiss has been held back due to the fact that we are not happy with the quality of the current movie disc's in the market--Lion's Den *REFUSES* to put out movies unless we feel we can put them out to consumer expectations--So far IBM technology is off the marker, but we did find a company at COMDEX that want to prove us wrong, and want the to do the project with us as a joint venture--SO we are sending them beta clips to see what they are all about-- So we stepped back and re-organized, and are going to try to set a new trend, and raise the standards of the industry, and spare the consumer's from some of the ripoff disc scams-- You will notice more then ever, that unless the disc is licensed material, the publisher won't last long, because the industry is going to see more and more lawsuits against the adult publisher's--CD-ROM awareness is here and no disc is safe now even if it is out of print--We know for a fact that there were scouts up at COMDEX for the sole purpose of buying up disc's for witchhunt purposes......some were after the shareware as well etc.... In a way this was bound to happen, and it should decrease the re-hashing syndrome that is occuring now-- This is another reason why the US plants shutdown--They did not want to be named as a party on any infringement suits etc--They saw this coming, and now that we have been caught, we really did not know how dangerous it was publishing adult/shareware CD's--The honeymoon is over, and the lawsuits are rolling in. So by the end of the year you will only see the strong publisher's survive----What publisher's don't realize is they have no corporate protection with infringement suits, and they are personally liable and stand to lose everything. Some say that they will not disclose info on the disc that can track them personally, and what they don't realize, is the distrib is then liable and will be caught holding the bag--So distribution should be selective in the disc's they carry, because they are as liable as the publisher--So, if you don't have any identification of the publisher on the product, contact address etc, you may want to reconsider carrying the disc--There are people trying to get legislation passed that forces publisher's to reveal their identity-- Just food for thought this year, this is the year of lawsuits which is the infantile step towards CD regulation.

This gives you the cable, manual, drivers for the Pas and another scsi cable as well. >> Is the Texel DM-3024 the best multi-spin, SCSI drive for the >> money on the market right now? From all the experiance we've had with all the system we've sold. The Texel is the best for your $$ so far. It offers very good service and compatiablity as well as more bang for your bucks.

That message from me to you reads in a totally different meaning than what I intended when I typed it. I was just trying to suggest a way of informing your buyers of the change. Please accept my apology!!! I see your point about the shrink wrap. Putting a sticker over the shrink wrap also takes a lot away from the product's visual appeal. Having a separate explanation sheet to go with the CD just complicates life for you and your distributors and other outlets. I wish you great success with your CD.

I have a Zeos 486dx2 66mhz desktop case and it only has one slot available for an internal CD Rom drive, I have 7 expansion slots available and a Vesa slot. Anyway I know I should have gone with the Tower case but too late to worry about that now. Anyway I was thinking of getting 2 external Scsi CD Rom drives but can't figure out how to use the internal SCSI that is built into the zeos with an external cd rom. I was told I needed a external port adapter or something like that. The zeos has a chip that you buy for scsi for $49.00 and install it in the socket on the motherboard. Does anyone know where to get the necessary adapter for extrnal scsi use? I have been reading the messages in here for a long time and it seems as tho the normal non SCSI, drives would work okay on a bbs. What would be required to run 3 external cd rom drives daisy chained? Any info or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. This has been driving me crazy for months as People have been telling me differnet things. Whatever happened to the easy way where you just pop in a card and hook the cd rom up to it and just plug in the other drives to the first drive in a daisy chain arrangement? Someone please clarify the procedure and necessary controllers, cards cables etc for both an SCSI arrangement and a normal non scsi arrangement.

CD Complaint! Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Just a quick note to Echo Ms. Nogas sentiments concerning copyright infringement etc. Publishers like myself and Lions Den have learned the hard way that its not in anyones best interest to infringe upon anyones copyrights. Further anyone doing an infringing disk has two strikes against them #1 is the infringement and #2 is that the "publisher" does not own the disk so another infringer can steal the work and do some of their own infringing. For Example the Seedy Rom Movie Disk #1 is a compilation of 80 minutes of licensed Video footage and we will actively litigate any and all infringements on that disk, as I assure you Lions Den will be doing with their fine work. Bottom line - The Adult disk market will be left to those who do it by the book and the folks infringing on copyrights will find themselves in court. --- GEcho/beta * Origin: The Transporter Room: 8lines 7 gig 10 CD's 704/567-9513 (1:379/1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: TYLER A.

Since there's presently no realtively easy way to preview CDs (shareware or image types), purchasers are left with few options to recoup some of their costs. Selling so-called used CDs at a discounted price, even in perfect condition, seems reasonable to me. Being asked to sell them at "garage sale" prices is unreasonable IMHO.

I unplug the speakers from the SB and plug them into the front of the drive itself. The speakers are very inexpensive KOSS powered stero speakers. I don't remember how much I paid for them but think it was around $40. I set the speaker volume control about mid range and use the volume control on the front of the drive. The PLAYCD utility has a full set of standard playback controls i.e. stop, pause, play, back-a-track, fwd-a-track, and a few others. Only conflict I have run into so far is that when I start an upload it turns off the music, real strange since when I download it remains playing. That's about everything I know about it. There is a small section in the manual that describes it but then who reads manuals. /JIM/ --- FidoPCB v1.3 [NR] * Origin: The GIFfer in Tampa, FL USA (813)969-1089 USR 16.8DS (1:377/50) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: JAMES PORTER Number: 266 To: ALL Date: 06/03/93 1:06a Subj: Hitachi CDROM drive Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Hi all!

It so happens I am not. A while back I entered a few messages warning people away from the FAO gold disk. Well, this was based on my pouring over the disk with Cshow not properly configured. Somwhere back there I lost some files, and reinstalled and... The bottom line is, I recently pulled it out to show someone who said it sounded good what it was like. (I have long since fixed the Cshow problem, but never connected it with my disk scanning) Well, I was happily suprised to find that it was much better than I thought. I feel kind of silly admitting this, but I may have shied a few of you away from a good disk because of my own stupidity. If any of you were considering getting it, do it. It is a good disk with NO BBS Adds. The images are very sharp for the most part. I wish I had known. Of course it was a nice suprise, almost like finding a brand new disk! It has moved the FAO disk up alongside the other profit press disks quality wise. I am very pleased with all of them.

I was very impressed with the way Texel ( & you) packaged everything to protect it.I'm listening to a Neal Young CD on the drive, as I type this. How much would it cost for the cable to connect the back of the CD Rom drive to my Sound Blaster Pro card ? That is the only thing I missed with the kit.The CD Rom drive was pretty much Plug and play. The sound card had a lot of conflicts with my system. Works now though.

Why Mitsumi did this is beyond reason. Somebody could probably make a few bucks by selling audio cables with this configuration since there are so many Mitsumis and SB out there. You know this is the case if you hook up the cable as-is and try and listen to an audio CD thru the headphones-NO SOUND. I clipped and resolder mine and it works like a champ.

Thanks Joe ! You are absolutely correct and there are scouts attending shows now to buy up old and new copies of CD-ROMS for legal evaluation. Not only is this industry having to deal with copyright infringement, but the models that signed releases in the 70's are challenging those releases for pictures showing up on CD-ROMS in '93-- But it's not only the adult side under scrutiny....the shareware authors are filing suits as well--You will see the saturation of shareware CD's drop off because of the shareware authors barring their works from CD-ROMS-- The honeymoon is over and this will surely cut out all the scam artists that live to steal others material to produce their own CD's--This should restore consumer confidence knowing the days of "Re-hashing" are coming to an end. I cannot begin to tell you of the risk and danger of not knowing the origination of shareware files and XXX GIFS--Nobody is safe and we are not the only one that has taken a fall, you will see a few others over the next few months--It's getting to the point where we have to have the shareware authors signature for release before their files can go on CD-- This will definately get rid of the rift raft publishers, as well as give the consumer products they enjoy without worrying about duplications. We are with you--Any of our material found on another disc, will be litigated at whatever cost. -=*>Lee<*=- --- GEcho 1.00+ * Origin: Queen Of Hearts BBS (904)789-6843 (1:3618/23) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: LEE NOGA Number: 473 To: BOB JACKSON Date: 06/06/93 9:41p Subj: Re: Florida Lion's Den In Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No In a message to Lee Noga <06-03-93 12:10> Bob Jackson wrote: BJ>> LN> Got them, Thanks a million--Busty Babes is going backon the mark Change of plans--Busty has been off the market and will die a "Classic" she will not be resurrected--Came to this decesion while at Chicago CES-- Good news--Bringing out another "Busty" disc 100% 1024x768 original pictures.

And with the microscope, I was disappointed when I ran into this one because it's not really a puzzle it's actually another game of strategy. There isn't really a way to help on this one. The only thing I can tell you is to practice and find some strategy. That's how I did it. Also tell your friend not to skip any puzzles or else he or she will not be able to see the ending.

I've been waiting over two weeks now for a netmail-reply ... How else could one explain that you did not reply to my netmail inquiring on prices INCLUDING SHIPPING AND HANDLING and IMPORT-fees to Belgium. This adds to the costs and I would like to know how much more it will cost me !!! Nor did you reply to a FAX-message of Nancy Verbrugghe, Coming Out!-BBS, who was informing on sysop-deals and almost ready to order! I think it's time that Mark Abbacchi and Karen give us some more quotes on prices ... They do appreciate overseas customers. What's the matter with you ... had enough of earning some cash? You sure don't seem very trustful to order some goods of. If you can't answer to our enquiries now .. how long will it take then to send us the CDROMS, huh ??????? Got an answer for this? TO ALL DEALERS WHO WANT TO DO BUSINESS WITH CUSTOMERS IN BELGIUM and give sysopdeals, pleeze send me a message, preferable netmail. I have VISA. And I'm a sucker for good CDROM-deals ;) Looking at the moment for a package deal on Pier1+2 & Night Owls 8 ... and maybe Busty Babes ... I need to know all extra costs you will bill for S/H and export-rights before I order ... I think Mike charges about 89 US$ for this tri-pack without S/H etc. Anyone? And who ships with DHL ? I will gladly inform our belgian CDROM.B area of your prices, and maybe we could organize a group-order ... I've taken it on me to promote CDROM in our Belgian CDROM.b area ... I'm also very active at reviewing the latest CDROMS in our local CDROM-area! No greetz to ya, Mike! Lotta words but poor action if you ask me!

I have checked each unit and refurbished them as needed (which was very little). I am offering some of these drives for sale for a unbelievable price. These units work excellent for BBS systems, and as stand alone units for home use. I have used 3 of these refurished drives for the past 2 years, and have NEVER had a failure! These drives are not high speed, so they are not suited for use with the new CD-ROM game packages, which must use a 350ms access time or better. If you are interested in one or more of these drives, please contact me at my BBS listed below. I know you can find NO deal close to what I am offering, so they will be first come, first serve basis only. Please note the following specifications for the drives, and that the are warrantied for 30 days by me, for cash refund, repair of the unit, or replacement with another but please remember that I am not in business of selling these drives, however, I feel that they are such a good buy, why not offer them to others SysOp's. I have received another 10 drives in good to excellent condition. Hitachi CDR 1503S (CADDYLESS) external CD-ROM drives. Please note that up to four of these drives can be daisy chained (as I use them) together to create one massive file collection. Prices: Bare drive, no controller, or cable............$106.00 SCSI proprietary controller card................$71.00 (8 bit card) Cable for drive.................................$18.00 All price are plus tax and shipping!

The controller for the CDR-3600u can handle 8 drives by itself. It is also fully backwards compatible all the way to the old CDR-1503s drives. As for number of cards per machine, all I can tell you is that there are 7 selectable addresses on the card. There are also no IRQ selects or DMA selects on the card. In theory, this means 7 cards per machine or a theoretical max of 56 CDROM drives in one machine. Now, as for a practical setup... BTW, I believe that Hitachi uses what is called the Phillips BUS. Just a small point of fact, maybe. So, are you looking into picking these drives up? I am still looking for a source for 4 new or used CDR-3600u drives without control cards. Ronald R.

You should instead be blaming me for not forwarding the messages to him in a local message area, but he still would not be able to respond, as I'm not going to pay to crash you netmail, and RC17 has determined that routed NetMail is NOT to be used for business purposes (and I agree with him).

United States Senate Washington, D.C. Dear Senator: I am writing to you as a constituent to inform you of my views regarding S.1521, the most recent anti-pornography bill. It is my hope that the views of people such as myself will be sufficient to urge you to oppose the bill. S. 1521 permits the imposition of punishment--rendering the publishers of work deemed "pornographic" subject to paying damages for the mere publication of written or visual materials-- on a civil scale, penalizing those who speak on the wholly unproven theory that this kind of speech "causes" rape. Such punishment for speech is simply wrong, for several reasons: 1)It is unconstitutional. Even though the bill is limited to speech which would fall into the class of speech called obscene, currently held to be outside of the First Amendment's protection, the Supreme Court has recently held that it is improper to punish even constitutionally unprotected speech because of its viewpoint. R.A.V.v. City of St. Paul. By choosing some "obscene" speech as fit for punishment while leaving the rest alone, this bill violates the Court's ruling in RAV--the only reason the speech is punished is because the image of sexuality it portrays, not because it is obscene. 2) Even if it were constitutional, it goes against the foundation of America's system of government: that people are free to choose between conflicting ideas. By saying that pornography "causes" rape, the bill denies the free will of each and every citizen, diminishing us to the level of idiots who do whatever we are told is good by some publisher. By denying the ability of people to choose, this bill denies the only possible ground for a right to choose how to live our own lives. 3) The bill negates the basic principle that each person is responsible for his or her actions, but not for someone else's. By saying that ideas in porn may be abused by the audience member who decides to rape, the stage is set for full censorship. If any speaker is liable for the harm done by those who abuse his or her ideas, who will be free to speak? Porn is no different from any other kind of entertainment that way -- murderers often imitate TV. Is Matlock the next to go? I sincerely urge you to vote against this dangerous bill.

Everyone is going to have to check the next or last chart to see what I am saying. In the chart, each disk is compared against itself and a value is listed. It has been a while since I have studied math (calculus to be more precise), but I believe that any disk compared against itself should have a value of ONE HUNDRED PERCENT. I have to question the accuracy of the comparisons against other disks if the program cannot get this value correct. At least one disk came up as having 0.0% duplications and most them came up as having less than 1%. Those values must be 100% or they should have some sort of null symbol placed in that square. * Origin: Under The Influence - 16.8k Dual - 815/942-2930 (1:11/120.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: CHRIS BOURNE Number: 593 To: BRANDAN UPSON Date: 06/08/93 12:29p Subj: Cd's Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No > Call me voice at (913)383-9442.

I have a 5 1/4 bay >open if it would be better to get and internal. Internal and External really doesn't matter. Externals are a few dollars more, and take up space. An internal will take up another bay, making it difficult (depending on your case) to add things such as a tape back up (you have to get external, which cost much more). Also, Internals are easier to hook to the sound board...If you go external you may have to purchase an adaptor kit to use with the Soundboard to connect to the Cd-Rom drive. I would look for a drive with no more than 500ms seek time, preferably less than 400. Ideally you should get a multimedia "kit" with a Soundblaster pro. That way you have no compatability problems and the Soundblaster is a lot easier to set up than a Pro Audio Spectrum 16 or Sound Galaxy Pro 16. They make "kits" that come with a Soundblaster Pro and a Sony Cd-Rom drive. --- msged 1.99S ZTC * Origin: Cowboy Country Point Netters (1:303/5.104) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: PAUL JANEL Number: 659 To: STEVE HOLSTEIN Date: 06/10/93 7:24p Subj: Cache Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Hi, Norton (Syscamitic... what ever) has a great caching program that not only caches cd-rom drives, but many other drives as well.

For example, Pier 1 when compared against itself shows .06% duplication. This means that WITHIN Pier1, there is a .06% duplication of filenames, which means that of the roughly 5800 files on the CD, 3 of them share common filenames with 3 other files. Before Pier 2, all shareware CD's had SOME percentage of internal dupes. Pier 2 is the only one I know of that has no duplicate files within its own directories, hence the "0%" rating. Very good if you ask me! Thanks for the reply; I'll be sure to clarify that point when I post the chart again.

Excellent advice, and truely the wave of the industry--Distributor's are getting as paranoid as the publisher's---We appreciate your assistance in getting the word out about copyright infringements, because I would hate to see somebody go through 1/10th of what I have been put through with several suits I have before me. Hence, if we don't have model releases on GIFS, or 100% release of liability, we don't play--Shareware is another big market for suits, and it's getting to the point where a publisher will have to get written permission to use each and every program on the disc-- 1993 has proven to be the year of lawsuits, and between your goodwill and mine, hopefully we can save somebody from making those mistakes innocently that are nailing us bigger companies 2 years later... Publisher's have the potential to make a nice return on their efforts, but most profits end up with the attorneys that represent us--The days for fast/easy bucks are gone forever--Since CD-ROMS are breaking new territories, you need at least 25K in escrow to ward off those that are starting to police and regulate the industry--All our infringements were out of ignorance, and in the Court of law that has little bearing-- Knowing what I do after 2 years in the publishing biz, I wouldn't be one. It's something you really want to take a hard educated look at, legally. The legal side was never a concern 2 years ago, and the days of "HomeGrown" disc's are gone, and most all forthcoming disc's will almost qualify as commercial because of the licensed material to the publisher-- There is no tolerance for the smallest of infringements--Very risky, risky business now.

Well then, friend, this is for you! Call New Century BBS (309)797-6027 or at 1:232/31 and download/FReq CDMAXDOR.ZIP and try it out. You'll be pleased and so will your users. CDMAXDOOR.ZIP is about 175K. Shareware. Fully documented. Automated installation assistance. If you're running MAX and NiteOwl 8, PowerBox v1.00, or PowerPak Gold '92 CD's then this will be a real treat as CDMAXDOOR.ZIP comes with preconfigs for these three CDroms. Give it a try.... if you like it, register it. Unregistered CDMAXDOR.ZIP works fine... but will show a non-registered message and a brief delay every now and then. FReq'able at 1:232/31 as CDMAXDOR.ZIP (175k) Downloadable at New Century BBS (309)797-6027.

Speaking only for myself, but as a cash customer, I don't mind the "send me a catalog" posts. I think in the aggregate they're a coarse indicator of the growing interest in the field, and that's of passing interest to me, personally. I'm not sure it's necessary for the dealers to reply to every such request, but even if they do as a way of being responsive (an excellent business practice), it takes me only a fraction of a second to skip by them. I suppose I could even configure my reader to filter out "catalog" posts if I took the time to do that - but I probably won't bother. I'm trying to understand why a person would stop doing business with a dealer just because some third party asked the dealer for a catalog. That doesn't make any sense to me. I'm not the moderator of this echo, but it seems to operate as a kind of electronic flea market where individuals and merchants alike can sell/trade CDs. If that's even partially true, knowing what's available for purchase is central to the theme. As most dealers offer far more CDs than they ever post listings of here, a catalog of some kind is a necessity. You gave your opinion, now I given mine.

I am really anxious to get those cds, especially the pier2 since I have promised my bbs users that it was going to be up and running at least a week ago. You can imagine the amount of messages I have received from my users enquiring about those disks. I would appreciate some follow up.

We warn folks that it isn't the greatest disk in the world.. however.. it does have MANY MANY new files on it. As far as complaints.. well Shareware 1993.. DEFINITELY.. but not Games 1993.. We are 100% honest with our customers.. let them know up front about verions duping etc.. however... after taking a REALLY good look at the disk.. well.. it isn't really all that bad for a game disk.. according to our CUSTOMERS... not us. Not arguing with you mind you.. just letting you know. We have sold well over 200 of them.. and have had I think TWO complaints.. Customer satisfaction is our 100% goal.. as long as you sell the disk and let the customer know up front what the problems could be.. well.. most folks have no problem with that. It's our 800 number they're on anyway.. as they say.. an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure? At least it's virus free (to my knowledge anyway).. runs on a Mitsumi drive with no problems... Does have a LOT of new stuff on it...and is priced fairly inexpensive... That's 1000% more than I can say for some disks that sell for TWICE the price of this disk! We advise folks to use it as a supplemental disk... so that they can have a larger game file area if that's what they are looking for. One man actually called back and said it's now is favorite resource disk for good games... I stopped a while back trying to "guess" what folks will like and what they won't like. IF there are some problems... we tell them about them... that's the fairest way... if they aren't interested in the particular disk anymore.. then we attempt to satisfy their needs with something else. Thanks for your reply again Stephen... Appreciate the fact that you were looking out for us! Teamwork in the echoes is rare... and is always welcome!

Over doing it would be if you posted a 50 line ad ever other day, singing the same ol' tune & boring the rest of us to tears. Advertising in this echo is like advertising in a magazine - presentation is more important than volume. My own personal opinion is that it's better to have a 90% chance of driving home *one* point than it is to have a 5% chance of driving home many... Keep in mind that the readers of this echo (just like readers of a magazine) make 2 second decisions as to whether or not to read a given ad...

The PCBoard IDX file was created before the Files.BBS and Descript.ion files were laid down on the ROM. This software was designed and developed by Martin Productions. Over 7,000 files using PKWARE, Inc.'s PKZIP (R) 2.04g DeflatX MAXIMUM compression are on this ROM, including .GIF, .WAV, .ICO, and .BMP's. Where there were hundreds of small icon files, we combined them into downloadable 20K files, so there is no inflated file count on this ROM (just so you'll buy the product). All files are True Date Stamped, based on largest file in the archive; there's no false advertising here. If you're a SysOp, we know you care about your users and don't want them thinking that a file just came out when, in fact, it is a year old. We do have older files on our ROM, but if -- and only if -- we feel it is something useful or interesting. NO MISSING FILES OR WASTED TIME! All archive files were scanned with McAfee Associates 5/5/93 SCAN 9.15 V104, which looks for 2,049 different viruses and their variants. All archives have a FILE_ID.DIZ to identify them. If one wasn't present, we added it. Almost no data files are on this ROM. We expect you to find other sources for collections of data-type ROM's, and you can look forward to BigSky #2's being almost all unique digitized images and files. We've listened to you on FidoNet; we monitor the Echos: CD-ROM, CD-ROM sales, VIRUS info, and DIRTY_DOZEN. We've taken the time to find and remove any HACK Report Files, illegal commercial programs, programs that won't run right out of the ZIP file, and anything else we've heard about. Special thanks to the creators of and contributors to the Hack Report. Also, since there are inevitably problems with file descriptions, every BigSky ROM purchaser who sends in the registration card will be given access to PC-Montana's Special File Description Update Area -- FREE -- to download all new updates as they become available. Files listed in DIR files but missing from Disk -- NONE! Duplicate files found in Disk subdirectories -- NONE! Duplicate file names across the whole ROM -- NONE! Files found on Disk but missing from DIR files -- NONE! Duplicate files found in DIR files -- NONE! Files.BBS and Directory Tree have been set up for MOST BBS's. Each subdirectory will have a FILES.BBS detailed description list for operators of WildCat BBS's to load the file descriptions quickly from CD-ROM to their hard disk database. Cost $48.00 We think you'll be happy with this ROM purchase. We have checked the stats to see what users want.

I've seen several (beta) OS2 drivers, but am unsure about 2.1 and installation requirements. 2) What is the latest Mitsumi driver (dates &/or version)? 3) Where can I get the latest drivers for the drive. While I may have the latest now, I doubt they will always be the most current. I received no BBS number, or any contact number for that matter, with the package. 4) I added a Sound Galaxy NX board, that will also serve as a controller for the CD. However, I have only been able to get the software polling driver (supplied with CD, not Sound board) to work with it. The Sound Galaxy has two CD drivers. The one indicated for a Mitsumi drive displays "Panasonic" when it loads, and then fails. I then tried the other driver (thinking that the doc was simply wrong), and got no further. Any help will be appreciated.

Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No In the classified section of the latest PC Magazine (6/29/93 edition) on page 406, there's an ad from an outfit called Romulus Entertainment. Among the adult-oriented CDs they're offering is a new product called "The Interactive Adult Movie Almanac". Their 800 number sales line couldn't tell me squat about the disk and, not being a dealer, I didn't call their "dealer inquiry" line (310-453-5068). The sales line did give me the number for Laser Concepts which they said could help me (818-884-9437). All I've been able to get so far at that number is a phone mail system which appears to work about as well as Trantor's :( . The suggested retail price for the "almanac" is $129.95 (in their dreams!) but, as any of you who know me by now will attest, there's no way I'm plunking down even half of that amount without more data. I'm very interested in having such a disk *IF* it's any good as it would let me clear off about 30 megs of my hard drive that has similar data in it. If it is any good (e.g. not an empty CD, has a usable search engine, etc. etc. etc.), the first dealer to find out and make a reasonable price offering will get the business.

There are no gif's, no music, not adult, and very few programs that are for a specific bbs package. This saved a great deal of disc space that is used to include a wider variety of programs to satisfy the average pc user. Sysops who have only 1 or 2 cd drives find that this is the BEST concept since changing out several disc to offer their users such a selection is not practical. The files are archived with ARJ and the archive comment contains the description of the program inside making it possible to execute "ARJ L " to find out what the program is about without having to extract the docs or look it up in the files.bbs. Since most great programs aren't upgraded every few months about 1/3 of the files are 1991. There are several programs I have written to assist the sysops of several bbs programs (Maximus, Spitfire, Remote Access, Quick BBS and PCBoard) to automatically and INSTANTLY set up Cream of the Crop for their users. If you have ever had to set up a cd rom disc manually you will surely appreciate a utility that will set up the disc in less than two minutes with NO errors! Files.bbs is available in every directory for Sysops of bbs programs that I did not have time (or the necessary information about) to write a utility to automatically set up Cream of the Crop.

Sorry I can't answer your question, but it is funny how software makers will call 640x480x256 Super VGA, when, in fact, it is not. They also think that 320x200 (MCGA) is VGA, when it is not. It is stupid for them to make a true SVGA game because they would lose so many buyers like you. I don't know about Seventh, but for Links386Pro, if it supports your video card, you should be able to use it. I wonder if Seventh uses any specific drivers. There is a difference between VGA and SVGA, believe me. You must not have ever seen true SVGA. Granted, I really don't see that the extra resolution makes a whole lot of difference....That is why it would also be stupid for them to make a tru SVGA game. --- msged 1.99S ZTC * Origin: Cowboy Country Point Netters (1:303/5.104) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: MARC FONTENOT Number: 847 To: BEN NATION Date: 06/15/93 12:32a Subj: items for sale or trade...

If the programmers want to capture this market for themselves.....Maybe they should write a program that can do EVERYTHING. ___ --- Maximus 2.01wb * Origin: The Southern Star - 6 Lines - HST/V32b - 504-885-5928 - (1:396/1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: KEVIN WILLIAMS Number: 872 To: VACLAV VYVODA Date: 06/14/93 8:53p Subj: 7th Guest...

Realize however that the program I used only registers "identical" filenames (without extension) as dupes. Therefore, a file like "PACMAN10.ZIP" on Pier 1 that is updated to "PACMAN11.ZIP" on Pier 2 would not show up as a duplicate. Same goes for the Night Owls.

The PCBoard IDX file was created before the Files.BBS and Descript.ion files were laid down on the ROM. This software was designed and developed by Martin Productions. Over 7,000 files using PKWARE, Inc.'s PKZIP (R) 2.04g DeflatX MAXIMUM compression are on this ROM, including .GIF, .WAV, .ICO, and .BMP's. Where there were hundreds of small icon files, we combined them into downloadable 20K files, so there is no inflated file count on this ROM (just so you'll buy the product). All files are True Date Stamped, based on largest file in the archive; there's no false advertising here. If you're a SysOp, we know you care about your users and don't want them thinking that a file just came out when, in fact, it is a year old. We do have older files on our ROM, but if -- and only if -- we feel it is something useful or interesting. NO MISSING FILES OR WASTED TIME! All archive files were scanned with McAfee Associates 5/5/93 SCAN 9.15 V104, which looks for 2,049 different viruses and their variants. All archives have a FILE_ID.DIZ to identify them. If one wasn't present, we added it. Almost no data files are on this ROM. We expect you to find other sources for collections of data-type ROM's, and you can look forward to BigSky #2's being almost all unique digitized images and files. We've listened to you on FidoNet; we monitor the Echos: CD-ROM, CD-ROM sales, VIRUS info, and DIRTY_DOZEN. We've taken the time to find and remove any HACK Report Files, illegal commercial programs, programs that won't run right out of the ZIP file, and anything else we've heard about. Special thanks to the creators of and contributors to the Hack Report. Also, since there are inevitably problems with file descriptions, every BigSky ROM purchaser who sends in the registration card will be given access to PC-Montana's Special File Description Update Area -- FREE -- to download all new updates as they become available. Files listed in DIR files but missing from Disk -- NONE! Duplicate files found in Disk subdirectories -- NONE! Duplicate file names across the whole ROM -- NONE! Files found on Disk but missing from DIR files -- NONE! Duplicate files found in DIR files -- NONE! Files.BBS and Directory Tree have been set up for MOST BBS's. Each subdirectory will have a FILES.BBS detailed description list for operators of WildCat BBS's to load the file descriptions quickly from CD-ROM to their hard disk database.

Both romdoors are essentially the same... You can have up to 100 disks online, it can be run on nonstandard ports, on any nodes, etc. You make a dir for each cdrom disk and copy text listings of any name in (ex files.bbs or sffiles.bbs). Just make the main menu listing of disks and individual cdrom menu of areas, and after editing the areas paths you should be ready to go. It also has file tagging (up to 20 files), internal "All-DSZ supported protocols", and the feature most useful to you would probably be the lockfile. Since you can have it read the descriptions/tag files right off of the hard drive's text listings, the cdrom is only active when copying to the hard drive before downloads. You can configure it to make a lockfile that exists only when the drive is being accessed, and if another node tries to access it while the lockfile is there, it simply gives the caller "try back in a minute or two please" message.

In my experience, the $1.50 to $5.00 you mention is within those guidelines. It follows then that if a shareware CD producer has several THOUSAND programs on their disk, that even at exorbitant prices, the producers (and dealers) are effectively getting at best (worst?) a few cents per program.

They all contain a broad spectrum of shareware including things like games, utilities, Windows programs, etc. There are also specialty CDs out like CD Winbox that is all Windows files, or Games 1993 that is all games, etc. These all contain current stuff and are BBS ready.

Read on...and reply...I have an attorney interested in hearing your side of the story... From what I can gather from Mark Abachie, The MARKetplace purchased 80 PIER 2 CD-ROM discs directly from Greg Armenia on 21 May 1993. 40 of those CD-ROM discs were held and not shipped to The MARKetplace. Greg Armenia has been paid for ALL of the discs, but will not ship the balance of them to The MARKetplace (for reasons unknown to any party involved). I purchased the PIER 2 CD-ROM disc from The MARKetplace on 17 May 1993. It is now 17 June. I still do not have the disc. Earlier this week I spoke with Greg Armenia on the phone and was amazed at how overtly rude and obnoxious he was. At this point I am quite sure that I will not be doing any more business with PIER Software. What I would like to do is compile a listing of people who are involved with this incident, talk with you individually, and see what line of action we can take to remedy the problem. Your cooperation in this matter would be greatly appreciated. I am looking forward to getting this situation resolved quickly and to NEVER having to deal with PIER again. cc: Greg Armenia ->PIER1 Mark Abachie ->MARKETPLACE State Attorney General - New York (via US Mail) Buffalo Better Business Bureau (via US Mail) Public Message to ALL in CD-ROM and Sysops For Sale Public Message to ALL in several Usenet Newsgroups --- Ozone Online Operations, Inc. z P.O.

Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No This note is to the customers and prospective customers of The MARKetplace, who either have pre-ordered the PIER Shareware #2 disk, or are considering ordering from The MARKetplace! On Wednesday, May 19, 1993 we sent a check in the amount of $2050.00 to the Pier Exchange, for an order of 100 of the new Pier #2 CDROM disks + $50 for shipping over night via UPS red service. The check was received by the PIER Exchange on May 20th, 1993 and was paid by our bank on May 21st. The disks were supposed to be in the Pier Exchange's hands on Friday, May 21st, however, due to a delay with the manufacturer, the disks did not make it to the publisher. On Monday, in the late morning, I phoned Mr. Greg Armenia and asked him if the disks had come in, and he stated that they had. I asked him if they would be shipped that day, and he stated that they would. At approximately 5:00pm Eastern time, we received an emergency break in call through one of our business lines from Mr. Armenia. He stated that his "bank had notified him" that our check had not cleared. Knowing that this was completely impossible, I informed him that he must be in fact mistaken. However, he persisted with his statements that "the last time this happened, (the bank had notified him of a 'problem' with a check) that the check had in fact bounced. Now mind you, we have been in a business relationship with this gentleman for several months, and have written SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS of company checks to him... always PRE PAID for his disks.. and NEVER has he had a problem with our checks. Nor has ANYONE else for that matter! However, to stifel this conversation, while on the line with Mr. Armenia, I had an associate call our bank, and verify that the check had in fact cleared our bank, meaning that it had been paid to Mr. Armenia's account. As suspected, our bank confirmed the fact that he had cashed the check, and that it had in fact been paid to his bank in full for $2050.00 on May 21st. Mr. Armenia still apparently still didn't believe me... therefore, since it was already after 5:00pm on the East Coast, and we NEEDED the disks to be shipped that night, I gave him my Social Security number (as one of the officers of The MARKetplace this is required to receive account information) and my banks phone number. I instructed him to call them and pose as ME... and ask if this particular check had cleared. After about 10 minutes, he called me back, and stated that the check had in fact cleared. I told him that I expected my disks to be shipped that evening via UPS RED overnight service. He said, "You'll get your disks", and hung up the phone. On Tuesday, May 25, 1993, UPS delivered a box via Overnight service from the PIER Exchange. Upon opening the box, I found only 60 of my 100 disks WHICH I PREPAID! Still being quite upset at having both my personal honor, and our company's integrity being questioned the previous evening.... I called Mr. Armenia and stated the following: "Greg, I assume there was a mistake yesterday, and that I'll have 40 more disks on my doorstep tomorrow.... Right?" It was at this time that Mr. Armenia stated "NOPE"! At this time, I asked why not, and what was his reasoning! He stated that the disks were on backorder. I asked him if he had enough disks to ship me, and he said that he did.. however, that he had shipped 60% of my order, and that was all that I was going to get for "a few weeks". I inquired as to his reasons for not filling the entire order... and at this time he told me.. and I quote... "Mark, I know all about your' little scheme"... I asked him what he was talking about... He said, "I have customers cancelling their orders, because of your little post card to your previous customers, allowing them to buy my disk for $39.00"... It should be noted at this time that Mr. Armenia had been informed previous to our sending out the cards as to their content, and the "special" price to our previous customers. I simply asked him at this time, "Yeah, so? why aren't you sending my other 40 disks". He stated that he didn't want the disk sold this cheap! (It should also be noted that Mr. Armenia is selling the disks for $39.00 in the RIME SYSOPS FOR SALE echo.. AND he is giving free shipping.. making the disks even cheaper than ours!) I informed him that I expected my disks immediately, as 60 disks didn't allow me to fulfill my pre orders completely. He stated that it would be weeks before I saw the 40 disks, and furthermore that we would never touch another one of his products again after that. I told him that I expected either the disks, or the $800 for the disks to be refunded immediately, and he stated that he would not send the money back, and it would be "at least a couple of weeks" before I got the disks. Furthermore, he stated, "You won't have your hands in MY son's cookie jar again".. whatever that is supposed to mean. SOOOOOO...... we sent 60 of you nice folks who ordered the disks from us your disks..... The rest of you.. well.. you are the C.O.D.'s and we have tried to get a few disks from other dealers. Apparently, the only dealer who has the disks right now is Mike Shannon at Star Vector.. he ordered and received an initial shipment of 50 disks. He agreed to sell us 10 disks at $45.00 each.. so we can sell them to you for $39.00 in order to fill our orders. We really appreciated the offer.. but we'll have to work something else out. What caused this? WHO KNOWS! When will we get either our money back, or our shipment of disks.. well.. again, who knows. No one is out any money other than us. The Pier Exchange has $800 of our dollars, or 40 of our disks, however you choose to look at it. Don't worry.. we'll do everything we can to keep our promises to you... our VALUED customers. Unfortunately, this situation is beyond our control. It's been over 30 days now since he cashed our check... and we are still waiting.. no disks, no phone call, no letter telling us what's going on.. no NOTHING..

BTW, Mike accepts plastic, is very knowlegable, friendly, and ships same day (at least for me and several others here in Fort McMurray). I only mention this because I am looking for a Canadian CD distributor that desires to compete with the Americans. The only one I have found to date is Vince Sorensen (sp?) in Regina. Unfortunately, he does not offer anything I am currently looking for. Bring your prices down and you won't have to target your ads to the Americans. There are plenty of Canadians that feel like I do.

I just got three disks, I will give a review on one of them now, and the other two when I get a chance :-) Digital Dreams Price $28 to $50: I got this CD in the mail yesterday, and it was put together nicely. It has discreet images, and a discreet label on the disk and the jewel case. It looks as if there was hundreds of files in one big pot, then just distributed into several sub directories. I couldn't really see any rime or reason. All the scans are tasteful, and would work on almost any BBS. I do have some criticism with the scans though. The docs that came with it, say that most images was scanned at 800x600 or 1024x768. They could have been scanned at that and reduced, some are that size, but the quality is bad. Maybe I shouldn't say bad, but sure is not as good as all the other scans I have seen. It looks as though the scans was done on a cheap scanner, or the scans came from a scan of a magazine. There are tiny lines through out all the pictures, and the quality of the pictures are generally average to poor. I have a Nec 4fg, and I know good pictures :-) The beauty of the women, are from average to good looking. I wouldn't say any of them are great, nor would I say any of them are bad looking. (( JT's Rating on a scale of 1 to 5: )) "production" is the way the disk is put together, organized, including documentation, ect. "price" is if the price is reasonable for what you get. "Quality" in files, is how new the programs are, how many dupes, and general quality in the files. In Gifs, it is how the pictures look in general, and the quality of the subject matter. "Overall" Average of the above ratings. Production: 4 Price: 4 Quality: 2 Overall: 3.3 on a scale of 1 (BAD!) to 5 (GREAT!) Let me know if you like this type of review. I will try to keep them constant. I don't work for a CD company, and I don't sell CD's (unless I'm trading with someone :-)) I'm just a sysop with several years experience. * JTEDIT 1.0 * If this were an actual tagline, it would be funny. --- WM v2.09/92-0566 * Origin: Rocky Mtn.

Shane Which driver can you not load? the ???.SYS driver, or the MSCDEX.EXE driver? Remember that MSCDEX comes with DOS 6 and you should not use an older one. As far as the ???.SYS driver goes, if you put the correct version number in SETVER, you also need this line in your CONFIG.SYS before the ???.SYS driver is loaded: DEVICE=C:\DOS\SETVER.EXE This loads and activates Setver. Also be sure that since you're using DOS 6's MSCDEX, that SETVER has no entry for it (i.e. type SETVER MSCDEX.EXE /D at a DOS prompt). - T\/: FIDO 1:371/39.11; INTERNET Todd.Vierling@p11.f39.n371.z1.fidonet.org --- * Origin: T\/-Land: Only Amiga makes it possible.

There is a lot of chatter from ASP authors in the Fido ASP conference and on CompuServe saying that they don't want their programs distributed on a CD and that their DOC files say so. Some are even threatening to sue if they find their stuff on a CD.

This review is broken up into several FIDO posts: Statistics, Operations (Part A), Operations (Part B), Operations (Part C), Visual (Part A), Visual (Part B), and Visual (Part C). I've done this to keep each post rather small because I'm not sure how long a message FIDO (or my local BBS) can handle. Please bear with me while I learn the ropes here. If you collect all the parts mentioned above, in the given sequence, you'll have the whole enchilada. I'd very much appreciate feedback on the FORMAT AND STYLE of my review so I can improve future ones. Thanks! For the record, I've owned and viewed over 40 "adult" CDs with an aggregate image count near 100,000. I've "messed with" a lot of image viewing and processing software. In a previous life, I was a photographer who did, among other types, nude stills in both color and B&W. I've done all steps from model interview through final print processing. I don't claim to be an "expert" (whatever that is), but I do know good image characteristics from bad ones. Still, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder so remember, what follows IS ONE PERSON'S OPINION. Statistics ========== This section focuses on the numerical data relative to the physical contents of the CD. Digital Dreams (DD) has 1598 GIF images on it, not counting the 480 "catalog" GIFs nor the 8 miscellaneous GIFs included in the GIFV directory along with the built-in viewer. Therefore, for this review, "GIFs" is taken to mean the single-image "feature" files and therefore excludes the catalogs and miscellaneous images, unless explicitly addressed as such. There are 14 GIF directories with 100 GIFs each, and two directories that have 99 GIFs each - hence the 1598 total count. There are 578,272,904 bytes given over to these 1598 images for an average size of 361,872 bytes. That's a pretty hefty size for even a 256-color GIF leading one to conjure up ideas of large, hi-rez images. Here, that number only goes to prove how deceptive statistics can be, as will be seen a bit later on in the Operations sections. There are no duplicate GIF file names on DD, nor are there any duplicate GIF images that could be revealed by either electronic audit (name, size, and checksum) or by actual viewing. Operations (Part A) to follow. --- * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 1340 To: ALL Date: 06/27/93 4:07p Subj: Review of "Digital Dreams" Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Operations (Part A) =================== The entirety of this section focuses those aspects of the CD that effect convenience and usability. Accordingly, it is more subjective than the statistical section. There are several files with file descriptions in them. These have names like: PCBOARD, QBBS-RA, SPITFIRE, and WILDCAT which I presume maps to their applicability to like-named BBS software. Not being a sysop, I can on speculate about this. I did scan through a couple of these text files and the contents seemed to be appropriate. The directories are sequentially numbered (e.g. DD1-0100) and therefore offer no clue to their contents. File names are similarly constructed and are accordingly no more revealing (e.g. DD1_0350). However, since all the images are more or less the same with respect to subject matter, it's not clear that this identification scheme is a drawback. As previously eluded to, there is a built-in GIF viewer. It's a shareware package called "GIFReed". The DD authors make a splash about this program in their documentation, but I wasn't impressed by it. It's most useful feature was the ability to automatically center, both horizontally and vertically, a small image on the screen - something it got to do a lot with DD images. A thorough review of it would be out of scope here, so I won't go into that. What is worth saying is that if one wants to take advantage of DD's image catalogs WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL EFFORT, then they'll have to use this program. Of course, ALL the images on DD can be viewed with any other GIF viewer. If one doesn't mind putting forth a bit of additional effort, the shareware program called GDS - Graphical Display System - will do a MUCH better job of creating point-and-click catalogs. Of course, GDS will use HDD (or floppy) space for its catalogs whereas DD's GIFReed catalogs are already on the CD and therefore don't take up HDD space. It's worth noting that DD's authors suggest copying GIFReed and the right catalogs (more on this later) to your HDD to boost performance. Operations (Part B) to follow. --- * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 1341 To: ALL Date: 06/27/93 4:08p Subj: Review of "Digital Dreams" Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Operations (Part C) =================== The included copy of GIFReed is too crippled IMHO, to permit any real "try before buy" evaluation, not to mention the highly annoying beeps, messages, warnings, etc. that go along with the crippled functionality. More to the point, as implemented by DD's authors, about half of each catalog image is occupied by a large, rather garish title that adds NO VALUE to the catalog image. The end result is that the 28 to 36 "thumbnail" images per catalog are crowded into VERY slightly more than the lower half of the screen. You can run the math yourself: On my 15" FS monitor, the usable screen is about 10.8" wide (horizontally, not diagonally). At 1024x768 resolution, that makes about 95 pixels per usable inch. Half of a 1024x768 screen spread wall-to-wall between 36 images gives about 11,000 pixels, about 105 pixels square, per image. Compare that to the 95 pixels per inch from above, add in some room for titles, space between images, and gentle reader you'll see that the DD catalogs images must be and are truly TINY. Look at your thumbnail - DD's producers chose their word correctly! True, they give a glimpse of what the "full sized" (more on THIS later in Visual) image looks like, but barely. True, a mouse click on the reduced image brings up the real one so you don't have to stare at the catalog images for very long. Still, why the authors chose to surrender half the screen's real estate to a useless title is beyond me. One probable clue came while I was "beating" on GIFReed. While the cataloging capability is missing in the crippled version, I did get far enough into the process to see the part where a title gets inserted. It wasn't entirely clear that either (a) the title could be omitted altogether, or (b) one had control over how large the mandatory title space is. In short, once DD's authors chose GIFReed, and elected to have it run directly from the CD, they may have been somewhat locked in on how the catalog screens looked. Again, IMHO, GDS offers far more capability, flexibility, and usability. Sysops and end users alike will find a lot to like in GDS - like "door" compatibility that let's users create a custom catalog on-the-fly of tagged GIFs and then D/L it thereby saving both the sysop and user a LOT of time and grief.

Since all the GIFs have names that begin with "DD1_", I didn't bother checking against my CD GIF name data base of nearly 50K unique names. I was confident I wouldn't find any duplicates there that would prove out to be valid. The authors of DD make a point about all the GIFs being scanned at either 1024x768x256 or 800x600x256 resolution, and that they (the GIFs) were "...rather painstakingly picked out." For my money, they didn't go through enough pain, or else they were trying to save some for the customer. First, very few of the images are even close to being full-screen. Most are considerable smaller, some unacceptably small by my standards. One of DD's "better" images, all things considered, is DD1_0065. This image is actually 563x757x256 or about half of a 1024x768x256 screen. While it may be true that the authors' scanner was always set for a high resolution, it's a mistake to think that very many of the images are able take full advantage of it. More importantly, ALMOST ALL of the images have a very distracting "grainy" quality about them. They're just not sharp and clear. OK...OK... Sometimes the "looking through gauze" effect can be appealing by giving the image a kind of ethereal or "sleepy" look. That's not what I'm talking about here, folks. Either the source photographs were lousy, or a cheap or maladjusted scanner was used, or somebody didn't know what they were doing, or whatever, but SOMETHING went wrong. Most every single image is this way - grainy. It is, in my mind, reminiscent of the image quality (NOT subject matter) on Volcano, only worse. It makes you keep trying to re-focus your eyes, and that doesn't help.

This review is broken up into several FIDO posts: Statistics, Operations (A), Operations (B), Operations (C), Visual (A), Visual (B), and Visual (C). I've done this to keep each post rather small because I'm not sure how long a message FIDO (or my local BBS) can handle. Please bear with me while I learn the ropes here. If you collect all the parts mentioned above, in the given sequence, you'll have the whole enchilada. I'd very much appreciate feedback on the FORMAT AND STYLE of my review so I can improve future ones. Thanks! For the record, I've owned and viewed over 40 "adult" CDs with an aggregate image count near 100,000. I've "messed with" a lot of image viewing and processing software. In a previous life, I was a photographer who did, among other types, nude stills in both color and B&W. I've done all steps from model interview through final print processing. I don't claim to be an "expert" (whatever that is), but I do know good image characteristics from bad ones. Still, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder so remember, what follows IS ONE PERSON'S OPINION. Statistics ========== This section focuses on the numerical data relative to the physical contents of the CD. Pork-Ware I (PW1) has 2014 GIF images on it, plus 35 Targa files. The CD has 22 image directories, 21 for GIFs and 1 for the Targa files. The directories are named X01...X22 thereby in themselves giving no clue to their individual contents. In reality, the images are split across directories according to subject matter (See Operations below). There are a total of 632,783,505 bytes of GIF files making an average of 314,192 bytes per GIF. Make no mistake about it, there are some very large GIFs on this CD. The 35 Targa files occupy 21,848,140 bytes for an average of 624,232 bytes each - actually somewhat small by Targa standards. There are NO duplicate file names on the CD, nor exact duplicate GIF images that could be revealed by an electronic audit of names, file sizes, and checksums. Checked against a 47,000+ GIF file unique name data base, there were 833 "hits" indicating that, on a file name basis, about 41% of the files are potentially duplicated on other adult CDs. The "hit" distribution was as follows: Seedy 6-Pak: 428 7th Heaven: 114 Busty Babes: 46 Ecstasy: 164 FAO-2: 52 FAO-3: 53 FAO-GOLD: 91 PCPIX-1: 55 PCPIX-2: 38 PCPIX-3: 60 Visual Fntsy: 41 Storm-3: 65 Now before anyone says: "Hey, all those hits add up to more than 833.", recall that a given GIF file name may be duplicated on more than one other CD. Operations to follow.

Accordingly, it is more subjective that the statistical section. There are file listings included on the CD. These are the two-line description type with a header at the beginning of the file. Not being a sysop, I'm not sure this makes PW1 "BBS ready" or not. The file descriptions seemed accurate enough on casual scan. As said, the file directories are named X01 through X22. The Targa files are alone in directory X20, with the GIF files occupying the rest. The PW1 CD that I received had a 3-1/2" diskette with it labeled "Pork-Ware Installation Disk". As I discovered from it, there apparently is, or will be, a "Pork-Ware 2" CD as provision was made to install either from this same diskette. Even though shareware versions of both CSHOW and VPIC are included on the CD, the installation procedure forces VPIC as the choice. More interesting than that is that the installation program only runs under Windows 3.1 (or later). That's a little wierd if you ask me! All the install program really does is to attempt to configure VPIC to your hardware by running the "WHICHVGA" program and then VPIC's configuration program. This will probably work for most older video boards, but it failed to correctly recognize and configure for my S3-based board. After that, the user is given the choice of having "VIEWPORK.BAT" copied to the DOS sub-directory of the HDD. Since it's likely the DOS sub-directory is in the PATH statement, PW1's authors seem to be trying to make it easy to look at the CD's contents by entering VIEWPORK from any command line prompt. The .BAT file is large (about 4K bytes) and clumsily written owing to PW1's authors not having or at least not using and ASK.COM or equivalent. Well, at least they tried. What was useful from examining the VIEWPORK.BAT file was learning that the contents of the GIF directories are indeed organized by subject matter. A printout of that .BAT file reveals that PW1 and PW2 are slightly different; more importantly, it allowed me to clip and save the PW1 index and keep it with the CD for future reference. I didn't use the versions of CSHOW or VPIC that were included on PW1, but instead used my personal favorite image file viewer (GDS) for the rest of the examination. Both of these programs are generally very well-known. For those users without a preference, or perhaps even a viewer, I'm sure either one (or any other of a number of similar viewers) would be adequate for starters. Further review of them here is therefore unwarranted. Visual to follow.

Accordingly, it is more subjective that either of the two preceding sections and should be taken as such. PW1 is a full-blown "X" CD. Some of it's images are as "raw" as any you're likely see on any CD containing similar material. Having said that, it's worth noting that PW1 doesn't contain any "furry sex" or other really "fringe" material. That's not to say the images aren't graphic - they are. In addition to the explicit sex images, there's a considerable population of nude images. Many of these are from the PIC series and the LADYR series. Most but not all of the images have a BBS logo on them. I made it a point to view each of the "non-hit" images. As I suspected, there were some "old friends" lurking in there under changed names. I didn't keep strict count, but I'd estimate that of the 1181 "non-hits", about 25% were in this category. On the other hand, of the non-hit file names, 28% had Village Adult BBS file names indicating that they were, as far as my data base is concerned, "new" images. If you're into 24-bit color, you'll appreciate the 35 Targa files included on PW1. They do look slightly smoother than 256-color images, but not by much to these tired eyes. Eight-bit color seems to do quite well rendering flesh tones, etc. I actually converted a few of the Targa images to 256-color and could see differences, but they were small ones. For pictures of humans, IMHO the extra space required by 24-bit color isn't worth it. Since most of the images are obviously scans from some of the larger and better known "houses" (e.g. McHenry, Prizm, Village, etc.), the intrinsic image quality of the images is quite good on the whole. As with any similar adult CD, there are a few misses, but not that many. All in all, if you don't have an adult CD and want ONE with a variety of material on it, including a mix of nudes and "X", this isn't a bad choice. It's better than XXX Extreme (aka Physical Therapy); better than the Nix Pix series (which personally I regard as poor); and a LOT better than either Giffy Gold or Digital Dreams with respect to the nude collection. If you already have several adult CDs, this one won't add much to your collection.

I have been looking at both the Pioneer DRM-600A & DRM-604X changer. As i have read the 604X is twice as fast as the 604X. The difference is the 604X is 300ms with 612kb transfer rate compared to the 600A's 153kb transfer rate. Ok, Its twice as fast. The modem only transfers at 14.4k and soon to be 28.8k. That is still faster than 28.8k And it also says you can either use a 8 bit or 16 bit controller for either drive. If someone could enlighten me on a few things such as. Software compatability, Drivers. Which is best for a BBS? Speed is importand dont get me wrong. But as long as its fast enough to run the bbs without any long stretch waiting time.

The salesman quoted prices of $419 for a bare drive and $439 for a bundle with a SCSI cable and the Software Toolworks US Atlas CD (shipping $10 additional). I opted for the bundle. My money order for $449 went out on April 12, 1993. I was told when I ordered that the drive was in stock. This was not the case, and I called back two weeks later to be told by a receptionist who sounded like she didn't even know what she was doing that "it would ship tomorrow". It didn't. I did receive a call from a salesman telling me that they were out of stock on the Atlas and offered me an alternative disk. I stated that I would just wait until the Atlas came in and they could ship it separately. Well, in mid-May the drive finally arrived. No Toshiba box. NO CABLE. NO DRIVERS. A "manual" that was copied and hand-stapled. No warranty information or registration card. I have called repeatedly asking for the cable and have been told multiple times (I think by Miss Stoned-and-Not-Caring, unfortunately) that the cable was on its way. Then I finally got to speak with someone who sounded like she was in charge, but acted like a TOTAL BITCH. After finally acquiescing and agreeing to send me the cable, I came home this past Thursday to find a Federal Express notice on my door saying that I had a COD package. The shipper? CD-ROM DIRECT. The COD amount? $439!!! They sent me another God-Damned Drive! (And probably without a cable! ) So here I am nearly three months after my initial order without a useable drive. If anyone from CD-ROM DIRECT monitors this echo, and if you think that you're going to ruin my credit by making me refuse a COD package you can go STRAIGHT TO HELL. I am calling your Better Business Bureau first thing on Monday morning and pursuing this matter to the fullest extent of the law.

The PCBoard IDX file was created before the Files.BBS and Descript.ion files were laid down on the ROM. This software was designed and developed by Martin Productions. Over 7,000 files using PKWARE, Inc.'s PKZIP (R) 2.04g DeflatX MAXIMUM compression are on this ROM, including .GIF, .WAV, .ICO, and .BMP's. Where there were hundreds of small icon files, we combined them into downloadable 20K files, so there is no inflated file count on this ROM (just so you'll buy the product). All files are True Date Stamped, based on largest file in the archive; there's no false advertising here. If you're a SysOp, we know you care about your users and don't want them thinking that a file just came out when, in fact, it is a year old. We do have older files on our ROM, but if -- and only if -- we feel it is something useful or interesting. NO MISSING FILES OR WASTED TIME! All archive files were scanned with McAfee Associates 5/5/93 SCAN 9.15 V104, which looks for 2,049 different viruses and their variants. All archives have a FILE_ID.DIZ to identify them. If one wasn't present, we added it. Almost no data files are on this ROM. We expect you to find other sources for collections of data-type ROM's, and you can look forward to BigSky #2's being almost all unique digitized images and files. We've listened to you on FidoNet; we monitor the Echos: CD-ROM, CD-ROM sales, VIRUS info, and DIRTY_DOZEN. We've taken the time to find and remove any HACK Report Files, illegal commercial programs, programs that won't run right out of the ZIP file, and anything else we've heard about. Special thanks to the creators of and contributors to the Hack Report. Also, since there are inevitably problems with file descriptions, every BigSky ROM purchaser who sends in the registration card will be given access to PC-Montana's Special File Description Update Area -- FREE -- to download all new updates as they become available. Files listed in DIR files but missing from Disk -- NONE! Duplicate files found in Disk subdirectories -- NONE! Duplicate file names across the whole ROM -- NONE! Files found on Disk but missing from DIR files -- NONE! Duplicate files found in DIR files -- NONE! Files.BBS and Directory Tree have been set up for MOST BBS's. Each subdirectory will have a FILES.BBS detailed description list for operators of WildCat BBS's to load the file descriptions quickly from CD-ROM to their hard disk database. Cost $48.00 We think you'll be happy with this ROM purchase. We have checked the stats to see what users want.

Sure can. In the config.sys you load the driver for each of the drives, just make shure that the drive designator (MSCD001, MSCD002 exc.) or (CDROM01) is different becouse you only have to load MSCDEX.EXE once in your autoexec.bat and have the drive designators that coraspond to the ones in your config.sys on the command line. like C:\CDROM\MSCDEX /D:CDROM01 /D:CDROM02 /DCDROM03 /DMSCD01 /E /V /S /M:64 .

Several directories--"Bad" according to Federal guidelines, gross violation of the Federal Obscenity laws (Beastiality etc)--Hate to go before a grand jury, and ask them if they feel the same way the Gov't feels--Not all XXX is taboo, just select areas are documented/known to be a violation of law, this disc has directories devoted to the "Taboo", and it makes it intentional vs accidental inclusion of a few random scans. The courts will hold the distributor liable as well, and can charge them with distribution of Federally illegal material.....that's why is is important that distribs know the products they carry--Which brings me back to the Top 10 distribs in the US, none of them will get near this disc for whatever reason for just this reason.

Like computers themselves, CD drive technology seems to be really heating up - probably due to the soaring demand within the industry in general.

The CH> salesman quoted prices of $419 for a bare drive and $439 for a CH> bundle with a SCSI cable and the Software Toolworks US Atlas CD CH> (shipping $10 additional). I opted for the bundle. My money CH> order for $449 went out on April 12, 1993. I was told when I CH> ordered that the drive was in stock. This was not the case, CH> and I called back two weeks later to be told by a receptionist CH> who sounded like she didn't even know what she was doing that CH> "it would ship tomorrow". It didn't. I did receive a call CH> from a salesman telling me that they were out of stock on the CH> Atlas and offered me an alternative disk. I stated that I CH> would just wait until the Atlas came in and they could ship it CH> separately. Well, in mid-May the drive finally arrived. No CH> Toshiba box. NO CABLE. NO DRIVERS. A "manual" that was copied CH> and hand-stapled. No warranty information or registration CH> card. I have called repeatedly asking for the cable and have CH> been told multiple times (I think by Miss CH> Stoned-and-Not-Caring, unfortunately) that the cable was on its CH> way. Then I finally got to speak with someone who sounded like CH> she was in charge, but acted like a TOTAL BITCH. After finally CH> acquiescing and agreeing to send me the cable, I came home this CH> past Thursday to find a Federal Express notice on my door CH> saying that I had a COD package. The shipper? CD-ROM DIRECT. CH> The COD amount? CH> $439!!! They sent me another God-Damned Drive! (And probably CH> without a cable! ) So here I am nearly three months after CH> my initial order without a useable drive. If anyone from CH> CD-ROM DIRECT monitors this echo, and if you think that you're CH> going to ruin my credit by making me refuse a COD package you CH> can go STRAIGHT TO HELL. I am calling your Better Business CH> Bureau first thing on Monday morning and pursuing this matter CH> to the fullest extent of the law. CH> DO NOT ORDER FROM CD-ROM DIRECT!!!!!! This definitely sounds like a mail order going sour. I started shopping around for a CD-ROM drive around mid-April, and saw a post by Mohit Goyal that he bought a 3401B internal for $399+$29 COD. But I am interested in the external one, since I got a Compaq Deskpro/I with a low-profile case, and the only open drive bay is used up by a Teac 5.25" floppy. I called CD-ROM Direct and they quoted me a price of $499, which at first sounded cheap considering local stores sold them for $589 and up back then. When I asked if it is original from Toshiba, the salesperson told me it is a Toshiba drive with a 3rd party case enclosure. But when I asked further, he couldn't tell me who made it, what warranty it carried, and I had to ship the whole darn thing back for service. Still, I decide to cheap out and placed an order with them, the total would come up to $528 COD. A week later, when I called back for status, I was told the order was cancelled! And that day was the last day of the $499 offer, after which the price went up to $544. And I thought:"BLEAUGH! I SMELL A ROTTEN EGG!!" So I quit dealing with them, and eventually got one in May locally for $530+8.25% CA tax=$573.73. The drive is genuine Toshiba 3401E, casing and all, with manufacturing date stamped MAY 1993. It's a deal for peace of mind.

I didn't the organization (Tree) on the CD. For one thing, the directories were n sorted. If you do a dir, you get a mix of files, and dir's in your listi It is simple for a CD producer to run PCtools, or Norton, etc on the directory to sort it, before coping, and making CD's. Another complaint was the directory structure. All the Windows stuff was in f:\win\whatev all the BBS files was in f:\bbs\whatever. Note: some folks may like it this way. When loading on a BBS, it seams to work better when all the directories are in the Root directory. By having sub directories, makes it more difficult to load on a BBS. One thing that is great, is that eac directory had a single line listing Areas.bbs included. A nice addition, is that the CD came inside a bound colorful book (man that had a listing of all the files on the CD. The book is very handy, i you normally print out the files listing, so you have a hard copy. This way, you have a nice little compact hard copy of the files listing. Ther are 59 directories with just about any category you can think of. The files all look fairly new, and are Zip'ed. I one complaint, is that the files are Zip'ed with the new Zip. Lots of folks are not using the new Zip, and this causes problems. Those that are using the new zip is because of the extra compression it performs to save hard disk space. a CD the amount of space doesn't really matter, much. Another complaint each Zip file has an Add in it for the CD. As a sysop, I would rather i not have an ADD for the CD in each Zip file. (( JT's Rating on a scale of 1 to 5: )) "production" is the way the disk is put together, organized, including documentation, etc. "price" is if the price is reasonable for what you get. "Quality" in files, is how new the programs are, how many dupes, and gen quality in the files. In Gifs, it is how the pictures look in general, and the quality of the subject matter. "Overall" Average of the above ratings. Production: 3 Price: 4 Quality: 5 Overall: 4 on a scale of 1 (BAD!) to 5 (GREAT!) I will try to keep my reviews constant. I don't work for a CD company, and I don't sell CD's (unless I'm trading with someone :-)) I'm just a sysop with several years experience. Jim Taylor 1:310/5 I have a Winbox review forth coming, then I'm out of new CD's to review. If some one wants to send me CD's to review with postage to send the CD back, I will do more reviews. I don't want to keep the CD's, because if I did, the reviews would loose credibility. (That is if they have any credibility now (GRIN)) Jim --- WM v2.09/92-0566 * Origin: Rocky Mtn.

Bubba, (or whatever your name is) Let me make one thing clear here. I NEVER, repeat N-E-V-E-R told you a check would be OK for your first COD with us. I clearly stated when you called that the UPS driver would need CASH, CERTIFIED CHECK, or a MONEY ORDER as payment for the CD's you ordered from us. We were unfortunately forced to take this policy many years ago when we first started shipping COD, because 20-30% of the checks we received were bad. Therefore, I have never told ANYONE that a check, be it personal, business or otherwise is acceptable on a COD order, so your above claim is absolutely false. Furthermore, when I spoke with you on the phone, you seemed apologetic, and told me OUTRIGHT that you would reimburse us for the shipping, and that a check would be mailed immediately for the lost shipping charges, AND one of the CD's that you decided you wanted after all. Well, here it is some months later. Where's my check? To make matters worse, when I jokingly tried to jog your memory with a gag about sending "Vinnie and Guido" to collect, you flew into a tantrum, and flamed me THREE times on this public echo. Here it is months later, and I would just as soon forget about you and the whole mess, but you keep bringing it up again and again! Well enough already! You brought all this on yourself by stiffing us on a COD, then promising to pay for the shipping, and then reneging on that promise and flaming me because I reminded you of it! You know, you could have avoided this whole conflict in a very simple manner. If you didn't have the exact amount for the COD, why didn't you simply tell the UPS driver to return the following day with the package? If you really wanted the CD's, that would have been the easiest solution, so why didn't you take it? Guess you were just looking for an excuse to pick a fight with someone huh? Well take your piss-ant attitude and go bother someone else for a change. .\\ike --- þ SLMR 2.1a þ Used taglines for $ale - 8 bits each.

Still, my experience (and the stats from my data base) say that it would be hard to go wrong with Busty Babes, or Ecstasy, or the PCPIX series. BB and Ecstasy are both "BBS ready". Vol 2 & 3 of the PCPIX series include file descriptions, but Vol 1 doesn't. HOWEVER, PCPIX vol 3 has a file with the listings for Vol 1 as well. There are VERY few repeats across the PCPIX series and the images are generally quite nice. If you were looking for just a few CDs, I think you'd be happy choosing from these. --- FreeMail 1.07b * Origin: The Bit Bucket * Houston, Tx * 713/496-9670 * (1:106/9670) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 1606 To: ALL Date: 07/01/93 12:37p Subj: GIF Name Data Base Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No I've gotten a couple of inquiries about my "GIF Name" data base, so I thought it might be useful to post a bit of info about it here since it was part and parcel of my review of Pork-Ware 1. To keep on topic, I created this data base in order to compare GIF file names across so-called "adult" CD-ROMs. Historically, there has been little originality (i.e. truly new images) across such products. Instead, producers have been content to "re-hash" many of the same files that were already released on other CD-ROMs, and that have been posted on some of the larger adult-oriented BBS-s, many for quite some time. This syndrome has spawned the potential for unwary buyers of "new" adult CDs getting ripped off by, in effect, re-purchasing material they already had. This has certainly happened to me more than once, much to my chagrin. Since some CD-ROM dealers who also run BBS-s began posting for download the file descriptions for the adult CDs they had for sale, it has become possible to at least look at file names (and sometimes descriptions) before buying for some CDs. While this practice is not very wide-spread, it is a start and certainly better than nothing. Do to the sheer number of GIF image files that can be put on a CD (3500+ is not uncommon), to compare file names across CDs with any efficiency requires a computerized data base. Over time, I have generated, loaded, and sometimes deleted the files listings from a goodly number of adult CDs - like about 30 in the aggregate. Today, the number of UNIQUE file names in my data base numbers close to 50,000. The file names come from the following volumes: Seedy ROM 6-Pak Seventh Heaven (aka Seedy 7) Busty Babes (1st ed.) Ecstasy FAO-2 FAO-3 FAO Gold PCPIX-1 PCPIX-2 PCPIX-3 Visual Fantasies Pork-Ware 1 (recently added) Storm 3 I deliberately left out (or removed) the file names from many older adult CD releases (e.g. Private Pictures) because they contained mostly low resolution images. Today, in my view, it's unacceptable to include images of less than SVGA resolution. Since I wanted my data base to help me with decisions about new products, including a lot of low resolution file names wasn't of much utility. Also, some CDs (e.g. FAO-1, Nix Pix volumes, etc.) have only or mostly "customized" file names on them making file comparisons based on names from such CDs practically worthless. (Sadder still, even some obviously renamed files have themselves been re-hashed on to "new" CDs!) Still other CDs (e.g. Storm 1&2, XXX Extreme, etc.) were omitted because of high duplication with the selected volumes. That brings us to the file names themselves. First, it's certainly true that just because two GIF files have the same name doesn't HAVE to mean they're the same image. Secondly, it's also true that "different name" doesn't always mean "different image". Furthermore, if you read this echo often enough, you will sooner or later read a thread that discusses the "dash -" and the "underscore _" characters and their relevance to "data" CD-ROMs of all types. (By "data" I mean only to exclude purely audio CDs.) The "dash" character is not acceptable to the ISO 9660 standard which most data CDs adhere to. Accordingly, many GIF file names on CDs have all their "dash" characters converted to the acceptable "underscore _" character. This means, for example, a file originally named "DS-F-123" USUALLY gets renamed on the CD as "DS_F_123". I say "usually" because the file could also end up named "DSF123" or "DSF_123" or most any other permutation of its original name at the whim of the CD's producers. Also, one finds that many names even without any ISO 9660 forbidden characters still get corrupted or outright new names when put on a CD. Whom actually did the changing of course isn't discernible, nor is it terribly important. What is important is "why" and to realize that such practices, intentional or otherwise, only add gravity to the increasingly pertinent "caveat emptor". Now, to meld these two discussions into one, let me say that I finally decided to construct my GIF file name data base from listings produced from DOS "DIR" commands executed against the CDs themselves. Originally, I had used included text files on the CD such as "FILES.BBS" as source material for the file names. Big mistake - such files don't exist on some CDs and some that are on the CDs are "less than completely accurate." Also, I once post-processed the DIR listings to remove all "dash" and "underscore" characters in an attempt to homogenize out petty differences. This proved to be of far less value than could be justified by the effort. [As a side bar, it's interesting to note that the PCPIX volumes still manage to use the supposedly forbidden "dash" character in many of their file names. How the producers of those volumes did it would be an interesting story if anyone knows it - I don't.] Given all of the above, one might ask: "So what's the value of your GIF file name data base?" That's a legitimate question and one that I've given some thought to now that most of the effort of setting it up and maintaining it is behind me. Here's my answer...After MUCH electronic examination and comparison of other measurable file characteristics such as resolution, image size, checksum, and file size, for my purposes I've determined that file name comparison, with all its faults and "traps", is still far and away the best discriminator of duplication where the practice of or potential for re-hashing is an issue. Where do I go from here? Well, in spite of all the effort I've put into it, I really hope my data base becomes obsolete, and the sooner the better. This will only happen if and when the producers of adult CDs start using only truly new material and quit re-hashing files. I think market pressure will eventually force this to happen when we CUSTOMERS demand it by beginning to hold the producers responsible for their products. How can we do this? First, vigilance. As copyright laws in this domain are increasingly enforced and truly new material requires effort and expense to procure, unscrupulous, fast-buck producers will continue to attempt to foist old material on us under the guise of a new lusty label and packaging, and a lot of advertising hype. Those not privileged enough to know about and use this echo are at a particularly serious disadvantage and will be easy prey. [Many thanks to Bob & Tim, and all the sysops that carry this echo!] Bottom line: the fast-buck artists will be with us for a while. One form of vigilance can be in sharing data about real or so-called new releases. One vehicle for sharing data is the "reviews" that I and others have posted on this echo. Even though each such "review" may represent only one person's opinion, that's at least one more data point than we would have otherwise. Such vigilance is made easier by the cooperation of reputable producers and dealers like Lee Noga, Mike Shannon, and Jim Lambert who have offered gratis or "on approval" disks for "no-holds-barred" reviews. They are taking risks by doing this and we owe them thanks for it. Secondly, if you think you've been ripped off, don't just sit by and take the loss. Go back to your dealer and try to get some form of compensation like a refund or exchange. The dealer wants and needs your business. If he gets a lot of flak about a particular product, he'll drop it and the producer will eventually get the message - and the sooner the better. Thirdly, when you find a reputable dealer, and there's plenty of them on this echo like Boris Osadciw who have developed a well-known reputation for accepting returns from dissatisfied customers, let the echo know so others can give them the patronage and ripoff problems can be avoided in the first place. The CD-ROM business is booming and will continue to do so for a while, IMHO. In any "boom cycle", no matter what the product, there will always be those with agendas that don't include the customer in any role other than "sucker". The customer in the market for adult, sexually-oriented material seems particularly vulnerable because the products appeal to some our stronger instincts. CD-ROMs are no exception. Accordingly, we CUSTOMERS need to erect (no pun intended) every defense we can to stay ahead of the adult CD-ROM >> Message length exceeded, split by WILDMAIL! v3.00 << >> Continued in next message << ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 1607 To: ALL Date: 07/01/93 12:37p Subj: GIF Name Data Base Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No >> Message length exceeded, split by WILDMAIL! v3.00 << >> Continued from previous message << fast-buck specialists.

Compact format does NOT mean that it is abridged, just that the text is quite tiny and requires the magnifying glass which comes with the Compact OED to read easily. A minor inconvenience, but as it only costs about $250-300 American, it's worth it so long as the CD-ROM OED is so expensive (can't remember what the cd-rom version actually costs, but it's quite a bit and only a savings if you compare it to the 20 volume version of the OED).

I would have only needed one, but a certain person (Scott Peterson) reneged on a deal after I took the time (on my dime) to negotiate a price and sent him a check for a Sony drive he had. Then I get my check back, saying the drive is "not currently available". This is not mentioned for 'sour grapes' purposes, but as a "heads up" for other people who may consider having dealings with him. Anyway, my standard offer is repeated as follows: I will pay around $100 for each Sony CDROM internal drive you have. I have purchased my last two for $100 apiece, so I don't want to go too far above that. Please echo here if you have one that you will sell for around $100 (and will follow through on), and post your phone number. I will call you on my dime to discuss.

Retail: $39 Telephone: 405-672-1708 Review: There are a lot of Shareware CD-Roms available. Some advertise a gigabyte of programs, others advertise 10,000 or some equally amazing number of programs. One of UP ALL NIGHT's strong selling point is its ability to utilize every one of the files contained on the disk. It has an excellent search engine that makes hunting for a file a simple task, plus it has an added twist, the menu talks to you. If you have ever found a Shareware CD Rom to be intimidating or difficult to use, you should check out UP ALL NIGHT. Up All Night is a CD-Rom created for the end-user. It has a VERY easy to use search engine, that with a Soundblaster or compatible card actually talks to you, telling you the commands you just selected. There is even a brief explanation of Shareware, urging you to register any program you find on the disk, that you can listen on your Sound Card. Normally I don't like the interfaces that are put on shareware CD-Roms. On most CD's I can navigate much better in DOS than I can using an often clunky interface. This is not the case with UP ALL NIGHT. The interface makes locating files easier than locating a file on your local BBS. You can search by file names, or by words in the file descriptions. The exceptional part of this is the speed in which files are located. Searches take literally seconds versus minutes on other Shareware Roms. Another very well thought out feature of the UP ALL NIGHT DISK can be found when you print a file list. When I get a new Shareware CD ROM, I like to print out the list of various directories, so I can share the lists with friends who might be interested in some of the files. Normally, I have to carefully collate and staple each file directory with its descriptions, as well as labeling each stack so I can find the correct files to copy. This isn't the case with UP ALL NIGHT. I can print all the directories I am interested in, because it puts all of the path information with the file name and description to make it easy to locate later. The directory also has a Date toggle, where you can either list the files date in your listing, or to leave it out to conserve space. For the sysop, or the die-hard- I don't like interfaces, there are FILES.BBS listing in each of the disks subdirectories. When you configure the UP ALL NIGHT CD Rom, you can tell it your favorite GIF viewer with path so you can view GIFs without exiting the search engine. It's awful handy to have full file descriptions as well as the resolution of each GIF before you view it. OK, so far all I have discussed is the interface, the search engine for the CD Rom, which in my opinion is excellent, and was created by someone who has seen the problems with other Shareware disks. It is a vast improvement of other shareware disks which are just thrown together groups of shareware files with little or no organization. The disk was pressed in 1993 and there are a lot of 1993 files on the rom. I think the total file count was something like 5200 files. There are games, GIF files that I've not seen before, as well as a wide selection of VOC files, which can be played right from the interface. The author wisely saved the VOC files as VOC file, not in a compressed format such that you would have to decompress before using. There really is something for everyone on the disk... clip art, Magazines/ Newsletters, device drivers, demos of commercial programs, GIFs, Games, Databases, Utilities, Sound Card files,the list goes on and on. There are even copies of the Fidonet CD Rom Echo area from 1990. UP ALL NIGHT is an excellent disk. If you are like me, you will be up all night playing with it when you get a copy. --- GEcho 1.00 * Origin: ModemLink BBS =: Yukon, OK := HST/V32 (1:147/24) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB HALL Number: 1703 To: JIM OXFORD Date: 07/08/93 8:07a Subj: CD ROM DISCS FOR SALE Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No JO> And that ain't easy with one foot nailed to the floor!

Demand has been so overwhelming that a 2nd cutting has already been necessary. This is the BEST, NEWEST, and HOTTEST Shareware CD on the market. The new disk will sell itself. The question is: with the buttload of "me too" dealers in the nets hawking the product, why should you buy from TCM? Let me provide some reasons.... 1) AVAILABILITY: We have a *large* quantity of the disks in stock, ready to ship. Orders are turned around with 24 hours. 2) STABILITY: TCM has been around for over 3 years now. We have been associated with Night Owl since NOPV3! TCM is not only a dealer for Night Owl, but is involved in the preparation and production of the disks. 80% of the preparation, file gathering, sorting and classifying for v9 was done right here at TCM. 3) SUPPORT: Because of #2 above, we KNOW the Night Owl disks. We know the files, we know how to install the disk on a BBS and in stand-alone mode. At TCM, Night Owl is not just another CD we sell: it is our *primary* product. We are here to help if you have a question or problem. It is for these reasons that Night Owl Publisher, Inc. designated TCM BBS the Official Night Owl Support BBS. No other dealer can make that claim. We have assisted numerous people who bought the disk from other dealers only to get a "duh...." response when they called them back with a question or problem. 4) VALUE: We offer the disk at a competitive price. Previous TCM customers recieve a substantial discount on all future Night Owl purchases (as well as other CDs and Computer Hardware, plus several *new* Night Owl products under development!). 5) PRICE GUARANTEE: We will meet or beat ANY legitimate advertised price for the disk. Give us the best, verifiable price you have gotten and we will match it. Period. You may order the disk from us in several ways: - Give us a call. If we aren't there leave a message and we'll get back to you. - Send check/money order to the address listed below. ($49 plus $3 s/h) - Call the BBS and use our ORDER door to place a VISA/MC order while online. - Call the BBS and download NIGHTV9.ZIP. An order form is included in the packet. - For COD, send us a fax or call the BBS and leave a message to the sysop. Please provide name/address/phone information.

I noticed there is an option on the menu "Historical Overview" with several hundred pages of historical information about actual battles. The cover on the cd pack mentions also that it includes "four tour of duty extensions: HE 162 Volksjager, P38 Lightning, Dornier 335 Pfeil and P80 Shooting Star". I doubt the actual game is different in any significant way. During installation it loads a fairly heavy dose of software to hard drive for optimal performance during execution (amount loaded to disk is selectable, recommended dose is 2.5 meg). Just looking around it looks like the cd-rom is full, so maybe it is more complete. steve. --- GEcho 1.01+ * Origin: The Transporter Room: 8 lines 10gig 14 CD's 704/567-9513 (1:379/1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: MIKE SHANNON Number: 1723 To: BUBBA THERRIEN Date: 07/08/93 11:47p Subj: $$$ Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No BT>MIKE! glad to see you write to me istead of everyone else.

The disc was scaled back to 500MB which will solve some of the problems it encountered on older CD players--It underwent major revisions, and most all the original scans were replaced by the "True" authors etc.. The real excitement lies with the new interface--It was written by a commercial company, and customized for us thus setting back their commercial release 7 days--The entire CD is viewed in pages (16 scans a page), and you click on any of these "Thumbnails" and the GIF enlarges--Click on your "FAVORITE" area of the GIF, and enlarge that piece to unbelievable levels. Instantly pop up the areas of interest (categories on CD), and go off in another area of interest--Has complete menu bar on the bottom, quickly fast forward thru the libraries, click and ZOOM--THis is the first image managing package on the market, the "New Generation" GIF/PCX for true image lovers-- Our interface was hard coded for 16 images, but the commercial package will allow you to display from 1 to 1,024 images on the screen. It allows you to click and drag your images around the grid and put them in the order you like, and so much more--Finds the image dupes on your drives, and puts them side by side etc...... to many features to talk about here. Takes the labor out of trying to manage all those images on a CD--Now you can jump around with a click of a mouse--and get away from having to see 1 image at a time-Executes faster then any image viewer on the market--But this is not just an image viewer, it's an image manager--The first of its kind on the market-- How will you know which Busty Babes disc it is on ? Look for Vol 1 Release 3.0 on the front cover-- SHOWOFF!

Are you going to supply -> dealers and then compete against them? You will not find very many -> dealers that will buy from you under those terms in fact you will -> drive them to the competition (sic). Hi Terry! First of all, I should note that Comdex is primarily a dealers/ distributors/wholesalers event, not a retail one. To answer your question: The same way anyone else does. Many computer equipment companies and CD-ROM suppliers that I'm aware of are perfectly willing to sell a single piece at a "retail" price, and multiple pieces at wholesale (I could name 3 who advertise retail CD-ROMs through this echo). I am not interested in competing with the dealers I supply. I am simply here to supply dealers who wish to have a quality Canadian supplier who can give them excellent value where CD-ROMs are concerned, and the end-users who do not have access to a dealer I supply. I'm afraid I can't agree with your conclusion, especially since I can't agree with the assumptions you've stated. I can be reached via netmail at 1:140/121, or by voice at 306-789-4654. I'm not sure that the inner workings of economics are "on-topic" for the CD-ROM echo, so we may want to continue this thread in another manner.

Mike, I've been sitting back watching (ya gotta love it), and while I haven't ever ordered from you yet, it's certainly likely that I _will_ in the future. You have remained professional and business-like all through all of this, and while I gotta admit, I've seen some of your advertised products for less, you seem willing to go the extra mile for your customers. What surprises me, is that there has been at least one message complaining about you giving the 10% discounts to some of your customers/supporters. Sure, the recipients of the discount lose some objectivity. SO WHAT! They _should_ lose their objectivity when they've been treated right. They'll lose objectivity when you provide good service too. Maybe you shouldn't do that either. If someone dines at a restaurant and compliments the owner about the meal, and the owner gives him/her a coupon for a free meal, the owner will benefit from some real cheap advertising. The customer will lose _all_ objectivity, but will also have gotten a free meal! Sounds like the American way to me! :-) BTW, for those that will accuse me of writing this as a "cheap shot" for a discount, that's not the case. However, you _can_ send me a catalog to: P.O.

He claims to have had extenuating circumstances, but failed to notify me of that fact. When I posted the message to me, his response was to FED-EX overnight my disc back. That in itself appeared rather suspicious to me. If he were GENUINELY concerned that he was unable to uphold his end of the deal, my CD should have been in the FED-EX package. Instead, he got his jollies, and tried to shift blame to me for the deal not being completed. If you only moderate in favor of your friends, you should let us all know before hand.

I shipped a disc to Terry, on the condition he would cross ship a disc in return, by priority mail. He failed to do so. After receiving a message from me, inquiring as to why he failed to complete the trade, he posted a tirade about how his life was all tied up, and basically what a low-life I was for asking. He then in turn, shipped my disc back by overnight FED-EX on his bosses corporate acccount. In his next post, he stated that the disc was not what he expected. What appears to have happened, is Terry got my disc, did not like it, and waited for me to complain so he could attempt to shift blame for the failing trade to me, and try to get a better disc in trade for his.

Actually it is called making profit. And Mike Shannon has no reason to be ashamed of it.

My company may then turn around and have a good year and give us all better raises. I may use a portion of my increased income to purchase more CD's next year. Extortion implies that you have "no choice" but to buy from someone. So we can see that extortion does not apply here. Price fixing implies that Mike is in agreement with other vendors to artificially keep the price high. That does not appear to be the case here either since GroupWare sold it to you for less. BT> I just bought NIGHTOWL 9 for $25. from groupware... Of course, the market place sets the prices. Mike will either have to meet or beat the competitions prices or his sales will suffer. But he already knows this, no doubt. But you get what you pay for as well. The lowest price does not always equate to the best "value" as simple minds might think.

Back when you were warring with Free Spirit Software in this echo, your battlecry was that you had the lowest prices and you could not be beat. You then undercut them by a nickel.

I take a swab dipped in cleaning fluid to mine, be real careful as not to put very much pressure on the "eye".. You will probably need to clean the cd also. I don't know the absolute best way of doing it, but I use windex with a soft lint free cloth.

A student here at Springbrook Middle School in Adrian, MI dropped one while they were transporting it to a different classroom and it worked like a charm... even though it was dropped from 4-5 feet above the ground!!! As for reliablity... it's a sony inside that case :) I run 3 Apple drives on this BBS and I like them more than the NECin the chain... but, the NEC is a good drive too (not putting them down... but, the Apple drive hasn't gave me ANY problems...the NEC sometimes doesn't read the disc -- but this has only happened twice...) So, all-in-all, Apple CD-Rom drives are excellent!!! And, just a suggestion, get the Apple 300 -- it is faster and it is the multi-session version. The 150's are good also... but the 300 is a FAR better drive just because of the multi-session capability and it is approx. double the speed. Gee, I hope you aren't more confused :) Later Ted ...

Ron, If it's the integrated CdRom that comes in the LCIII, it's a good deal. I recently bought a Centris 610 and spang for the internal cdrom model, even though I had a Nec84. Be sure to get the 300Kps models. Stay away from the older Apple drives and the new cute, black one. >------------------------------------ Actually, the LCIII cannot take an _internal_ cd rom. The case has room for a SuperDrive (3.5" floppy) and a 3.5" Half height hard disk. The Apple one you want is the AppleCD 300. It is state of the art (double-speed and Multisession photoCD compatible) and costs $599 form the Apple catalog w/ 9 CDs. Avoid the AppleCD 150i and Apple's consumer 'PowerCD' (the cute black one - its slow) Go to the dealer and twist their arm a little and you should get the AppleCD 300 for less than the $599 list.

In addition, there are thousands of pictures, hundreds of sounds, and over 50 digitized video clips including NASA missions, major sports events and famous people in history with motion video. You can hear famous speeches, musical compositions, animal sounds and bird calls with high-quality audio. (Speaking of comparing a cd to hard copies of encyclopedias, the sound/music is not possible with them.) Since the quality and speed of indexing is so much more advanced with a cd version of an encyclopedia, it makes research much easier and more fun to use the cd. Generating reports from paper requires a great deal more time and effort than pressing print-screen!

If so where can I get either a RN> multiple scsi ribbon that has at least 5 pin connectors on it, RN> or where can I get the external type pin connector Most cd rom drives use a propitiatory card. SCSI cd drives are usually more expensive... but I do have the Toshiba 3101 (Made by Toshiba America not Japan. The Japanese ones only have 34 k buffer and aren't as good is other ways.) for $249. These are new (350 ms access time) with 90 days warranty. RN> 2.) Which CD-ROM drive is the best in the terms of price/speed RN> for BBS use. For a bbs you want as many drives as possible since sitting up all night and changing out disc for your users is not practical. I have use Hitachi internal (model 3500) drives for $130 each. The controller cards are new and cost $60. You can daisy chain 4 of these drives on a single controller card, making the average cost $145 per unit. I also have 4 bay external cases and power supplies with external cable. I am offering this setup for $600 for the last 4 setups I have in stock. RN> 5.) Also how are the directory's on CD-ROMS setup. How do I RN> intergrate them with files.bbs type files for my BBS software. What BBS software are you running? I have written utilities to automatically and instantly set up my cd "Cream of the Crop" shareware cd with Maximus, Spitfire, Ra, Qbbs and PCBoard. In order to set up a cd so that users can access the files from a bbs the Sysop usually must do the following steps MANUALLY: 1. Type in the file paths to the Files.bbs (usually 50 + areas on most cd's... Aprox. 1 hr.) 2. Type in the description for the files in each area. ( Aprox 30 min.) 3. Type in the security level that callers must have to access the cd AND set various other flags. ( Aprox 30 min ) 4. Copy the files.bbs to the hard drive AND increment the file names... i.e. Files.1 Files.2 Files.3 etc... ( Aprox 1 hr. AND easy to get confused and make mistakes.) 5. With many bbs's you next have to change to the directory on your hard drive where you placed the Files. and then edit EACH and EVERY listing and in some cases remove the time and date column. ( Aprox. 1 DAY ! ) 6. Finally you have to HOPE that all this was done without any mistakes because when I log on your bbs and see a file I want and it doesn't come I'll leave you a message saying "What's the problem with my security... remember I sent you $5?" Call 205-824-2552 and let me know what you want. --- SFScan/286 v1.02a * Origin: Center of the Cosmos 205-824-2611 (1:3625/441.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: DON KULHA Number: 1954 To: DUNCAN MARKLEY Date: 07/10/93 10:38a Subj: MAC CDs FOR $ALE Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No CM > AMUG BBS in a BOX VII - $40 CM > GIGA-ROM V.4 - $50 DM> Craig, do these have the file listings on them in some sort of format so DM> they can be used on a PC based system?

"No knowledge of file compression or ZIP files is necessary!" "BBS ready with standard file lists inall directories." Here's what I think (MY opinions of) this disk: ** NO GIFS or JPEG Format Images ** (Why some manufacturers still put space-hogging images on their shareware disks is beyone me, they should put actual shareware PROGRAMS on Shareware cds and maybe make a whole seprate GIFS cd if they Want) *********** BBS READY *********** This CD installed itself FOR me into my existing "Mike Robinson's SFrom or EZROM" door. Letting the computer operate by itself for a minute while installing is much better than spending 30min to 2 hours installing a new disk, BELIEVE me, I've spent that much time installing disks before. BTW if you have a bbs but dont use SFrom or EZrom yet, it'll install the CD-Rom door also! As you can see, this is the easiest to use/setup and best Shareware cd out there.

He tried to steal from me, and I prevented it, and hopefully protected others from his misdeeds. I have traded with many people in the past, and he is the first to try and give me the shaft.

Sorry to jump in - but the Mitsumi is 300 ms access time, but being MPC compliant (as most drives are) yields a 150 kb transfer rate. Perhaps that's where the 150 ms came from. The older Mitsumi (which I own) was 500-600ms access time, but still yields the MPC spec'd 150 Kb/S transfer rate. They sell for $189.00 new.

Hope you are getting along well. As for your inquiry, there are a lot of CD-ROMs with text material on them--disc preference depends on the subject material you're after. Some discs that I use are "Computer Select," a CD-ROM disc of one full year of the largest number of computer magazines available on disc (i.e., PC World, PC Mag, etc.) and "World Library," a CD-ROM disc of about a thousand publications including all Shakespear's writings, all Sherlock Holmes stories, and several other written works. Several other companies have started producing their own discs of literary works like Nimbus and the Bureau of Electronic Publishing. The Washington Times newspaper is available on CD-ROM for a reasonable price (about $150) but other major newspapers are still only available on CD-ROM from some of the large magazine companies for a few thousand dollars. Newsweek on CD-ROM, with video and sound clips will be released shortly and several other new releases will be geared towards literary type materials with a multimedia twist. The discs mentioned above should be available from the larger CD-ROM delaers in this echo.

Has FILES.BBS for online use, with around 1700 .GIFs, Robbie, you better make sure which "Digital Dreams" you are getting info on. It appears that Mike is giving you information on the so-called "Digital Dreams McHenry Collection"... this is not the product from Ero Tek. The statistics on the disc from Ero Tek are as follows: ]]] TITLE: Digital Dreams Volume 1 ]]] SIZE: 632 Megs ]]] FILES: 2334 ]]] PUBLISHER: Ero Tek Publishing ]]] CATEGORY: Adult\BBS Ready\End User Ready Digital Dreams is one of the best Adult oriented CD-ROM's to come down the pike in a long long time. This disc is comprised of Nothing but original scans, scans that have not appeared on any CD-ROM disc previously published, nor have these scans been on any BBS anywhere. The images are beautiful nude women, with no men, no action shots, and no strange pictures. Just "Playboy" style images. Points for SysOps: The disc is fully BBS ready, and comes complete with file listings for PCBoard, Spitfire, Wildcat, and QBBS. In addition, a database of the file listings is provided, in case you want to generate some other form of file listing. Each file sub-directory has 100 or less images or programs in it, making it one of the easier ones to browse through. There are "catalog" images available for downloading, that allow your callers to view, pick and choose the images that they wish to download BEFORE they download, saving them (and you!) time. There is a file section on the disc that has 99 GIF images viewing and editing utilities on it. No longer will you have to search in vain trying to find where to direct your callers to go to get some viewers. All images are originals, meaning that you will not find something on this disc that you have already in your files base. No BBS ads, No Backgrounds, No "mirrored Images". When your callers download from this, they are getting "more babe for the byte!" You won't be advertising for other BBS systems when you offer this disc. Points for Individual Users: This disc has a menu interface that has to be seen to be believed! The hard drive installation takes less than 10 seconds, and it only takes up 295 bytes (yes, bytes!) on the hard drive. The user interface allows you to look at 40 "thumbnail" images at a time, pick the ones that you wish to see and "click" on them with your mouse to pull up the full sized images. I've never seen a simpler or cleaner interface on any CD-ROM anywhere! If you do not have a mouse, then instructions on how to operate the interface without one is provided on the back. All images are original. You will not find these images on any other CD-ROM or BBS files base (unless they copied them from this disc!) The user interface program will self-configure to your VGA card, without any intervention from you. Negative Points: The User Interface program requires a SET TEMP statement to work. Without a SET TEMP statement in DOS, then the user interface program, upon running, will attempt to set up a TEMP directory on the CD-ROM disc. Needless to say, this doesn't work too well! If you already have Windows v3.x installed, then you probably already have a Set Temp installed. However, if you do not have Set Temp in your AUTOEXEC.BAT, then you can correct the problem simply by either putting the following statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT or simply typing it at the command line: SET TEMP=C:\ This will correct that problem. You need at least a 512k Video card for the best performance. However, a one megabyte video card will work the best. Overall Impression: This is one of the best adult discs that I've seen, period. The user interface makes it excellent for the end user, the BBS support makes it simply great for BBS usage, and the quality of the files themselves make it worthwhile for any application.

Software compatability, Drivers. Michael, as someone that runs three of the Pioneer DRM-600a's on their BBS, I can fill you in on a few details... (smile!) The Pioneer DRM-600a is perfectly suited for BBS file server use. The DRM-604x will work, as well, but it's significantly higher price is outrageous when you look at what you are getting for the additional money. For BBS file server work, the interface software is more critical than the drive speed anyday. In order to properly use a multichanger unit on a multiline BBS, you need software that is capable of: [1] Reading the files lists from Magnetic Storage, not Optical [2] When the user goes to download, the software should "Buffer" the download to magnetic. [3] Ideally, a "flag" should be set that informs other nodes that the "Drive is Busy, Please Wait". I know that SFRom for Spitfire and EZRom for any DOOR.SYS BBS will do all of those things. Other software packages will do that, as well. Once you have that in your software, the speed of the drive is illrelevant. If you wish, you can call me at 913-266-5851, and I can discuss the matter further with you.

BJ> The included copy of GIFReed is too crippled IMHO, to permit any BJ> real "try before buy" evaluation, not to mention the highly BJ> annoying beeps, messages, warnings, etc. that go along with the BJ> crippled functionality. More to the point, as implemented by DD's Bob, Although it can be annoying to be "beeped at" in any way, shape or form, I don't think that three screens, only shown on bootup, are any cause for alarm. Once you pass through the initial three screens, there is no more nagware, period. BJ> crippled functionality. More to the point, as implemented by DD's BJ> authors, about half of each catalog image is occupied by a large, BJ> rather garish title that adds NO VALUE to the catalog image. The That is a function of GifREED, not the authors choice. I've worked with GifREED, and personally prefer it over anything else I've tried. When you make a catalog file, you get to specify only three things... the resolution of the resultant file, the number of image rows that can be placed in there, and if there is a title screen or not. You know as well as I do that, if there were no instructions on the thumbnail portion, that a lot of people wouldn't realize to "click on the small image." Not everyone uses GDS or GifREED... So some instruction were, IMHO, in order. Because of the limitations of the catalog process, there can be only one size of header file, nomatter what size you try to make it. BJ> screen is about 10.8" wide (horizontally, not diagonally). At BJ> 1024x768 resolution, that makes about 95 pixels per usable inch. BJ> Half of a 1024x768 screen spread wall-to-wall between 36 images BJ> gives about 11,000 pixels, about 105 pixels square, per image. BJ> Compare that to the 95 pixels per inch from above, add in some BJ> room for titles, space between images, and gentle reader you'll BJ> see that the DD catalogs images must be and are truly TINY. Look BTW, according to GifREED, those catalog images are in 640x480. They could have been made for 1024x768 or 800x600, but they would have been prohibitively large. I know, I've made them for my BBS before, and when you turn them on that large, they can take up 500k or more EACH. Ouch! BJ> have to stare at the catalog images for very long. Still, why the BJ> authors chose to surrender half the screen's real estate to a BJ> useless title is beyond me. Because without that "useless screen," a lot of people would have been in the dark about what to do. I have to do tech support on CD-ROM's, and believe me, there are a lot of people without a clue out there. Anything that will make life easier on them is a plus. BJ> Again, IMHO, GDS offers far more capability, flexibility, and BJ> usability. Sysops and end users alike will find a lot to like in GDS also costs $5.00 PER DISC PRODUCED, according to one Disc publisher that I work with. Can we say ouch? I don't think that you would want to give up that large of a slice of your work to a shareware author, if you were producing a title. Bob, it's obvious that you love GDS, and that's fine.. but counting against a disc because it's not using it is hardly fair. I don't see any other Adult Disc using it (if there is one, I've not seen it yet.) And the Porkware I disc that you reviewed next certainly doesn't even have the slickness of the GifREED interface. It only has an older version of VPIC available, and that doesn't measure up to GifREED for ease of use and functionality. More on the next one...

Increasing the resolution would help much for images less than 1" square and, as you point out, use of a lot of space for little/no vlaue add. Point-and-click is cool, sure, but without giving the creator of the catalogs any more flexibility that GIFReed offers (fixed title sizes, fixed "thumbnail" sizes), it's usability for creator and end user alike is diminished IMHO.

BTW: I agree with your implied definition of "full screen". That is, "all image" and not wide colored borders, big BBS logos, etc. I don't understand your refernce to 12 cents/minute for downloading costs, but that's not the point. I buy image CDs so I won't have to d/l them from a BBS. As to graininess of the images, if your staisfied with the quality of the images, then you're a happy owner. As I said in my review: "...what follows is one person's opinion." Others on the echo have agreed with my assessment of graininess. I admitted that I didn't know where it came from; I speculated about a lot of causes. If you say apparent sharpness is likely due to "pixel editing", that's OK by me. In that case I'd say DD's producers should have done some (or a lot) of that, too. Unsharp images wasn't the only thing I didn't like about Volcano, but again, if others are happy with it, that's fine by me. Yes, you're right. After the "numerical" part of my review, I did progress into more subjective areas. I said so in my earlier post when I disclosed the procedure that I was going to use and said it again in the review itself, as I recall. As to DD being all original material, I can't attest beyond what I said in my review. At least one person on this echo, Terry Woodward I think, voiced the opinion that it wasn't all original. You'll have to take the matter up with him if you need/want further discussion. As far as "easier to use interfaces", I'm in partial agreement with you. I think the idea of point-and-click from a catalog is really neat. It eliminates worrying about directories, trying to remember file names, etc. As you know, I don't particularly like GIFReed's version of it. As to alternatives to it and GDS, I understand that Rel 3 of BB will have a similar interface via yet a third product (forgot the name just now). Lee Noga has promised me a copy for eval. and you can believe that it'll get the same working over that GIFReed got. Stay tuned... I agree that we'va all had enough of the "knock-off" (no pun intended) "me-too" adult CDs. I applaud DD's producers for recognizing that and trying (Terry Woodward's remarks notwithstanding). IMHO, they didn't make it. As to being legal, I agree that's a sysop's concern. Not being a sysop (as I stated), I didn't consider that aspect in my review. I would point out that many adult CDs have as many if not more images than DD that are unquestionably "legal" and it would seem (again, to a non-sysop type) that a discrete editing of the infamous FILES.BBS file could make any "problem" files unreachable - so I don't think this is a selling point for DD. I'm lost as to your reference to "41% duplication rate" and whether or not I find that acceptable. First, no I wouldn't and hence the comment I made in another post about being very wary about so-called "new" offerings. Secondly, if you're referring to Pork-Ware I, I think I said in my review of it that it probably didn't offer the owners of more than one other adult CD much in the way of newness. Dave if your users are happy with DD, I'm glad for you and them both. I didn't like the disk and said so....exactly once (well, now twice). I haven't tried to dissuade others from offering it, touting it, or buying it, nor will I. As other CDs are offered for my review, they will get the same review treatment, good or bad. Readers of those reviews, like you, are welcome to their own opinions. As both you and I know, this "discussion" isn't exactly on topic so this is from my end. --- FreeMail 1.07b * Origin: The Bit Bucket * Houston, Tx * 713/496-9670 * (1:106/9670) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: MICHAEL BENGE Number: 2186 To: MIKE SHANNON Date: 07/19/93 1:15a Subj: Terry Woodward Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No * Forwarded from "CDROM_SALE" * Originally by Michael Benge * Originally to Mike Shannon * Originally dated 18 Jul 1993, 23:03 MB> By the way, dis I tell you that Terry Woodward ripped me off?

Because of this, I haven't had a chance to sit down and update my 2-column "monster" CD price list with all the new titles we keep getting. Come to think of it, I haven't had a chance to sit down, period, so here's my proposal: 1. Get your BEST price on any CD-ROM title (or titles) advertised in this echo by our competitors. 2. When you're ready to order, give us a call . . . . If we stock the titles, we'll beat our competitors' advertised prices by 5%. (No closeout items please) 3. It's that simple. With over 290 titles IN STOCK, we will probably have what you want, but if not, I'll make my best effort to get it for you. Unlike some dealers, we STOCK what we sell, and usually have 95% of our advertised titles in stock on any given day. Night Owl 9: In stock. So Much Shareware 3: In stock. Pier 2: In stock. Global Explorer: In stock. (Even weird ones, like: The Sporting News, Eagle Eye Shareware, World Vision, Otherware: ALL in stock) So don't be afraid to give us a try if you have never ordered from us before! Starvector would love to add your name to our growing list of satisfied customers! Well, there it is in a nutshell - Shop around, get your best price, and call us for a 5% savings! Now please, no phony phone quotes, confederates, or any of that stuff. I've already been through that nonsense, so let's keep this on the straight and level, and Starvector will give you some CD-ROM deals like you've never seen before! Who knows, if I like this approach, I might just stick with it permanently. It would save you guys from having to read the "monster" every week! 8) Mike Shannon Starvector Software p.s.

My next action will be to see relief under TW> Policy Four, which guarantees Fido members protection from TW> harassment. I will file a formal compliant with my RC. A policy complaint filed by you on this matter will have little weight. You have never asked me to stop posting to you, ad only recently did the moderator issue a directive for me to stop posting on the topic of the trade you refused to complete. Unless you make it clear to someone that you feel harassed, there is no way they can read your mind and do what you wish. It truly amazes me that you have the gall to threaten this, when you should simply send me the CD you offered. You could have easily sent it instead of mine in the FED-EX envelope, but since, as you personally said, you did not like the disc I sent you, things worked out well for you, giving you, as you profess to believe, reason to mail my disc back instead. The statement that you stole from me still stands. Granted I have my disc, but you convinced me you would complete our trade, I paid for shipping to have my disc delivered to you, and waited for you to send yours in return. Instead you shipped mine back. In as much, you caused me to lose a total of $2.90. Since you did so after the deal had been made, your action, once again in MY opinion, as well as the opinion of GA law, were fraudulent. That is where my statements have originated. I am due a CD rom, I have yours here. The right thing for you to do is send me the PC II rom and $2.90, so that I may mail you your Physical Therapy disc back. If you refuse to do this, fine, I will continue to feel the way I do. Since the moderator has directed me to stop warning other people of MY problems, there is no more I can do about the matter. THIS will be the final post on this subject by either of us. You feel harassed? Fine, my postings cease with this message. Unless you take advantage of my final offer to allow you to make good on this trade, any additional postings by you, concerning me, would be considered harrassing also, as they would serve no useful purpose. YOU could correct a lot of ill will and do the right thing by completing our deal as you agreed. If your word is no good, little else matters. Have a good day Terry.

Me thinks that it's not ANY government's responsibility to force-feed morality, thru censorship, on its citizens.

The Zeus came with a startup-icon for removable media that one supposedly drops into the start-up drawer (I'm running AmigaDos 2.1), but this does not help me any. Is this just for things like Syquests and the like? Not CD's? My SCSI Toolbox that came with my Zeus card does 'see' the Toshiba as one of the SCSI devices attached to my controller. So I guess I need to get Xetec's driver to make things work? Anyone succesfully running this with a Zeus card? I also have an ICD AdSCSI controller card. Perhaps I can install it and run the CD from him if the Zeus fails. Anyone running Xetec's driver with an AdSCSI? I also tried installing the Toshiba in my 486 equipped with a Buslogic BT-445S SCSI controller, but alas, Buslogic's CDROM driver only support SCSI-II devices. As with my Amiga, the controller 'sees' the drive, but that's it. The tech guy at Buslogic told me COREL SCSI might be the ticket.

The Mitsumi is a low-cost drive, and can be found brand-new for as low as $175 if you shop around. The going rate appears to be about $190. I personally don't recommend the drive, as whenever there's a disc returned to me as defective, it works fine in our office. I call the customer to inquire about the type of drive they're using, and they ALWAYS say, "Mitsumi." Seems the Mitsumi has a problem reading many of the discs out there on the market. HOWEVER, industry sources have indicated that Mitsumi has found a problem with their controller card, and have corrected it.

Secondly, this review will follow the format, style, and content paradigms that were used in my reviews of "Digital Dreams" (Ero Tek) and "Pork Ware I" inasmuch as there will be three parts: Statistics, Operations, and Visual. I will use the same criteria as I outlined in my previous descriptions of those parts. Thirdly, having learned that FidoNet can tolerate reasonably long posts, I'll use only three messages for this review, one for each of the parts named above. Finally, remember, WHAT FOLLOWS IS ONE PERSON'S OPINION. While I try very hard to be as objective as possible in writing these reviews, (objectivity is part of what I do to satisfy Maslow), individual preferences, both mine and yours, will always introduce some level of subjectivity, particularly in the operations and visual parts. All set? Here we go..... Statistics ========== This section focuses on numerical data relative to the physical contents of the CD. Let me begin by stating that measuring the exact number of files on a CD isn't as simple as it may sound, nor all that important. Most CDs these days have thousands of files on them, particularly image CDs and shareware CDs. While one might assume that a simple DIR would suffice, it won't. First, DIR will count the . and .. subdirectory "files" (note: these have been taken into account in the figures below). Secondly, even when using DIR with a "qualifier" like *.GIF, a directory may show files that aren't actually there, or are corrupted in some way that makes them useless and therefore might as well not be there. Finally, what my CD-ROM drive can read, yours may not, and vice-versa. Accordingly, when I give various counts and sizes and you subsequently find that your stats don't EXACTLY agree with mine, don't take it too hard. BB3 disclosed a count of 2663 GIF files (not counting the catalog files - more on those later) totaling 499 Mb. That yields an average byte size of 187 Kb per GIF which is consistent with the observation that most of the GIFs are either 800x600 or 640x480 in resolution and most occupy relatively large portions of the screen when displayed normally. All told, the CD disclosed 3278 files occupying 528 Mb. The difference of 615 files is accounted for by the 200 catalog GIF files and by the utilities and other programs included on the CD. Comparing BB3 GIF files names against my those in my data base taken from BB1 (Rel. 1 not Rel. 2), I found 1731 duplicate names. Had I been able to run the comparison against BB2, doubtless a larger number would have been forthcoming. Run against the whole data base, an additional 398 duplicate names were found. These numbers indicate that BB3 is indeed just as her producer advertised: essentially a re-make of BB2 to correct past "sins", at least as far as the GIF files are concerned. Within BB3 itself, I found 10 GIF files that were duplicated. That is, there are 10 pairs of files where each member of a pair contains exactly the same image. One of the pairs even shares the same name: "L_HONEY5.GIF" which appears in two different directories. The other nine pairs have different names and appear in the same or different directories as their "image mates". Operations to follow... --- * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 2415 To: ALL Date: 07/25/93 7:17p Subj: Review of Busty Babes #3 Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Visual ====== This part of the review focuses on the visual merits of the CD's imagery as judged by this reviewer. Accordingly, it is more subjective than either of the two preceding parts. and should be taken as such. Like its forebearers, BB3 is a full-blown X-rated CD. Some of its images are as raw as raw legally gets. It's worth noting that a large number of the scans are R-rated in that, outside of exhibitionism, no sexual activity is depicted at all. This is primarily true of the "BUSTYn" directories (0 <= n <= 6). Comparing BB3 GIF files names against my those in my data base taken from BB1 (Rel. 1 not Rel. 2), I found 1731 duplicate names. Had I been able to run the comparison against BB2, doubtless a larger number would have been forthcoming. Run against the whole data base, an additional 398 duplicate names were found. These numbers indicate that BB3 is indeed just as her producer advertised: essentially a re-make of BB2 to correct past "sins", at least as far as credits for the GIF files are concerned. Within BB3 itself, I found 10 GIF files that were duplicated. That is, there are 10 pairs of files where each member of a pair contains exactly the same image. One of the pairs even shares the same name: "L_HONEY5.GIF" which appears in two different directories. The other nine pairs have different names and appear in the same or different directories as their "image mates". There may be other pairs, but I didn't detect them with my computer-aided processes. Like it predecessors, BB3's images are by and large quite good. Certainly they are on a par with contemporary releases. Most images are either 640x480 or 800x600 in resolution. The scans are generally sharp and professional looking in appearance. If you already have one or two of the more popular adult image CDs, (e.g. Ecstasy, FAO, Seedy ROM, etc.) you'll feel right at home with the quality of BB3's pictures. As previously mentioned, BB3's directory structure is an improvement over BB1 and BB2, IMHO. In addition, there are some scans that aren't in either of the predecessor volumes - not enough to warrant purchase solely based on that fact, but nice lagniappe if you're going to buy the disk anyway. Finally, there's a truly new directory in that all of its images (some 115 of them) are definitely not in either BB1 or BB2. That is the "MICHELLA" directory and it's contents are exclusively scans of a lady by that name. These scans are soft and generally dark. They're pleasant enough; mostly "R to hard R" and frequently with an unnamed lady friend in tender-looking poses. If I had to chose a single word, on the whole (no pun intended) I'd call them artistic. In sum, if you're looking for an adult CD with a variety of subject matter, BB3 would be a good choice. If you're a true collector, you'll probably want BB3 to complete the set; I'm sure FLD's not planning a Rel. 4.0 - there'd be no point to it. Release 1.0 is already a collector's item; Release 2.0 doesn't surrender anything meaningful to Release 3.0 in image content; Release 3.0's raison d'etre, outside of some mea culpa rapair work, is SO. There's just no more mileage in this collection. So, Lee, what'cha got up your sleeves for us next? Whatever it is, make sure SO hangs in there! --- * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: RAY HEROLD Number: 2416 To: ALL Date: 07/25/93 4:10p Subj: TCM Newsletter...

Granted that some out there may not approve of this type of material but that being beside the point this disk is of the highest quality workmanship I've seen lately.

Next you can put Mike.exe in your path or in the \text directory then type and enter "Mike Dir*" When the program finishes the listings will be saved to files with the same name BUT with an "!" as the first character. i.e. !Dir1 !Dir2 etc. If you are satisfied with the results of the new format of the "!" files you can delete all the dir* files then change the name of all the !dir* files to whatever you like. --- Maximus 2.01wb * Origin: Center of the Cosmos (1:3625/441) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: MICHELLEA SORENSEN Number: 2454 To: ALL Date: 07/23/93 6:14p Subj: ADULT CD-ROMS Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No G ******* ** ** ***** ****** ** ** e ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** t ******* ** ** ***** ** **** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ******* **** ***** ** ** Hey Canadians!

I have called several of the fax numbers listed by vendors in this echo and I have noticed the following: 1) Many vendors use faxmodems. It allows them to send/receive faxes and operate a BBS at the same time. 2) Some vendors use the faxmodems mentioned above, but configure them to send/receive faxes at certain hours and operate the BBS the rest of the time. 3) I use a Panasonic KXF-110 G3 fax machine There is only one problem with this. FAXMODEMS DON'T WORK. AT LEAST NOT WHEN RECEIVING A FAX. Actually, most work very well sending out a fax. But, that doesn't help me. On several occasions I have tried sending a fax to a vendor, only to get a series of unrecognizable handshaking tones. I then usually call voice, and am told "Try again, once I reconfigure the faxmodem" or "Try again, but press your SEND button before my faxmodem answers", or "I only receive faxes from 8am to 6pm", or "Oh, I don't accept faxes, I use the faxmodem to only send catalogs out", or "It's for my suppliers' use only". Come on, vendors. This is the 90's. I know margins are tight, but many fax machines are cheaper than the CD drives you sell, and a dedicated line is a tax writeoff. In the short-term, vendors should state if they use faxmodems and/or they run a BBS on the same line and/or do not receive faxes and/or only accept faxes during certain hours. It will make my life easier. Don --- Maximus 2.01wb * Origin: Twilight Zone BBS - Ft.

Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No =================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------ JP>Is there a major improvement in caching a CD-rom with 435 ms JP>access time and 150kb transfer rate??? Yes there is! JP>Is there a program that will Cache my CD-rom and my hard drive also?? Yes there is and it is called "The Norton Speedcache+ for dos and windows. Just as an example I had been using Coreldrw 3.o and upgraded to the 4.0 Version and liking Fonts I made the mistake of installing all 750 of Version 4.0 fonts. Needless to say Coreldrw was written to be run inside of windows. Prior to installing the Norton speedcache+ on my 486/33 the elapsed time it took to open windows from the time I typed win and hit the enter key till I got the windows program manager with all of my various icons displayed on the crt was 3:35 what seemed like a lifetime. well I installed nCache and the reduced the 3:35 to 1:05 SEC, quite a remakable improvement approx a 66% increase in accesing speed. then on this echo I read about "The Norton Speedcache+" and proceeded to buy same. It self installs and litterly cashes everyting on your system, CDROM, Hard Drive, Dos, Windows. when it was Installed instead of" "NCACHE" the same accesstime dropped to :53 seconds so I would have to say it indeed does cut the accesstime. I do not have a benchmark program to time the info retrevial of info from the CDROM so I can only assume that it has speeded it up also, By the way I am running two Stacked(2.0) drives and it (Norton Speedcache+) says they are not cached but that is where windows 3.1 is installed along with all other applications except \Dos \Stacker who reside on the unstacked portion of the C:(Bootable Disk drive) but to speed windows up that much I know It does..Hope this rambling helps .......Jack * SLMR 2.0 #1626 * I could have had a V8, But got a GOLDWING instead!! --- WM v3.01/91-0009 * Origin: Aspencade BBS (614) 837-3896 (1:226/1210.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ISMAIL ARSLANGIRAY Number: 2535 To: ALL Date: 07/28/93 7:20a Subj: Liquadation Discs Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No CD-PowerBox $12 (General Shareware) CD-WinBox $12 (Windows Shareware) If you are interested, you can order from: GroupWare 4826 Tacoma Mall Blvd. Tacoma, WA 98409 TEL 1-206-472-1400 or 1-800-373-0628 FAX 1-206-473-1634 or 1-800-277-5179 --- DB 1.53/002199 * Origin: GroupWare CD-ROM Support & Sales BBS: 1-206-581-9088 (1:138/116) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: DAVID MCSPADDEN Number: 2536 To: KEVIN OYAMA Date: 07/25/93 12:55a Subj: CDWORLD Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Hi Kevin, Allways try to do my best, Have a good one and thanks for the kind words.

The Mitsumi is a low-cost drive, and can be found brand-new for as low as $175 if you shop around. The going rate appears to be about $190. I personally don't recommend the drive, as whenever there's a disc returned to me as defective, it works fine in our office. I call the customer to inquire about the type of drive they're using, and they ALWAYS say, "Mitsumi." Seems the Mitsumi has a problem reading many of the discs out there on the market. HOWEVER, industry sources have indicated that Mitsumi has found a problem with their controller card, and have corrected it.

Secondly, this review will follow the format, style, and content paradigms that were used in my reviews of "Digital Dreams" (Ero Tek) and "Pork Ware I" inasmuch as there will be three parts: Statistics, Operations, and Visual. I will use the same criteria as I outlined in my previous descriptions of those parts. Thirdly, having learned that FidoNet can tolerate reasonably long posts, I'll use only three messages for this review, one for each of the parts named above. Finally, remember, WHAT FOLLOWS IS ONE PERSON'S OPINION. While I try very hard to be as objective as possible in writing these reviews, (objectivity is part of what I do to satisfy Maslow), individual preferences, both mine and yours, will always introduce some level of subjectivity, particularly in the operations and visual parts. All set? Here we go..... Statistics ========== This section focuses on numerical data relative to the physical contents of the CD. Let me begin by stating that measuring the exact number of files on a CD isn't as simple as it may sound, nor all that important. Most CDs these days have thousands of files on them, particularly image CDs and shareware CDs. While one might assume that a simple DIR would suffice, it won't. First, DIR will count the . and .. subdirectory "files" (note: these have been taken into account in the figures below). Secondly, even when using DIR with a "qualifier" like *.GIF, a directory may show files that aren't actually there, or are corrupted in some way that makes them useless and therefore might as well not be there. Finally, what my CD-ROM drive can read, yours may not, and vice-versa. Accordingly, when I give various counts and sizes and you subsequently find that your stats don't EXACTLY agree with mine, don't take it too hard. BB3 disclosed a count of 2663 GIF files (not counting the catalog files - more on those later) totaling 499 Mb. That yields an average byte size of 187 Kb per GIF which is consistent with the observation that most of the GIFs are either 800x600 or 640x480 in resolution and most occupy relatively large portions of the screen when displayed normally. All told, the CD disclosed 3278 files occupying 528 Mb. The difference of 615 files is accounted for by the 200 catalog GIF files and by the utilities and other programs included on the CD. Comparing BB3 GIF files names against my those in my data base taken from BB1 (Rel. 1 not Rel. 2), I found 1731 duplicate names. Had I been able to run the comparison against BB2, doubtless a larger number would have been forthcoming. Run against the whole data base, an additional 398 duplicate names were found. These numbers indicate that BB3 is indeed just as her producer advertised: essentially a re-make of BB2 to correct past "sins", at least as far as the GIF files are concerned. Within BB3 itself, I found 10 GIF files that were duplicated. That is, there are 10 pairs of files where each member of a pair contains exactly the same image. One of the pairs even shares the same name: "L_HONEY5.GIF" which appears in two different directories. The other nine pairs have different names and appear in the same or different directories as their "image mates". Operations to follow... --- * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 2577 To: ALL Date: 07/25/93 7:17p Subj: Review of Busty Babes #3 Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Visual ====== This part of the review focuses on the visual merits of the CD's imagery as judged by this reviewer. Accordingly, it is more subjective than either of the two preceding parts. and should be taken as such. Like its forebearers, BB3 is a full-blown X-rated CD. Some of its images are as raw as raw legally gets. It's worth noting that a large number of the scans are R-rated in that, outside of exhibitionism, no sexual activity is depicted at all. This is primarily true of the "BUSTYn" directories (0 <= n <= 6). Comparing BB3 GIF files names against my those in my data base taken from BB1 (Rel. 1 not Rel. 2), I found 1731 duplicate names. Had I been able to run the comparison against BB2, doubtless a larger number would have been forthcoming. Run against the whole data base, an additional 398 duplicate names were found. These numbers indicate that BB3 is indeed just as her producer advertised: essentially a re-make of BB2 to correct past "sins", at least as far as credits for the GIF files are concerned. Within BB3 itself, I found 10 GIF files that were duplicated. That is, there are 10 pairs of files where each member of a pair contains exactly the same image. One of the pairs even shares the same name: "L_HONEY5.GIF" which appears in two different directories. The other nine pairs have different names and appear in the same or different directories as their "image mates". There may be other pairs, but I didn't detect them with my computer-aided processes. Like it predecessors, BB3's images are by and large quite good. Certainly they are on a par with contemporary releases. Most images are either 640x480 or 800x600 in resolution. The scans are generally sharp and professional looking in appearance. If you already have one or two of the more popular adult image CDs, (e.g. Ecstasy, FAO, Seedy ROM, etc.) you'll feel right at home with the quality of BB3's pictures. As previously mentioned, BB3's directory structure is an improvement over BB1 and BB2, IMHO. In addition, there are some scans that aren't in either of the predecessor volumes - not enough to warrant purchase solely based on that fact, but nice lagniappe if you're going to buy the disk anyway. Finally, there's a truly new directory in that all of its images (some 115 of them) are definitely not in either BB1 or BB2. That is the "MICHELLA" directory and it's contents are exclusively scans of a lady by that name. These scans are soft and generally dark. They're pleasant enough; mostly "R to hard R" and frequently with an unnamed lady friend in tender-looking poses. If I had to chose a single word, on the whole (no pun intended) I'd call them artistic. In sum, if you're looking for an adult CD with a variety of subject matter, BB3 would be a good choice. If you're a true collector, you'll probably want BB3 to complete the set; I'm sure FLD's not planning a Rel. 4.0 - there'd be no point to it. Release 1.0 is already a collector's item; Release 2.0 doesn't surrender anything meaningful to Release 3.0 in image content; Release 3.0's raison d'etre, outside of some mea culpa rapair work, is SO. There's just no more mileage in this collection. So, Lee, what'cha got up your sleeves for us next? Whatever it is, make sure SO hangs in there! --- * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: JOHN ROBINSON Number: 2578 To: JACKIE ROGERS Date: 07/25/93 11:26p Subj: Adult Titles Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Hello There Jackie!

Yes, you need the Xetec, or another such as AsimWare (my personal preference), file system to get the CDROM to work w/the Amiga. Either of these will also let you emulate a CDTV, enabling you to run CDTV disks (please note, neither gives you 100% compatibility to run all CDTV disks).

From my end, this is what I've perceived to have happened: 1) Michael & Terry agreed to "trade" CD's, each "cross-shipping" their respective CD to the other. 2) Michael sent off his CD, as agreed. Terry, on the other hand, was tied up, albeit with good reason, and did not send out the CD as promised. 3) Michael then stated on the echo, pretty politely at the time, that he was having problems in completing the deal with Terry. Whether he had jumped the gun at this time, or not, I don't know. If he hadn't tried to discuss it with Terry, either voice, or in a personal message in the echo, then he should have. Regardless, I remember that the initial message from him was actually pretty civil. 4) Terry responded to Michael's message fairly vehemently. I do remember that he was the first one to start calling names, and that he stated that he had been too busy to send out his CD, and that he was no longer interested in completing the deal, because he didn't like the CD that Michael had sent. 5) At this point, things disintegrated. Michael, showing his hot- headedness, which has already caused run-ins with others (myself included), continued to press the matter, provoking other users to get involved. 6) The moderator of the echo, obviously a friend of the "well-liked" and "much respected" Terry Woodward did something that I thought was a little strange by personally attacking Michael, and defending Terry, as did many others. 7) The matter has continued to develop to the point where it is now. Little pot shots at Michael from various users, provoking further responses from Michael to defend his point... All while the main point is forgotten... MAIN POINT Obviously Mr. Woodward has alot of friends on this echo, and undoubtedly there's a reason for that. I'm sure he's a very nice fellow, and, like I said, the explanations that he gave for being tied up were perfectly understandable. I've never dealt with him, but I would not hesitate at all to deal with him. Believe me, I know how hectic things can be sometimes... and I don't always get my stuff out as soon as I should. To me, his reputation is untarnished. Mr. Benge, on the other hand, has obviously already enlightened a number of users to his personality. As I said, I've personally dealt with Mike, and it is not something I will EVER do again. He still owes my wife an apology for a tantrum he threw, during a FAVOR I was doing for HIM. (I'm still waiting Mike, and I haven't forgot.) However, all that aside... from where I stand, it was Terry that did not complete his end of the deal, no matter the reasons. Mike upheld his end of the bargain, sending out his CD in good faith, and waited to receive Terry's. Terry, on the other hand, did not send out the CD as expected, and instead returned Mike's CD to him after reviewing it, and determining that he didn't like it. Not quite as agreed upon. So the questions remain... 1) Did Michael Benge have a right to complain about the way the deal was handled? Not to the degree that he has, although, like I said, he started it fairly civily, and it has devolved to where it is now, largely due to the input of other users. Believe me, I've been involved in many, many deals on the echoes, and I have now been ripped off 6 times. In each case I stated my point, very civily, and have been attacked by others, even though I was the victim. One time in particular I was up against another well known user, and was castrated when I brought up our problems, by other users, and the moderator. Of course, my "revenge" came in watching the same person rip off several other users, before he dropped out of sight. Still had my money, but so many people had to eat their words. 2) Does Michael have a right to expect the $2.90 that he spent on postage? Yes. He dealt in good faith. He had to spend the money to send out a CD for no reason. So he is deserving. 3) Is Michael Benge a "jerk", and should he make that call and apologize to my wife, and should he go ahead and forward the $2.90 to me for having to mail his stuff to him out of my pocket as well as the scans I did as a favor? You decide. But never, ever forget who the victim is.

I infer (perhaps incorrectly) that the LF>full-size Bureau publications have the same problem. Do you know if that LF>is the case? While I don't have the full-size pubs you asked about, I've seen the same type of engine used on the two disks that I do have from them: World Fact Book, and U. S. History. I agree that it is sometimes a bother to save to disk a long file, and then have to edit it separately to collect a small fragment, perhaps as a quotation that I might paste into another document. There are a couple ways of making life a bit easier, I've found. You can save the article, F8 seems to be a popular way with them, and then edit it afterwards with your favorite editor/word-cruncher routine. Or, you could save it as an article and use Vern Buerg's LIST.COM to find and collect the portion. You might also locate the file by using GREP on the list of files to locate directly the filename, bypassing the engine, and then editing a copy of that file; this involves expertise of working from the command line, which is often a terrible experience for some folks. I've not found a different method that was acceptable, and will be curious to learn if you discover one. the Jerry Murphy in Lakewood, Ohio * DeLuxe2 1.21 #8814 * Murphy is out there somewhere ... just waiting ... --- Squish/386 v1.10 BETA/3 * Origin: HelpNet For the Impaired - (216)-356-1872 (1:157/2) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: KAREL VITAMVAS Number: 2604 To: CHRISTIAN SMITH Date: 07/27/93 5:19p Subj: MAP CD Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No CS> I heard there is a CD that has every street in the US on it.

I'm running a Mitsumi CDRom on my BBS and I've run into a problem. I've got the 3 CD set of Shareware Bonanza and they have been doing fine. But I picked up the Shareware Studio Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 and my CD won't read them except on a hit or miss basis. Now I'm kind of scared to buy any more CDs until I know what's going on. Now for the questions: 1. If it is my CDRom, what is the difference between the CDs that my reader will read some but not others? 2. Do you have any suggestions for CDs that my reader will read, such as the Night Owl series, etc.? I would like to pick up a few more CDs to switch out on a regular basis. I'd like a good mix of up-to-date shareware, g-rated .gif files, utilities, etc. Would appreciate any insight you can spare. Ron ... Have you seen Quasimodo?

As such, there's nothing wrong with implementing a "rule" like this... So as far as FidoNet is concerned, everything is cool. The fundamental question is: Are FidoNet moderators legally responsible for the mail that is posted in the echos? That's a good question. If the moderator owned copyright to the echo, I would say "yes"... If not, I would say "no". In its current state, a moderator "might" be responsible. That brings us to another question: Do moderators own copyright? Who knows? The issue of ownership of an individual echo is not defined in FidoNet policy, nor has there been a precedent setting case. OK, who owns copyright to the echos? Tom Jennings owns copyright to the nodelist (good for him), but not the echos... George Peace? He's the king of the hill in the network, but he doesn't own the echos (a moderator has the authority to cut GP's feed)... Are the echos public domain? They can't be because there is no one of sufficient authority to declare them as such... So, who owns copyright: "dunno". The punch line is "yes" - someone is legally responsible for the mail that flows thru this echo, but that "someone" is unknown. -> adult CDs. Do you plan a similar change for this echo? Right now, no. I see no fundamental legal differences between what occurs here & what occurs in the back of PC Magazine... Obviously I won't allow specific, nontechnical, discussion of these discs in this echo - that goes without saying. I guess what I'm trying to say is, "if it's good enough for PC Mag, it's good enough for me"... tim moderator ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: JOHN ROBINSON Number: 2709 To: DOUG CARPENTER Date: 07/29/93 8:50a Subj: Re: Adult Titles Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Hello There Doug!

As many of you already know, "Busty Babes 1 vol 1" was a limited press and was on the market for a very short time before Lee had to pull it off the market due to legal problem on the cd. The actual number press, I'am told, was 3,000 copy's, of which I think we sold nearly 1,000 ourselves....grin... Recently, we were luck enough to purchase 50 copies of the orignal versions and began marketing the remain few we had. The going rate had been $80. per cd until our stock dropped to the last 5 cd's on hand. At which point, we decided to hold onto the remaining unit's . But the phone calls kept coming and user after user kept asking us to sell the remaining units. So, we decided we would market the last 3 units to the highest bidder. The first serious buyer purchased one unit for $150.00 the next buyer to call, knowing that we had only 2 units left offred us $250.00, which we accepted. We are now down to the last remain unit and have several customers offering us $300.00 for the original. Sound crazy ??? Yes it is, when you think of it !! The disk sold for $45. - $65 in 1992, but it's value has increased as time went on. Unlike any CD we've ever sold, "Busty Babes I" is the ONLY CD I know of that has going the other way in value. So, to those who are lucky enough to have BB v1.0 with the BamBam Logo on it, your sitting on a gold mine. It's value will increase even more after Lee goes to BBS Con and the full story is told. As to what we did with the last version we have on hand, well...due we hear $400. ??? Oh yes, there's version 1.0 dated 1992, then there's the remake version 1 vol 2 dated 1993 and then there's the current version "Busty Babes III". Yes, we do have all three copies on hand. BOB !!

I agree that specific discussion of the "merits" of any particular part of an adult CD (say some specific GIF) would be out of scope for the echo. I've tried to keep my "reviews" on a plane that would be in concert with the guidelines you've established. Let me know if I stray too far.

Finally, it just gave the message that my "HDD controller" was not responding. I had just put in a new EISA 32 bit card for my new 486 mamma board, and apparently either the sucker died, or the OS/2 sessions killed it (maybe it committed suicide - I have thought about it since working with a whole new system). Be that as it may, I still - luckily - had my old HDD controller in the case with my replaced 386. I swapped it and re-installed my OS/2 and reloaded most of my essential subdirectories. I also 'dropped' my DR DOS and decided to bite the bullet and jump in with only OS/2. I am now running my previous stuff in a DOS window, in OS/2 and it seems to work so far. I lost several messages, and all the replies I had in progress, due to the HDD controller flakiness, and my novice attempts to use an icon from BlueWave in the OS/2 desktop. Wiped out my Subdirectory with BlueWave, so got to reload that (and also reset all my pointers and directories, since it had been on just a C: drive, now my OS/2 system is on C: and my data and programs on D:.

This time it's Pork-Ware II. Us CUSTOMERS should thank Mike (and others) for providing a valuable service: the ability to get an inside look at a CD BEFORE plunking down "the necessary" and thereby perhaps avoiding a disappointment to us and a hassle for the vendor. As with past reviews, I'll evaluate the CD from three different aspects: statistics (numerical data relative to the physical contents of the CD), operations (aspects of the CD that affect convenience and usability), and visual (the esthetic merits of the CD's imagery). Each aspect of the review will be posted as a separate message on this echo. Statistics ========== Pork-Ware II (PW2) has 3308 GIF images on it, plus 100+ "animation" files. The CD has 24 image directories, "X01" through "X23" for GIFs and "X24" for the animations. While the image directory names don't give a clue to their contents, in fact the 23 GIF directories are divided along subject matter lines. Compared to PW1, PW2 adds directories for the animations, males, and group shots, but deletes the Targa directory found on PW1. There are also some minor directory name changes from PW1, but essentially the imagery organization between the two CDs is identical. There is a total 606,421,814 bytes across the 3308 GIF files making an average of 183,319 bytes per GIF. I could find NO duplicate file names on the CD, but I did discover several duplicate files through electronic audit and browsing. Based on those activities, my guess would be that there's about 1% GIF file duplication within the CD itself. However, when compared to my GIF name data base, of the 3308 GIFs on PW2, I found 3269 name matches - a "hit" factor of 99%!! Something's very wrong here. From their respective names, one would assume that PW2 was published after PW1. Indeed, the file name comparison showed no duplication between them. However, in my review of PW1, I found only a 41% hit factor. Perhaps PW1's success led it's producers to become overly aggressive or perhaps somewhat lax in acquiring scans for PW2. There doesn't seem to be an original GIF on it. The hit list is as follows: Seedy 6-Pak 3132 7th Heaven 0 Busty Babes 1 114 Busty Babes 3 230 Ecstasy 182 FAO-2 170 FAO-3 239 FAO-GOLD 211 PCPIX-1 186 PCPIX-2 557 PCPIX-3 89 Visual Fntsy 253 PW1 0 Storm-3 366 I didn't unzip and view all of the 100+ animation files on PW2, but going by their file names, one could expect a similar "re-hash" factor among them as well. Operations to follow... --- Blue Wave/RA v2.10 * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 2869 To: ALL Date: 08/03/93 6:05p Subj: Review of Pork-Ware II (con't) Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Operations ========== PW2 came with the same 3-1/2" support disk that was packaged with PW1. It's interesting to note that the installation instructions printed on the jewel box insert do not mention this diskette, and in fact describe an entirely separate and disparate installation procedure. Like PW1, both CSHOW and VPIC are on the CD, but installation from the support diskette forces VPIC as the default viewer. A rather weak attempt at video auto-configuration is attempted via WHICHVGA. Apparently the supplied version of this video BIOS-peeking program is somewhat dated (like PW2's GIFs) as it failed to correctly recognize and configure VPIC for my S3-based board. (In contrast, SHOWOFF on Busty Babes Rel. 3 did auto-configure itself correctly for my video setup so I know it can be done.). If you have an older board, say TS-4000 or before, then you'd probably get a good hint from WHICHVGA that would let you complete installation OK. Installation ends with the copying of VIEWPORK.BAT to your DOS directory (if you choose). Typing in VIEWPORK will cause a .BAT-file generated menu to appear from which a viewing selection from the directories can be made. Since I use neither CSHOW nor VPIC on a regular basis, I found the VIEWPORK.BAT file most handy for clipping out and saving the "directory menu" for use when viewing PW2 files. There are some file description files on PW2. They are in the LIST directory and are called "X01.DIR" and so forth. I'm not sure what BBS format that nomenclature or the internal format of the contents represents, but the file descriptions appeared to be fairly accurate accounts of the files' contents. What was poor was that the correspondence between the .DIR files and the actual directory names was wrong except for two directories. The real correspondence is as follows: .DIR file (REALLY goes with) Directory --------- --------- X01 X13 X02 X23 X03 X21 X04 X20 X05 X22 X06 X03 X07 X01 X08 X05 X09 X04 X10 X10 (CORRECT) X11 X19 X12 X08 X13 X07 X14 X09 X15 X06 X16 X12 X17 X11 X18 X02 X19 X14 X20 X15 X21 X16 X22 X17 X23 X18 X24 X24 (CORRECT) Visual to follow... ...

What makes it a bit unusual is the inclusion of a directory (X13) of nude male GIFs. Beyond that, if you already own at least one of the comparison CDs, there's nothing in PW2 that you haven't seen before, subject-wise. If you own the Seedy ROM series, you LITERALLY have seen it all before or at least have access to it. The quality (i.e. sharpness, etc.) of most of the scans was pretty good although some images clearly looked like second or third generation copies of the original. I don't understand this, particularly with such a high re-hash factor. I could (and did) find better images of the same scan on my Seedy ROM CDs. Some of the poorer GIFs were recognizable as cropped portions of the original scan which had been "zoomed" to full-screen size and thereby lost some sharpness. Others, for example the "Fourth of July at Lake Tahoe" series, were just plain blurry - cause unknown. I would also mention that of the 39 file names that weren't "hits" in the file name data base, visual inspection revealed that 27 of them were indeed "old friends" sporting different names. Bottom line: at best there's about 12 "new" files on this CD. That makes them cost about $2 each at current street prices. Given that, the very high re-hash factor, and the mixed-up file listings, I can't recommend PW2 as a good value. Any of the comparison CDs would be a much better choice. # # # ... deny thy father and forget thy tagline. --- Blue Wave/RA v2.10 * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: DAVID BALNITES Number: 2871 To: RAY HEROLD Date: 08/03/93 9:32p Subj: TCM/Night Owl Newsletter.

I guess it's still possible that it could be the CDs, but it doesn't seem likely to me. My plan now is to check with the tech people at Mitsumi and try to get this problem resolved without my users having to do without access to the CDRom for an extended period of time. I'm also going to go by the dealer's store where I bought the reader and try the CDs in some of their other Mitsumi CDs to be fair.

TTYL I called the Mitsumi tech people yesterday and they seemed to think it was a software problem. Their suggestion was to change the parameters in MTMCDD to disable DMA transfers and use software transfers(while still using the DMA software). Sounds confusing, doesn't it? Anyway, it didn't cure the problem. I can still read the CDs that I could read, and can't read the CDs that I couldn't read. I'm goimg to the dealer with the CDs today and try them in his shop and see what develops. This is very frustrating, because I want to add some more CDs to my rotation schedule, and until I know exactly what's happening I can't afford to spend any more money on CDs. I already have two that I can't use, and can't afford to end up with any others. Depending on what I find out at the dealer, I'll call Mitsumi again, pull out all my hair, jump off a cliff, or something. I hate to take the CD offline because it's my main source of files. But if it's a problem with the drive I might have to do so. Ron ... ARRRRRGGGHHH!!!! ... Tension breaker, had to be done. ___ Blue Wave/QWK v2.12 --- Maximus 2.01wb * Origin: River Canyon Rd.

Make sure that your system meets all reguiremnts in the area of hardware other than just the cd rom. What is your buffer amount, some cds are hard to access if you have this setting to low. Some cds even require a certian access time, if they do they list it on the box. Make sure you have enough base memory.If you can load cd driver in high memory. Increase buffer to max. Make sure you have most current driver upgrade. Then make sure the operating software on cd can be handled by your other computer hardware. If the operations file needs 575k in lower memory and you have only 517k then as in a floppy you can access cetain files and exicute certain functions but if the operations file doesn't load then the language will not be available for certian operations and certain files. Finnaly when all your hair is gone then try booting with a floppy and not using your hard drive at all. after booting of dos floppy try accessing cd rom. Only dos operating file and cd drivers will be in memory if this solves the problem then you have a conflict in your config or autoexec file. My cd rom drivers are not memory resedent at boot. I use a menu program that I have set up to load drivers independently of boot. that saves me base memory. Lastly read the rom box make sure your system meets all requirements. If all else fails shoot system and call insurance company.(grin) --- GTMail 1.000 * Origin: The E-LINK bbs 214-680-8119 (1:124/5146.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ALLAN KENNEDY Number: 2987 To: JOE HAYES Date: 08/07/93 12:04p Subj: WANT TO SWAP Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No > AK> I would like to get a faster cd-rom.

Hi Larry. I am currently running the Pioneer 604X on my Spitfire BBS with 6 discs online. I am using SF-Rom as my door. This works great due to the features built into the door program. Multi-node BBSes are supported, and if a second caller tries to access the drive while the first is on it, he will receive a busy signal to prevent the drive from swapping back and forth between disks. The author, Mike Robinson, recently released a new version for any BBS that uses the door.sys user info file. The name of the file is EZROM120.ZIP and can be downloaded from Computer Works on the first call. The Spitfire version is called SFROM120.zip. The CD-Rom door that you choose to run CD's from is very important. Jim... Computer Works CD-Rom Sales!

I had some proplems with AB> some programs due to memory.One the cd there is a operating program that AB> must become resident in memory. Make sure that your system meets all AB> reguiremnts in the area of hardware other than just the cd rom. What is I haven't even been able to get the CD operating program to load. I don't think I need it for my purposes though, I'm using the CD to supplement my file areas on my BBS. AB> your buffer amount, some cds are hard to access if you have this setting AB> to low. Some cds even require a certian access time, if they do they list AB> it on the box. Make sure you have enough base memory.If you can load cd AB> driver in high memory. Increase buffer to max. Make sure you have most I've tried no buffers, maximum buffers. On base memory, before loading the BBS software I have about 620k+. After loading the BBS I still have 350k more or less. I'm running MTMCDE 2.10a now, but that hasn't seemed to make any difference. AB> file doesn't load then the language will not be available for certian AB> operations and certain files. AB> Finnaly when all your hair is gone then try booting with a floppy AB> and not using your hard drive at all. after booting of dos floppy try AB> accessing cd rom. Only dos operating file and cd drivers will be in memory AB> if this solves the problem then you have a conflict in your config or AB> autoexec file. My cd rom drivers are not memory resedent at boot. I use a AB> menu program that I have set up to load drivers independently of boot. One of the salesmen at the dealer seems to think that there might be a conflict between my SCSI interface and the CDRom. So I'm going to switch the CDRom out to another system I have that is identical to the one it's in now except that this other system has IDE drives. If it works then, I'll know where the problem is. Don't know what I'll do, but I'll know which direction to head in. AB> that saves me base memory. Lastly read the rom box make sure your system AB> meets all requirements. If all else fails shoot system and call insurance AB> company.(grin) With my luck, the insurance man is probably reading these messages as we speak :).

I just joined this echo, so you probably havn't seen me before. The disk that Mike is refering to, (I believe), is my disk, and it will be called the OS2 Quarterly Bible. It will contain about 550 megs of the latest Util, Games, CSD'S, IBM Text Files, Several Commercial Demo's, as well as a ton of other stuff.... It will be BBS ready for both PCBoard, and Files.bbs systems... The only hold up on the disk right now is getting the front end finnished. I was hoping to have the disk released before Sept 1, but if I have to wait for the front end to be finnished, it will be about 3 weeks late. Here is a question for you.... Would you release the disk without a front end,or would you prefer to wait 2 to 3 weeks longer???. We could have filled the disk with 650 or so megs, but we only wanted the premier programs on the disk. We didn't see the need to just use "FILLER". The disk will be release approx 4 times a year, but will only contain PREMIUM material.

I have been using one of this things for over 6 months and like the advanages it gives you. In response to your question, yes each cd is adressable as a drive letter. Its your software driver that interfaces the drive to the system. However, when you change to another drive, the pioneer has to change the platter. This slows the access down.

While this type of claim does sound impressive - don't be fooled, there's still a lot to be said for carefully compiled discs that contain older archives too. Jem Disc I is one of these discs. Consider: Suspose you are a modem enthusiast (we think you might be since you are reading this on a BBS): Our disc contains a lot wonderful programs that you might miss out on if you only stick to the newest compilation. For instance Jem Disc contains awesome (and stable) versions of TELIX, PROCOMM, QMODEM (b4 & after Mustang bought it), TELEMATE, COMMO, BOYAN, GT POWERCOM, LYNX, and many others all on the same disc. When you're ready to try out external protocols you'll find essentials like DSZ, HSLINK & BIMODEM and also the oddballs like MPT, JMODEM, HYPER, CMODEM, SEALINK. To get up and running quickly try Byte Brothers classic POWERNODE. Try finding the last Forbin project version of Qmodem (4.31) on one of the 'latest' discs. And speaking of Boyan v5.0 - that IS the latest version of the program. Some authors don't see the need to upgrade perfectly good software every other week. Think about DSZ for a second - it's a great protocol, but have you _really_ noticed that much of a difference between the '92 version on Jem Disc I and the more recent release? We didn't think so. Another point to ponder - sometimes an author adds features that aren't to your liking, for instead of removing a bug he _introduces_ a bug with a new version. It's good to have the old and the new around. Finally, sometimes authors get feature fever or technology crazy (perhaps because of all the great computer equipment they can afford from user registrations). When this appens, you can't even _run_ the latest version of a program. What good is having a Summer '93 release of SUPERTELEMODEMPLUS when the dang thing needs 8 megs of memory just to get off the ground? All the sudden the newest release lost a lot of its luster. Oh well, you get the idea. Newer isn't always better - So consider adding a disc full of 'classics' to round out your collection. One of the best is Jem Disc I - now only $19.95 plus shipping or handling OR for a limited time only $14.95 (straight up!) IF you trade in one of your yucky discs (in good, resellable condition). Mind you, the files aren't THAT old - after all Jem Disc I was pressed less than one year ago, but in the hypertime of Shareware Land that seems like an eternity to some. FREQ from 1:203/49 JEMDISC and/or JEMTRADE & while you are here pick up JEMFILES for a complete listing of ALL the kuel files on the collection (in FILES.BBS format). If you can't FREQ, call my BBS at 916-921-9949 and download these from my logon matrix (enter JEM at the DOS prompt). If you stayed with me this far - thanks! And Freq these files - you won't regret it!

I have found that my Mitsumi is particularly sensitive to a dirty disc. I had problems with reading a particular disc. All it took was a wipe with a damp cloth. If your having problems with hit or miss reading or reading errors this is something you might want to try. I would not recomend using a paper towel as they tend to leave little pits of paper on the disc which could scratch it.. I use a felt cloth that I got to clean my guitar. Most of the time I don't even need to wet the cloth.. just wipe it down. The Mitsumi I have is especially sensitive to dirt... This always seems to work. -Ben --- Maximus 2.01wb * Origin: The Last Chance Saloon - Net 320 Hub 500 (1:320/160) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ALAN WILLIAMS Number: 3123 To: DAVE REED Date: 08/07/93 9:02a Subj: ADULT TITLES Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No ->(1:300/9) -> APPARENTLY THERE ARE MORE THAN DAVE REEDS THAN JUST I.

This does not indicate that they have access to my password, simply that we work in different parts of the world. In the event that more than one of us happen to use the same BBS system, obviously one of us has to alter our name in order for both of us to use the system, since only a single registration is permitted per system under a given user name. To check whether or not your access has been usurped, note when you last used the BBS, the check your user profile the next time that you log into the system. For example, with PCBoard, it tells you exactly when the last call was (date and time), so it is easy to verify that you are the only person using your information. Hope this puts you at ease.

I am, like you SF>looking for a good cd rom cache program? If I could only find Norton SF>Speedcache+ at a good price? I highly recommend the PC Kwik Power Pak for only $39. I just got it and I am VERY pleased with it. It includes the Super PC-Kwik cache (both hard drives and CD-ROMs), a Print Spooler (works in Windows as well as DOS -- faster than Print Manager), Screen Accelerator (for text modes), Keyboard Accelerator, Command Line Editor, KwikBoot (Change your boot configuration from a menu of up to 100 configurations at boot time), and Power Disk (HD Defragger). Super PC-Kwik is a very fast cache (the fastest I have tried) and dynamically allocates memory to programs as it is needed. That is, all available memory is used for a cache; however, if a program is loaded that requires more memory Super Pc-Kwik lends it the memory it needs and then takes it back when the program is done. This package of programs is an incredible bargain for only $39, plus it comes with a 90 day money back guarantee if you decide that you are not satisfied with it! You can call PC-KWIK to order at 1-800-444-5945.

I wanted you to give me a reference for a Good CD ROM Disk to buy from you. I run a Gaming BBS. I am looking for a disk with NOTHING but Shareware and P.D. Games and Cracks. I'd like it to be all DOS or MOSTLY DOS (some windows Games are OK). I am already a distributor of Apogee, Epic MegaGames and Software Creations, so those wouldn't necessarily need to be on it, but I'd like it to be good quality games, not just a bunch of junk. Of course they would have to be archived and with FILES.BBS in the directories, and I would like to have as much of the disk filled as possible (in the 600-640 meg range). Lastly, I'd like for it to be mostly '93 and late '92 games. Got anything like that? Lemme know. Also I'll be pre-paying, so give me the info and total cost to do so. Thanks!

Two days after I got BBR3 I posted a three page review rite cheer on this here echo. I still have a hardcopy of it; if you like I'll mail you one. I didn't talk too much about the GIFs but I went into quite a monologue about SHOWOFF. Basically I said it represented the state-of-the-practice if not the state-of-the-art in GUI front ends for CDs. I only cited a few negatives such as the reduced images being quite "grainy", etc. and I said to you personally at the end of the review that I hoped all your future releases would include SHOWOFF as their user interface. Now you've got me concerned that the BBS I use had a glitch and didn't get the mail out that particular time. Does ANYONE recall reading my review of Busty Babes Release 3.0??

Seems to me that if downloads are front-ended by copies to a hard drive, that speed is still relevant insofar as it speeds the copy step. 3) I've also heard it said that a nanny machine (i.e. a server) is needed for multiple CDRoms on a multi-line BB because CDRom drives use DMA interrupts and tie the rest of the system up too much. If I have a SCSI card that doesn't use DMA interrupts, does that reduce or eliminate the need for a server machine? --- TMail v1.31.5 * Origin: Food-For-Thought, Paoli PA 215/251-9387 (1:273/318) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: CHRIS WISE Number: 3363 To: WES TAPP Date: 08/14/93 7:06p Subj: Mitsumi Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No There is a new driver out for Mitsumi which will allow qemm to load the driver high.

There may be a few "word glitches" but I think it's readable. I package this as three messages to you. ======================================================================== First, many thanks to "Lady Lee" (Noga) of Florida Lion's Den, Inc. (FLD) for sending me a copy of "Busty Babes Volume #1 Release 3.0" (BB3) for review. Secondly, this review will follow the format, style, and content paradigms that were used in my reviews of "Digital Dreams" (Ero Tek) and Pork Ware 1" inasmuch as there will be three parts: Statistics, Operations, and Visual. I will use the same criteria as I outlined in my previous descriptions of those parts. Thirdly, having learned that FidoNet can tolerate reasonably long posts, I'll use only three messages for this review, one for each of the parts named above. Finally, remember, WHAT FOLLOWS IS ONE PERSON'S OPINION. While I try very hard to be as objective as possible in writing these reviews, (objectivity is part of what I do to satisfy Maslow), individual preferences, both mine and yours, will always introduce some level of subjectivity, particularly in the operations and visual parts. All set? Here we go..... Statistics ========== This section focuses on numerical data relative to the physical contents of the CD. Let me begin by stating that measuring the exact number of files on a CD isn't as simple as it may sound, nor all that important. Most CDs these days have thousands of files on them, particularly image CDs and shareware CDs. While one might assume that a simple DIR would suffice to determine the number of files on a CD, it won't. First, DIR will count the "." and ".." subdirectory "files" (note: these have been taken into account in the figures below). Secondly, even when using DIR with a "qualifier" like *.GIF, a directory may show files that aren't actually there, or are corrup- ted in some way (BB3 has a few of these, too) that makes them useless and therefore might as well not be there. Finally, what my CD-ROM drive can read, yours may not, and vice-versa. Accordingly, when I give various counts and sizes and you subsequently find that your stats don't EXACTLY agree with mine, don't take it too hard. BB3 disclosed a count of 2663 GIF files (not counting the catalog files - more on those later) totaling 499 Mb. That yields an average byte size of 187 Kb per GIF which is consistent with the observation that most of the GlFs are either 800x600 or 640x480 in resolution and most occupy relatively large portions of the screen when displayed normally. All told, the CD disclosed 3278 files occupying 528 Mb. The difference of 615 files is accounted for by the 200 catalog GIF files and by the utilities and other programs included on the CD. Operations to follow... ... Alas! The poor Tagline. I knew it well. --- Blue Wave/RA v2.10 * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 3404 To: LEE NOGA Date: 08/15/93 4:57p Subj: BB3 Review 2 of 3 Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Operations ========== This part of the review focuses on those aspects of the CD that effect convenience and usability. It is, therefore, somewhat more subjective than the statistical part. I'm not a sysop so I'm not too interested, and certainly not knowledgeable in the "BBS Ready" aspects of CDs. However, knowing that any of you are sysops, I'm including what I found about those characteristics vis-a-vis BB3. Perhaps a more qualified person can correct or amplify my findings later on. There are indeed FILES.BBS files in each of the sub-directories. Moreover, there are (untested by me) utilities to convert them to any of several BBS formats including: PCBoard, WildCat, Tag, Maximus/Opus, Telegard, SpitFire, Renegade, and QBBS. Random sampling of the FILES.BBS revealed that their contents contained appropriate descriptions, and by and large correct spellings and grammar, etc. There is also an ALLFILES.LST and utilities to convert/generate others for several BBS systems. Additional utilities include late versions of both CSHOW and VPIC as well as some nice-to-haves like a GlF-to-EXE converter (makes a GIF into a self-displaying .EXE file); programs to print GlFs on various types of printers; etc. All in all, I can't imagine that anyone would really NEED any more GIF support than is included on the CD, though preference may dictate other choices. BB3's directory organization differs substantially from that in BB1 (but again, probably less so than with BB2's). There some are 27-odd sub-directories, 19 of which are given over to GIF imaqes (not counting the catalog GIFs). Given what I can recall from BB2, and several hour's of experience with BB1 =(:> I'd iay that BB3's structure is generally an improvement, save one case. By improvement I mean that CD's contents are better organized from the standpoint that the names of the sub-directories give better clues to their contents. The exception is the "FETISH" directory which contains 99% S&M or B&D type images. On BB1, these images were more appropriately in the "SM,BD" directory. The word Fetish is too broad a term to be limited to S&M and B&D. I suspect there were "hidden agenda" reasons behind the re-naming. The "gem" of BB3 is her user interface (to use a little personification). While the ever-reliable text-based CDMENU interface is also included, FLD has also provided a GUI-like interface via a program appropriately called "SHOWOFF" (SO). Now as anyone who has tried more than one GIF viewer knows, no one program is going to be all things to all people. However, some come a lot closer than others. SO is in this category. To begin, installation is simple and goof-proof. FLD included some SO "quick start" instructions with BB3 that were error free. Basically, you're asked a few simple questions (like what's the letter designation of your CD-ROM drive). From there, some supportinq files and programs are copied to your HDD and you're returned to DOS. A simple "SOCD" (or S0CD16 if you're not SVGA) and, as the Enqlish say: "Bob's your uncle!" meaning "That's that!" You're up and running and ready to look at the lovely ladies of BB3. After a startup screen, you can pick and choose among directories, do point-and-click selection from a "catalog" of reduced-size images (too large to be described as "thumbnail"), and go on to zoom in, zoom out, pan in all directions, etc. While it would take far too much space to do and inside-out reuiew of SO here, I will say this much: From a viewers standpoint, SO is, HANDS DOWN, the slickest "no-brainer" user interface to an image CD to come down the pike to date. For all sorts of reasons, I tried hard not to like SO or at least not let it beguile me. I had to look pretty hard to find any chinks in its armor. I found a few, but they were small. First, the reduced-size images are quite grainy due to (I assume) little or no antialiasing during their creation. This is annoying but not debilitating because as the mouse pointer passes over each reduced-size image, the appropriate description from FILES.BBS is displayed at the bottom of the screen. If you can't make out what's in the picture (a rare occurrence), this description will help. Secondly, the "hide/restore" feature (handy if nwelcome kibitzers happen by) only works from the main K/B "-" key; the keypad "-" key (if you have one) won't work. Thirdly, SO scribbles a lot on the HDD while you're viewing images. A slow drive will likely adversely affect performance unless a "smart" HDD cache with queued writes is used. Perhaps worst, the included version of SO seemed to be locked in 640x480 resolution. Higher resolution images had to be manually zoomed in on to their full size on the screen. I couldn't figure out how to tell SO that my video setup was capable of a lot more. I also couldn't find out how to run a slideshow although browsing through the documentation seemed to indicate that such a feature exists. Also, there was no indication how reduced-size images are created so I can't say how hard it would be to set up your own catalogs from other GIF collections. Presumably, if one orders the standalone version of SO (order blank included), these things would become clear. Bottom line for SO: Slick, easy, and FUN to use for viewing BB3 images. There are a number of files in SO's HDD directory for configuration, runtime "notes", etc. hinting at some fairly sophisticated capabilities which aren't evident in the included version. How difficult such capabilities might be to set up and use are beyond the scope of this review. Bottom line for BB3 operations: Pure joy. Fast, intuitive, and seemingly bulletproof. Novices will especially like its convenience and "old pros" will appreciate the effort the producers put into it. If you don't have an adult CD and want one, BB3 would be a "'can"t lose"' choice. If you've already seen several or would like to see just how far GIF viewer technology has gone, BB3 and SO can provide you with an interesting excursion into "Gee whiz" land. Visual to follow. ...

Accordingly, it is more subjective than either of the two preceding parts. and should be taken as such. Like its forebearers, BB3 is a full-blown X-rated CD. Some of its images are as raw as raw legally gets. It's worth noting that a large number of the scans are R-rated in that, outside of exhibitionism, no sexual activity is depicted at all. This is primarily true of the "BUSTYn" directories (O <= n <= 6). Comparing BB3 GIF files names against my those in my data base taken from BB1 (Rel. I not Rel. 2), I found 1731 duplicate names. Had I been able to run the comparison against BB2, doubtless a larger number would have been forthcoming. Run against the whole data base, an additional 398 duplicate names were found. These numbers indicate that BB3 is indeed just as her producer advertised: essentially a re-make of BB2 to correct past "sins"', at least as far as credits for the GIF files are concerned. Within BB3 itself, I found 10 GIF files that were duplicated. That is, there are 10 pairs of files where each member of a pair contains exactly the same image. One of the pairs even shares the same name: "L_H0NEY5.GIF" which appears in two different directories. The other nine pairs have different names and appear in the same or different directories as their "image mates". There may be other pairs, but I didn"t detect them with my computer-aided processes. Like it predecessors, BB3's images are by and large quite good. Certainly they are on a par with contemporary releases. Most images are either 640x480 or 800x600 in resolution. The scans are generally sharp and professional looking in appearance. If you already have one or two of the more popular adult image CDs, (e.g. Ecstasy, FAO, Seedy ROM, etc.) you'll feel right at home with the quality of BB3's pictures. As previously mentioned, BB3's directory structure is an improvement over BB1 and BB2, IMHO. In addition, there are some scans that aren't in either of the predecessor volumes - not enough to warrant purchase solely based on that fact, but nice lagniappe if you're going to buy the disk anyway. Finally, there's a truly new directory in that all of its images (some 115 of them) are definitely not in either BB1 or BB2. That is the "MICHELLA"' directory and it's contents are exclusively scans of a lady by that name. These scans are soft and generally somewhat dark. They're pleasant enough; mostly "R to hard R'" and frequently with a lady friend only identified as "L" in tender-looking poses. If I had to chose a single word, on the whole (no pun intended) I'd call the "MICHELLA" pics "artistic". In sum, if you're lookinq for an adult CD with a variety of subject matter, BB3 would be a good choice. If you're a true collector, you'll probably want BB3 to complete the set; I'm sure FLD's not planning a Rel. 4.0 - there'd be no point to it. Release 1.0 is already a collector's item; Release 2.0 doesn't surrender anything meaningful to Release 3.0 in image content; Release 3.0's raison d'etre, outside of some mea culpa repair work, is SO. There's just no more mileage in this collection. So, Lee, what'cha got up your sleeves for us next? Whatever it is, make sure SO hangs in there! ======================================================================= There you are, Kind Lady.

Until formal charges were filed, all decisions on the future of the BBS were delayed. On Aug 13th, the Oklahoma County District Attorney's office finally filed felony charges. They were: 2 felony counts of selling obscene CD-Roms 1 felony count of possessing obscene CD-Roms 1 felony count of trafficking obscene material by electronic means. Of the 16 CD that were on the BBS, the 4 that were actually listed as obscene in the felony filing were: Busty Babes Vol 1 Storm 2 For Adults Only (FAO) 2 For Adults Only (FAO) 3 That last count is the kicker. Since the DA has decided that the BBS itself was in violation of laws, there seems little doubt that the OIE BBS equipment will not be returned prior to a long drawn out legal fight. Although I have every intention of filing whatever civil suites are necessary to get the equipment returned, I truly believe there will not be a quick return of OIE.

Until formal charges were filed, all decisions on the future of the BBS were delayed. On Aug 13th, the Oklahoma County District Attorney's office finally filed felony charges. They were: 2 felony counts of selling obscene CD-Roms 1 felony count of possessing obscene CD-Roms 1 felony count of trafficking obscene material by electronic means. Of the 16 CD that were on the BBS, the 4 that were actually listed as obscene in the felony filing were: Busty Babes Vol 1 Storm 2 For Adults Only (FAO) 2 For Adults Only (FAO) 3 That last count is the kicker. Since the DA has decided that the BBS itself was in violation of laws, there seems little doubt that the OIE BBS equipment will not be returned prior to a long drawn out legal fight. Although I have every intention of filing whatever civil suites are necessary to get the equipment returned, I truly believe there will not be a quick return of OIE.

My interface is ide. I did cheat a little in the installation because I had the installation software install the drive into autoexec and config then I removed the lines concerning the software interface and add it only on a menu program then I used qemm and quardeck managers to load all into high memory. Almost everytime had trouble with a software cd in was due to lack of memory on the low end .Example on my disc Great Literature a file named discpack must load into low memory or the cd will act like it doesnt exist. Without the file properly loaded the drive doesnt understand the data on the disc. With the software access file installed you should be able to get a e E:\ prompt and run a dir read. Some cd rom have files that are 570k and that 570k must go into low memory. You can have 32meg of memory but if only 565k are available low the cd wont read. The Comptions upgraded encyclopedia requires 4 meg operating memory, but a certain amount must be under 640k or base memory. Your cd rom should come up as e:\ and print out a dir list.This means that your rom "sees" the data. Once that is established then to "read" the cd the langage must be placed in low memory.This file is like the read files that load into memory when you run any program "they access the files" dos is not the langage of all of the things on the cd and certain compressions and data reguire that file to read. If you are able to come up with a e:\ drive and are able to see the data then you are having a memory or a software problem . --- GTMail 1.000 * Origin: The E-LINK bbs 214-680-8119 (1:124/5146.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ART BREAULT Number: 3584 To: RON MITCHELL Date: 08/19/93 7:54p Subj: Re: Mitsumi for sale Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Ron on various bbs's I have seen cd roms for sale with the scsi interface specified.

Look through those adds and find one that designates the interface call them an ask them why they reguire that interface. I prefer to access mine through the software because when I boot the computer the driver doesnt take up any memory till I use it. I have all my cd cataloged on a menu program called 3dmenu. The menu programs hold the dos commands in memory so that when I start a disc the menu programloads the driver then starts the disc that way the two files that run the cd are not in memory till the cd in actully called upon.As far as using a 16 bit card I belive you can. --- GTMail 1.000 * Origin: The E-LINK bbs 214-680-8119 (1:124/5146.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: JESS LEWIS Number: 3585 To: ALL Date: 08/19/93 9:13p Subj: re: scsi controller Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No I am looking for the cables and controller card for a Nec cdr25 cdrom reader if anyone would be interested in selling such please leave me a message here.

The models that appear in "SOUTHERN BEAUTIES" are not only extremely attractive but appear regularly in current issues of men's magazines and adult movies. For example, Katie appears on the front cover and inside of CLUB's October, 1993, issue and although they indicate she's 24 years old, she is presently 19 and was 18 and 19 years old when she posed for the images on "SOUTHERN BEAUTIES". Katie will also be in the October, 1993, issue of PENTHOUSE MAGAZINE. Crystal, Honey, and Angel are all STARRING in current adult videos under the names Crystal Wilder (24 years old), Bunny Blue (28 years old), and Angel Bust (23 years old) respectively; while others are presently appearing in adult videos. With the exception of a few, every model has been published. With regard to the models ages: Jade (19 years old) who also appears on the back cover of the disc Misty (18 years old) who also appears on the inside front cover Maria (33 years old) According to the photographer ALL the other models are between 19 years old and 29 years old WITH 90% OF THEM BEING BETWEEN THE AGES OF 20 and 24 YEARS OLD. I did not want to inconvenience the photographer for more detailed information. I suggest if you did not find the models on "SOUTHERN BEAUTIES" to be young enough, that you find a supplier of kiddie porn and HAVE A GOOD TIME! We have had complaints about the disc not being for use on BBSs, but none about the ages of the models or the fact that they are not attractive. To the SYSOPS who do not like the fact that "SOUTHERN BEAUTIES" can not be put on their BBS, we have recommended that they offer the disc for sale on their BBS. Many of them that followed our advice have found that they can make more money from the sales of "SOUTHERN BEAUTIES" than they do from subscription fees. --- QuickBBS 2.80 GoldBase (Beta-7) * Origin: The Wizard of OS/2 - <407> 865-5421 (1:363/6969) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BLAINE RICHARD Number: 3600 To: JEFF COCHRAN Date: 08/19/93 5:46p Subj: Re: NEW CD SOUTHERN BEAUTIES Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No In a message to Blaine Richard <08-15-93 13:43> Jeff Cochran wrote: JC> > ********** SOUTHERN BEAUTIES MAY NOT BE USED ON ANY BBS JC> JC> Kinda cuts its market...

In the beginning there was CDMAXDOR, and it worked ok on some boards but was not capable of doing some things that it should and gave some folks fits. As a result of many suggestions from CDMAXDOR users and other sysops, here is CDMX2DOR, a CDRom-BBS interface door that, I believe, you'll find to be a superior product. The latest version of CDMX2DOR is available for F'Req at 1:232/31 as well as are a number of other doors we've written. WHAT WILL CDMX2DOR DO? In a word.... EVERYTHING. Some features: o it will work with ANY BBS software (not just MAXIMUS) that is capable of writing a long-style (52 line) DOOR.SYS drop-file, e.g., WILDCAT, PCB, GAP, etc. If your system can't write a long-style DOOR.SYS, then you may still use this software via a door conversion program that makes long-style DOOR.SYS files. o it will allow you to control the number of KBytes that a user may access from your CD's in a given day so as to prevent file leaching. o it will allow viewing of textfiles and will unarchieve zips for viewing as well. o it will automatically update MAXIMUS BBS user's files to reflect their CDRom downloads. Other boards' auto- updating of user's download stats is not yet supported but will be (for registered users).

Tape drive interfacing may be supported in future versions to registered users. If you want to squeeze every possible drive for online files for your users, you can even have CDMX2DOR access files off your B:\ drive for an additional 1.44 meg of files online. o it has beautiful ansi graphics and also supports non-ansi use. o it will allow you to have as many as 34 CD's online, each in its own drive, from which users may select o it will support CD's with as many as 99 subdirectories and you can break down a CD that has more than 99 subdirectories into 2 or more sub-sets (thereby making CDMX2DOR capable of handling any CD regardless of its number of subdirectories). o it is fully configureable. It will work with: o CD's with files.bbs in separate subdirectories on the CD. o CD's with dirx.lst in separate subdirectories on the CD. o You can even specify what file it should look for to find subdirectory listings, e.g., files.bbs, dirx.lst, files.lst, DIR, or whatever you have. o CD's that have their files.bbs's or whatever, in a single subdirectory on the CD instead of having them in each subdirectory. o It will even work with CD's that don't even have a files.bbs or other subdirectory --- SLMAIL v3.0 (#1187) * Origin: Searchlight City BBS (1:283/420) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: TOM SUTER Number: 3606 To: JOHN ROBINSON Date: 08/19/93 11:37p Subj: John W.

Almost any if you are on a lan and can spare an old 286 machine. Get a copy of OPTINET, hook any old CD-ROM drives onto their own controllers and configure them. Kick start OPTINET and away you go.

Free Spirit Software {of Columbus, Indiana}, the company I bought it from refuses to take it back and ProCD {of Marblehead, Massachusetts} the company that sells it refuses to do anything, period. I wasted $100. and hope you won't. It is advertised as being "The National Telephone Directory on CD-ROM" but the listings are not up to date and are not searchable by category. The SIC codes are very much mis-labeled which makes searching a classification to be a time waster. I am used to seeded lists but not to inaccurate ones. For instance weight reduction companies are listed as Escort services. Several other retail stores are too. My business is not listed, despite being in the yellow pages for six years. My residential number is incorrect. I specifically wanted this resource to make a mailing list for reaching 130 retail stores in a chain. I do business with several and wish to reach more of them. Most have been in business for more two years, 70 of them have been in business for more than five years, and should be on a list that claims to be for 1993. Only 26 of them were listed and the addresses of some of them are incorrect. In checking listings for several companies that I do business with, I found the number of employees to be wrong, stores established three years ago to be missing, and SIC codes to be in error. Please save yourself the aggravation and folly of dealing with this product. Get your mailing lists from a reputable company with a track record that is willing to guarantee the accuracy of their product. ProCD does not, and Free Spirit wishes to stand behind a policy of "we just re-sell it, it is up to you to know the product".

Incase no one answers your question quickly.. here is what I understand of the drive.. There is a program called DISK that comes with it.. and you simply type DISK 1 or DISK 2 from the DOS prompt to change disks.. You may daisy chain up to (either 7 or) 8 drives this way.. using a different drive letter for each CDROM drive (the machine, not discs). You may also configure it to where each disc is a different drive letter.. ie. D: E: F: G: H: I: for the first CDROM machine, and so on.. But you can only daisy chain 2 drives with this configuration. Hope this helps.. Mike --- Pharside! Mailer --- 1993 * Origin: Take a walk along the Pharside!!

This -> means that -> If the disc was free ($0), what percentage sales tax did they -> apply to get $3.78? They apply a 7% GST tax and a 5-6% duty on the retail value of the package - if there's any indication of what the normal charge would be, they charge it on that. If there's no indication, they'll estimate (and you can bet its high). They don't care if you're trading discs, getting free demos, or receiving a disc that came from Canada in the first place (according to a local *slightly rude* Customs officer). The bonus kicker is that software is supposed to be duty free under the Free Trade Act... but you have to prove the item originated in the US or Canada, AND they claim the CD-ROM (the discs itself, not the software on it) is not included in the Act.

Each of these will contain a file or group of related files, all of them in straight text form.

(113 L Ed 2d 358), decided March 27, 1991. It provides a clear, concise and pretty 'final' view of what copyright means for fact- based compilations (such as the nodelist; the specific compilation in this case was the telephone White Pages--they aren't subject to copyright protection, even as a whole). One of the key things it says is that 'facts' cannot be protected by copyright and that anyone can extract them from a compilation at will, even though the compilation itself may meet copyright requirements for 'originality' and be subject to copyright protection. Beyond that, a copyright does not give an author authority to dictate how his work may be used; it only protects him from defined 'infringement' (unauthorized duplication, performance, etc.). In order to provide the sort of protection, or control, you are speaking of, one might distribute material under license or contract, such as is done for software and maintenance documentation (not that the 'shrink wrap' license is a settled matter). Here, in theory at least, the two parties agree as to conditions of use. --- Maximus 2.01wb * Origin: Dynasty, PO Box 12, Elk Grove, CA 95759 916-686-6946 (1:203/10) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: CHRIS JOHNSON Number: 3689 To: JIM ORCHARD Date: 08/21/93 11:38a Subj: multi-speed cd-rom Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No JO> I am looking for a good (new condition) multi-spin cd-rom drive I would JO> prefer it if it came with a controller also.

Maybe I'm so confused I just don't understand, but I think a bit differently from you in choosing the settings. RM>I am posting the AUTOEXEC.BAT file RM>C:\QEMM\LOADHI /R:2 FILES 40 ^ Wise choice! It shows you have read the manual, unusual for MOST users. Most folks think that FILES belongs in Config.sys with QEMM, and they are just wrong! BTW, you have FILES in Config.sys ALSO! I didn't know the command would work without an "=" sign. RM>SET TEMP=c:\DOS Not really a wise choice. The function of SET TEMP is to designate a place that applications can use for a temporary scratchpad. Most folks have a separate directory; many use C:\TEMP or similar. You are at risk of having something valuable in C:\DOS scribbled over or corrupted. RM>and CONFIG.SYS file RM>DEVICE=C:\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS R:2 exclude=A000-C7FF RAM DBF=2 xst=c000 ST:M ^^^^^^^^^ Thjis is a LOT of space to exclude. Most folks get by with excluding only the video portion B000-B0FF, while others need as much as B000-BFFF. You ought to consider a Manifest analysis of your real needs; I'll bet you'd get back a LOT of memory. RM>Files = 10 RM>buffers=10 How do you manage to get by with only 10 buffers here? I needed 40 for many things, and Alpha 4 demanded 50! Notice the 10 files, see above. RM>DOS=HIGH,umb ^^^^ I'm surprised it works. This is ignored by QEMM, and has been for several versions. See the manual. That ",UMB" is a crutch needed by the lesser-equipped memory managers. RM>LASTDRIVE=H Another wise choice; too many folks waste space by using "Z". RM> The exclude A000-C7FF and xst=C000 RM>are for the Speedstar 24x vidio board in my system.. Oh. Well, that's a heck of a lot of memory, a lot more than most boards.

I am having problems with My first time. My set up seems to comply with the suggested one in the insert in the disk "jewel box" ie it has 2048 ram and expanded memory etc. However, after the disk " asks" which resolution I want and I reply. I get the annoucement " intermission" and the advice to change to disk 2. I get exactly the same situation with disk 2. Any suggestions as to how to get the movie going? Or maybe other readers of the echo could advise. The other disks in the order work perfectly. ___ Blue Wave/QWK v2.12 --- Maximus 2.01wb * Origin: The Eagle's Nest BBS (1:249/152) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ANISH ACHARYA Number: 3746 To: DOUG SNELL Date: 08/22/93 9:24p Subj: Remote Access 2.00 Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Doug: I have it and I have it set up.

I play my cd as an audio, using PLAYCD, whenever I'm JR> not using it for a ROM drive and it works except whenever I JR> start an UPLOAD it stops. What makes this so confusing is that JR> it just keeps right on trucking when I download leading me to JR> believe that there's no interupt conflict. This is the only JR> time I have problems with it. It's a Mitsumi internal using the JR> latest drivers. I use telix on com 1, with a USR 14.4, and JR> either Zmodem or HSlink. Jim, I don't think it is solely a CD-ROM problem. I think it's in Telix. It might also have to do with using COM1 (or 3) which have an IRQ that is lower in priority than COM2 (or 4); that is to say, if the modem was on 1, and a mouse or something was on 2, the modem would pause in its work to allow the mouse to use the system. Hardly a good idea. Given an option, move the modem to 2 or 4. Next, I'd have to ask if the UART is at least 16550AFN, and did you tell Telix to enable it? (ALT-M,G,O) You get above 9600 speed with most modems, on most phone lines, they upchuck without the 16550 buffer. I frequently have a problem with uploads stopping in mid-stride, even at slower speeds, and the problem is NOT related to the CD-ROM. Telix does such a fine job of communicating by actually going into the heart of the machine, and not dealing with supportive circuitry, and absolutely not sharing resources with ANYthing else. That is why it will NOT work with any known FOSSIL. I have to use X00 FOSSIL to share the two COMports (1&3) I use with 2 Terminal Node Controllers on my Ham Radio station. As long as there is NO activity on either of these modem-like gadgets, I can upload on the telephone modem on COM4 with no problem. If a weather bulletin begins on COM3 meanwhile, Telix halts. Immediately! It just flat refuses to share the CPU with the other COM ports! But I can download at the same time on all 3! ~~~~~~~~ My only option is to kill the two TNCs when I wish to upload, and hope I remember to re-enable them when done. BTW, I use Telemate on the TNCs because it DOES allow FOSSIL sharing. If it were anywhere near as good as Telix on the phone, I'd use it there as well. I hope this helps somehow. the Jerry Murphy in Lakewood, Ohio * DeLuxe2 1.21 #8814 * Nature almost always sides with the hidden flaw. --- Squish/386 v1.10 BETA/3 * Origin: HelpNet For the Impaired - (216)-356-1872 (1:157/2) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: J.

You may contact Fay Sharp at TradeShows, Inc. at 317-651-1223 to get her pricing.

I missed the smiley at the end of your remark. I thought you had also misquoted my message. I just went back to double check whether it was possible that you had not misquoted my message and discovered you had not. All of the announcements of the release of "Southern Beauties" stated the disc contained "Over 65 'TOP' Models" except ONE (message of Aug 10, 1993) which did say "Over 65 Models". Since you were not trashing "Southern Beauties", I AM ONLY TOO HAPPY TO APOLOGIZE! I would have worded my reply differently simply to make certain that other people would not misunderstand. We went to a lot of trouble to make "Southern Beauties" as good a disc as possible; making sure that EVERY scan was extremely sharp, color corrected, and had a variety of poses on each model; with a variety of types of models. Again, I wrongly thought that you were trashing the disc and APOLOGIZE! --- QuickBBS 2.80 GoldBase (Beta-7) * Origin: The Wizard of OS/2 - <407> 865-5421 (1:363/6969) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: MARK GRYN Number: 3807 To: YVES DESJARDINS Date: 08/23/93 10:54a Subj: CD for trade...

Plus, if you want to cut a portion of a map, and import it into another program, you can do it. Street Atlas, besides having two year old data, doesn't have these features. Also, Precision Mapping runs faster because it doesn't have Windows hanging overhead. We have the updated version 1.5b in stock at $88 if you're interested. Street Atlas is also in stock at $86.

It cost me $169 and is not too bad of a sound card. There is a slot to upgrade to SCSI and there is also a slot (or whatever you want to call it) that will let you upgrade to wave table synthesis, just like the one on the Sound Blaster 16 (although I don't think the two daughterboards are interchangeable). The ATI Stereo F/X is also a Mitsumi-compatible sound card. Hope this helps! --- Maximus/2 2.01wb * Origin: Bowl of Chili!

You ought to consider a Manifest JM>analysis of your real needs; I'll bet you'd get back a LOT of memory. Windows would not run without this line. Not sure about the wrest. Anyway the book said to use it or turn off stealth in QEMM. I agree about the ammount of memory. JM>RM>Files = 10 JM>RM>buffers=10 JM>How do you manage to get by with only 10 buffers here? I needed 40 for many JM>things, and Alpha 4 demanded 50! Notice the 10 files, see above. I have gone to 8 buffers now. By using Smartdrive, there is no need for all the buffers. I use 8 because that is supose to be the default of DOS. Others report only using 2. Not real sure on the files thing. Found a hint some where to do it that way and the other files ( over 10 ) go into the uppper memory area. I will have to check on that sometime.. JM>RM>DOS=HIGH,umb JM>^^^^ JM>I'm surprised it works. This is ignored by QEMM, and has been for several JM>versions. See the manual. That ",UMB" is a crutch needed by the JM>lesser-equipped memory managers. Will give it a try. Read too many manuals and may have missed that. JM>RM>LASTDRIVE=H JM>Another wise choice; too many folks waste space by using "Z". Would have used an even lower one, but the CD-rom is labled G: in several places and too lazey to change it. JM>RM> The exclude A000-C7FFand xst=C000 JM>RM>are for the Speedstar 24x vidio board in my system.. JM>Oh. Well, that's a heck of a lot of memory, a lot more than most boards.

A new, user-editable line can be added to TELIX.CNF (but only with a text editor -- there was no room for this one under ALT-O): drivelst="acdxz" Each of the letters listed in quotes is validated as being a POTENTIAL drive letter (i.e. A-Z) and then added to the picklist. If you try to list a drive that doesn't exist, Telix will *accept* the drive unchecked, *until* you try to toggle to that drive via the box, at which time Telix will attempt to validate the drive, and will not allow the change. If this parameter is not listed in the config file, Telix will continue to validate all drives when you press PgUp or Alt-S. Add that line to the TELIX.CNF file and include ONLY the drive letters that you want Telix to look at (by default) when you do an upload.

You are correct that I would LOVE to have SYSOPS distributing "Southern Beauties". It is not Graphical Images of Florida's decision to not allow "Southern Beauties" to be used on BBSs. Most photographers make their living by selling or licensing the use of their work. In our contracts, it is forbidden to distribute the material without paying royalties to the photographer. As to whether or not only idiots can make money running a BBS, you need to be introduced to Rusty & Eddy's and Event Horizons, to name a few. As it is so difficult to make money operating a BBS, selling CDs can only help offset the costs. With the exception of a few, any disc that presently is allowed to be used on BBSs, probably violates copyrights and perhaps should not be put on a BBS. You may feel that distributing copyrighted material, for which royalties are not paid, is acceptable.

I (will) have an available 5.25" slot in tower case - Gateway 2000 486/33 system. Any known problems with the Toshiba and this computer? ? What's a good price for the drive? For the controller? ? Any recommendations on a good dealer for purchase of same? Do they possibly take used equipment in trade (otherwise, I gotta sell a couple of items before I can get the drive)? If you are a dealer, please leave price, etc. info if this is an appropriate conference. Or you can call me at 913-888-5201 ext.257 (8a-4p central, or leave voice mail). I need a package with the items listed above and a couple of disk caddies. No software required (I already have a CD ROM drive I'll be selling if I decide to get the new one).

Tyrone, As often happens in this ever-changing industry, the purchase price of various CD titles changes from week to week according to what the dealers are paying for them. In the case of Precision Mapping, we made an initial bulk purchase when they were brand new, at a given price. We set our price of $88 accordingly, based on a percentage markup of what we paid. When the stock ran out (of which you got one of the last ones), I found a different source that gave me a better price, hence the lower price of $79 which I pass to my customers. I am finding that it is quite common for new titles to enter the market high, as was the case with Night Owl 9 at around $50, and gradually or sometimes quickly depreciate as time wears on and the title becomes dated. As for Night Owl 9, for which I charged you $29 (not $28), that is my normal advertised price. Nonetheless, I have sold #9 to some of my customers who have asked me to match other dealers prices, and in the interest of good customer relations I'll honor your request.

The P.O. would not return it to Dave and when I called Fed.Ex they estimated $24 to $36 Can. depending on actual weight,to send it back.

In general, this review will follow the style and content paradigms of my past reviews, but with some added embellishments which I hope the reader will find useful and informative. I found this to be necessary because (a) in writing my past reviews, I've learned a few things; (b) it took me far longer to review SB than it has any previous adult CD; and (c) I think SB represents the coming trend in its genre and more expaded, more robust reviews will be warranted. Statistics ========== This section addresses the numerically measurable aspects of the CD under review. Computer examination of SB revealed 1240 usable images. Of this number, 1003 are GIFs and 237 are TIFF (Targa) files. The GIF files all report a resolution of 1024x768x256. The Targa files all report a 640x480x16M resolution. The GIFs occupy 359,280,955 bytes for an average size of about 358,306 bytes. Make no mistake, these are large files (more on this later in the VISUAL section). The Targa files uniformly report about 1,312,463 bytes/file occupying some 307,132,488 bytes in all. SB's scans are all originals as near as I could tell. I didn't run their names against my GIF file name data base to search for possible re-hashing because of that belief. Having said that, I did spot a few scans that were near twins of each other. While these wouldn't strictly qualify as duplicates, they're so close to each other in style that dropping one or the other from the CD's inventory would have been at no net loss. A few examples of these "near duplicates" are: ALITA_06 & _08, CASSY_08 & _09, and TRIO_06 & _10. Operations to follow... ...

Factors that influence both end-user and BBS usage are considered. This section necessarily has some subjectivity in it so it should be remembered that what follows is only one person's opinion. The CD "Southern Beauties" does indeed contain several text files in various directories that are uniformly named "FILES.BBS" (F.B). GIoF has taken pains both on this echo, in some files on the CD itself, and in SB's packaging to say that SB's images are NOT to be used on a BBS for downloading. Questions have been raised regarding that stance and the existence of F.B - the two things seemingly in contradiction with each other. I think I know the answer to this paradox which comes in multiple parts: First, and to satisfy a relevant point that has also been recently raised, these files do indeed follow the format of the original F.B specification: file names begin in column 1 followed by a 45 character (or less) file description beginning in column 14. Secondly, the F.B files that accompany the images in their respective directories are 100% useless for BBS use because every description is identical. Each and every such description says only that the file is copyrighted material of GIoF. At first glance, this may raise the question of why put such a F.B there if it's useless. I think that's the whole point. It is part of GIoFs attempt to ensure that SB won't be used on a BBS. After all, with a meaningless F.B, a sysop would have to either generate actual descriptions for some 1200+ files - something that's likely to make him miss Monday Night Football at least - or be content to listen to endless gripes from his users that the descriptions are useless. Neither is a productive pursuit. One could argue that simply leaving off F.B altogether achieves the same result which would seem a reasonable conclusion. An alternate answer is that F.B generation is a more-or-less by-product of the manufacturing process which is easier to make useless than to delete. I can't answer that point with any insight. Thirdly, there are a few truly usable F.B on SB. These are in the UTILITY directory, the VPIC directory, and the HELP directory. Reading through them with a text file viewer was educational. I expect that using the F.B template provided GIoF with a handy and intuitive way to place such helpful data on their product. This brings us to the organization, i.e. directory structure, of SB. There are no less than 72 directories on SB. Some 52 of them are apparently named after the models whose scans are contained therein. There are also 14 directories with the name "DUOnn_mm" where "nn" is 01-14 and mm is a serial number. Twelve of those directories uniformly contain scans of two women together (01-12). Two contain scans of one man and one woman together (13-14). There are three directories, MISC, TRIO, and 24BIT that also contain scans. MISC seems to have been where GIoF decided to dump a few scans (18) that otherwise didn't have a home. TRIO has 10 scans of two women and one man. 24BIT is where the 237 Targa files are located.

The HELP directory has some nice text files that any user would find useful, including descriptions of the pre-configured versions of VPIC that are included on SB. One flaw that was discovered: One of these files describes the installation and configuration of CSHOW. There is no version of CSHOW on the CD that I could find - and I looked pretty hard. Otherwise, these files are welcome and helpful. The VPIC directory contains 40+ pre-configured versions of VPIC version 6.0g. VPIC is a popular image file viewer. These are shareware versions and the user is encouraged to register the one he after a short trial period. The UTILITY directory is a bit curious. It contains AAPLAY and GRASPRT, two programs for viewing so-called "animated" files in .FLI and .GL formats, respectively. Since SB has no such files of either type on it, why are these "players" here? This directory also has a usable text file viewer if you're in need of one. Installation of SB is quite straight forward. If the instructions on the inside cover of the jewel case are followed, you will likely end up with at least a usable system, if not an optimal one. That procedure will default to the use of a VESA-configured version of VPIC (VPIC_43 on your dance card) which worked well with my S3-based setup. However, after reading the HELP directory files, I tried the included version of WHICHVGA which (a) couldn't identify my video board and therefore (b) promptly locked the system up to the point of requiring a cold boot to restart. A pretty unreasonale response just because it didn't know the answer, if you ask me. I did find three other usable versions of VPIC (i.e. besides the dafaulted _43 version) in this directory. All seemed to work very well for me with the exception of generating a slide show of Targa files. (Note: slide shows of the Targa files is only available while running VPIC "native". ROM_MENU won't tag non-GIF files for slide show viewing.) Only the left half of the first Targa image was displayed but all other images were displayed normally. When VPIC was subsequently terminated, COMMAND.COM would not/could not be reloaded and the computer had to be cold-started. Nonetheless, all in all, most everyone will find all they need to run and enjoy the scans on SB with minimum problems in this directory. For you Targa fans, there was one additional incident that's worth reporting: I found four .TIF files: DUO01_05, DUO02_06, DUO03_02, and HOLLY_01 that caused my favorite viewer GDS to immediately abort execution and take me back to the DOS prompt. These files were fully viewable with VPIC_43, however. GDS did this once before with one of the "swimsuit" CDs. I guess it's super-picky about Targa formats of headers, or something. For the remainder of the Targa files, GDS displayed them with unusual rapidity. They each "painted" quickly and continuously and very smoothly on the screen - the access light on my Sony 7205 staying on constantly. I've never seen it do that before! As for the user interface, those familiar with the CDMENU interface from Ecstasy or Busty Babes will be right at home. GIoF calls their interface ROM_MENU, but if it's not a clone of CDMENU, it so close to being one as to not to matter. Usability-wise, this is a decent, non-GUI (i.e. text-based) interface. Ease of navigation is its strongest point plus it can be used with any CD, not just SB. Visual to follow... ...

If you're not using an offline reader, you might consider downloading this message to save connect time. This area deals with the intrinsic qualities of the scans on the CD being reviewed. It is the most subjective area in the evaluation, so once again remember, what follows is one person's opinion. This is also the area that I've decided to add or at least call out separately, certain qualities or the lack thereof, which I will call "production values". The production values of SB are quite high. To begin, the jewel box has beautiful full-color inserts both front and back, with the front cover insert being two-sided. As an added bonus, the images on the inserts are true WYSIWYG - What You See Is What You Get - the pictures thus shown are also scans on the CD. A delightful change from some adult material advertising! Secondly, the installation procedures, as previously mentioned, will result in a usable configuration for most folks. If one isn't over-anxious to see all the pretty ladies, a browse through the text files in the HELP directory will be helpful in setting up a perhaps more optimized configuration, and it was a nice touch by GIoF to provide that capability. Secondly, a great number of the scans are FULL SCREEN in size. Oh, what a welcome sight! Thank you GIoF! Those that aren't truly full screen are either full screen in height or width, with the other dimension being well-proportioned. In short, there's NO lack of eyewash on this CD, and no need to squint or "zoom in". Other producers take note: The standard in this regard has been forever raised. Thirdly, being a truly new production, there are NO BBS ads on any of the scans. In fact, there's only a small, unobtrusive line at the bottom of most scans giving a copyright notice. (You missed a few GIoF, but not to worry.) The quality of the scans in SB is, in general, very high. I have some "constructive suggestions" to make later on, but for now, let's concentrate on the positive. To begin, let there be no mistake, the women of SB are gorgeous! Not only that, but they all seem to know it and are damn proud of it, thank you very much! If you're a sighted, heterosexual male (i.e. a card-carrying member of SB's targeted audience), and you subscribe to the mainstream of thinking about what represents feminine pulchritude, you're sure to find at least one, and probably several, "Fantasy Lovers" on this CD. If you can't, you're either one sexually burned out puppy, or you lied about meeting the above criteria. Other welcome amenities are, for example, models that are professionally made up, including attentions to detail like manicured fingernails; the use of new/fresh props and sets; etc. GIoF obviously paid a LOT of attention to the production of this CD, and it shows. A few comments about the DUO and TRIO directories' scans: The scans in both of these (sets of) directories stop short of showing any actual physical contact save touching. In this respect, they're somewhat similar to the scans in Volcano - "close but no cigar". The DUO01 through DUO12 directories are strictly Sapphic, with DUO11 by far being the most tender and tastefully done. DUO12 is a close second in this regard. DUO13 and DUO14 are M/F with DUO14 being the "hotter" of the two - but again, no direct contact other than caressing is visible. Now for the flip side: Those of you whom have read some of my other reviews of adult CDs know that I always have a few captious (some might say nit-picking) remarks to made. I don't mean to be overly critical. I've never attempted to produce a product such as SB and likely never will. I have NO "connections" or obligations to any aspect of the adult entertainment industry, and likely never will. Therefore, I don't have an axe to grind against any real or imagined, present or future competitors. What I am trying to do is to play whatever part I can in raising the standard for such products so that we CUSTOMERS get what we pay for and are entitled to receive for our hard-earned dollars. With that said, let's press on... The most grievous sin that SB commits (remember, one person's opinion only) is that it over uses one particular type of pose. If you have any doubts about the exterior gynecological aspects of the female anatomy, SB will cure that deficit in your education to the point of almost qualifying you to practice OB/GYN. While I didn't actually count the number of scans that are so oriented, I'm confident that they number well into the hundreds. Surely there are other, highly erotic ways to pose nude or partially clothed women. SB does have a number of such "alternate" scans - KATIE_21, ANITA_01, ASHTON_17, BARBIE_01, CONNIE_03, CHANEL_06, DUSTY_01, PAULA_01, LEXI_05, CINDY_01, CRYSTL_04 & _15, PETRA_02 & _04, RANDI_01, SHANEN_02, and YVETTE_01 - to name a few. So the "grievous sin" is one of a lack of variety of poses. I suppose it's expected that such poses belong to the "standard set" - and that's OK by me. I'd just like to see it, or any other pose, prevented from becoming mundane. Another over-worked theme in SB scans is boots. I never saw so may shots of models wearing thigh-high boots. Perhaps this is a fetish of the photographers (or GIoF), but it got tedious for me after a while - especially when I saw boots worn OVER textured hosiery. That's like trying to guild the lily and it never works. One theme that was definitely UNDER utilized has to do with animals. Now before anyone gets their dander up, I'm not talking about sex with animals, just the use of small animals as props. There was exactly one scan, SHANEN_04, in which a small white cat can be seen in the frame. This added a touch of softness and sensitivity to the scan that was most pleasant and welcome. I would recommend to GIoF and all their peer producers to consider adding at least a few scans with similar use of animals. Personally, I think cats, kittens, and rabbits would make excellent props, in the right scene. Others might suggest horses or snakes but I think those creatures would carry a different connotation.

There are several scans that exhibit photographic flaws that are serious enough to detract from one's viewing pleasure. Of such flaws, three types stand out: lighting, focus, and framing. Lighting: While there are a number of alfresco scans, the vast majority are studio shots, or at least made indoors. The studio/indoor shots are the subject here. Several, more than I would have liked to have seen, exhibit "washout" - the result of having the lighting too close to the subject, or of it being too harsh, or poorly positioned. This causes some parts of the subject to be too bright (look washed out) while others are either correctly exposed or are too dark and lose detail. Two examples of this type of error are visible in DAISY_04 and DUO02_07, but there are others. A second lighting problem centers around what are called "catch lights". Catch lights are the reflections of a light source in a subject's eyes. Ideally, there should be exactly one catch light in each eye of the subject (e.g. HOLLY_01). No catch light may make the subject appear to be blind in that eye (e.g. JODEE_01); two or more catch lights tend to make the subject look a bit cross-eyed (e.g. AMBER_01). Several of SB's images fall prey to this "Photography 101" mistake. Focus: It seems evident that most if not all of the original exposures were made with either a 35mm or a roll film camera. There's certainly nothing wrong with this approach, but it can present challenges for maintaining sharpness (depth of field) in certain situations. Some of SB's scans fell victim to these traps. Examples are CINDY_13, JENNA_01, and CHANEL_03 & _04. It usually happens when a subject is framed "in the long dimension", like from the feet shooting towards the head of a person. Without careful attention, only parts of the subject will be rendered in sharp focus. Sometimes this is OK when a particular effect is desired; ususally it's not OK and detracts from the image. Framing: This is potentially the most serious of these three types of technical errors. The human eye/brain can forgive or ignore to some degree lighting or focus errors, but when something's in the scene that shouldn't be there, that's hard to overlook. In SB's case, a few scans are awkward in appearance. For example, if the bottom of a shoe looms ominously in the foreground, or the woman looks as if she were trained as an contortionist and is posed very accordingly and looking quite unnatural, then asthetic appeal suffers. Some examples of these flubs are SHAE_03, ANGEL_14, _15, & _19; CINDY_06, and CRISSY_05. Of special note, to me, in the "unusual framed" category are CINDY_07, CINDY_22, and CRISSY_09. I puzzled more over why the photograph was framed the way it was than paid attention to the image. The horn in CINDY_07 was particularly curious. Perhaps my prior training as a photographer is my own special albatross here, and others wouldn't see the issue. So be it. Moving from the photographic side to the electronic imaging side, some of SB's images showed dark striations in the frame. These are most noticeable in the darker areas of the frame. They do not appear in all scans. I would speculate that these are a by-product of the scanning process, but I don't really know. Examples are ALITA_01, & _03; APRIL_09; and ANGEL_09. There are a couple of other missed cues, but they are really getting to the nit-picking stage: CINDY_25 appears to have a stain on the original transparency; the KATIE_02 transparency was reversed left-to-right during scanning (note clock). The color balance in DEBRA_07, CINDY_25, and CINDY_27 is wrong. While I'm taking the time to call these flaws out, it should be noted that these are pretty trivial errors. I guess it's the perfectionist in me. Bottom line: SB is a winner. If you don't have need for a BBS-able CD, and don't want the XXX stuff (tho' some scans in DUO13 & 14 and TRIO come pretty close), SB will knock your socks off with LARGE images of beautiful women in beautiful poses. (I fell in love, or at least lust, several times!) To use a baseball metaphor, SB is an extra base hit - at least a triple for sure. Correct a few things, add a GUI like SHOWOFF, and you'd have an out-of-the-park home run. Nonetheless, SB raises the ante for adult CDs considerably. It has so much right going for it that its "positives" overwhelm its "negatives". Truly, the main fault that I find with the CD, apparent fixation on one type of pose, others might find to be it's strongest suit - and that's A-OK. This is the CD that Digital Dreams (Ero Tek) and Giffy Gold were trying to be, but failed by a wide margin. If you liked either one of them, plop down your money and get SB.

Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No To all you experts out there, I own a Sound Blaster, (not the PRO but the 1.5 non-stereo) and was wondering if I bought a CD-ROM would installation be smooth or would there be some problems with finding drivers or some other compatibility problems. I have been told that it would be better if I sold my SBlaster and bought a multi-media kit. I'd rather not do that if I can use my own SBlaster. Thanks for any advice!!!

Hi Tiger; Thanks for the reply. Your explanation sounds right on - the music stops exactly as the upload manager in telix is reading the drives. Now, the next question is can you or anyone suggest a solution? I just went through the entire telix configuration looking for something that might solve this and saw nada. The default upload directory is set to C:\DL while the CD is drive E so it must be something more than that. If you can't think of anything maybe I'll post this in the telix conf.

This is quite a busy conference. The mail is extraordinary. I don't see how it could all be read even daily in a practical means. I must assume that whoever reads this has found it by its subject and are therefore interested in Al-Qadim. The only way one could weed their way through all this is by following a string and I decided to start an Al-Qadim string. Now that one has been started, I have been a DM for 13 years, and have maqnage a Play By E-Mail campaign before, and I am willing to start another one here if at least four people show a willingness to participate as PCs. The particular adventure I would run would resemble Sinbad of the Seven Seas. As a side note, if anyone wishes to consult the experience of a player from way back - I am 33, married with a son, and part of a group of players who each have as many years as I in the world's greatest game.

This has the effect of lowering the number of UNIQUE image files to 766. Personally, I didn't find this all that significant because the Targa files serve to give the user an accurate comparison of 256 colors vs. so-called "true color". Unlike the Targa files on Pork-Ware 1 which showed little difference with 256-color conversions of the same file, SB's 24-bit files are noticeably better than their corresponding 256-color twins. This may be because the GIF files lack something, but I think a better explanation is that the 24-bit files have something extra. In any event, I wanted to set the record straight. If you like to fool with 24-bit color, copy one of the Targa files to you rHDD and have at it - just don't violate the GIoF copyright by sending it somewhere else. Ciao!

Ron. We have shipped hundreds of adult cd's to Canada and never had a problem with customes. In fact, we just shipped a major order to Ontario and the customer received it with ease and NO CUSTOM FEE's. I guess it's all in the way you ship your products and or handle the matterial. On another note, customes will ship the package back if it is so stated on the package. Even if it is not allowed to enter the country, it will be returned to the shipper at his/her expense. This again is only true if the shipper has stated this on the package. Just a few cents worth...... Boris Osadciw ... Silver Xpress!......

Geee... I guess that it means: 1) Females are physically or mentally unable to open the CD case? 2) Wives are obviously computer-phobes and wouldn't think to get a directory listing to see what's on the disk? 3) The lady of the house would only be incensed by such adult material, and therefore must be "protected" from it by having hubby hide the evidence? 4) Nobody but males read the CDROM ads and would ever realize that such trickery occurs... Maybe one of these days someone will come out with a good CD full of adult material for us ladies. And hopefully it'll be husband-proof. I'd hate for hubby to realize that I'm enjoying such things! ;-) Just to keep this on track as a "For Sale" message... Does anyone know of an adult CD which is slanted toward females?

Yes, I happen to have one called 'GBL .GIF Files of Alternative Lifestyles Volume I' (which is a title I am not too happy with as 'lifestyle' has become a political buzzword on your side of the pond). It is distributed by PC Info Systems, P.O. Box 23591, Columbus,OHIO 43223 and has a 'cover price' of US$ 199.00, -though I bought it over here, in the Netherlands, for Hfl. 129,- (ca. US$ 75.00) including S&H and 17.5% Sales Tax. I still must send in the enclosed Registration Card to the Warranty Registration Center at the same P.O. Box, now at OH. 43223-0591. Let's hope Ole Man River or one of its tributaries have not flooded them in the meantime. The contents are: \BBS_LIST 1 Files 25,011 Bytes Not that useful to me, and a bit dated anyway.. \BI_MEN 259 Files 53,761,458 Bytes \BI_WOMEN 303 Files 63,062,393 Bytes Don't see much difference between the categories.

Some good, nevertheless. Blowing them up even may give a decent Windows SVGA Wallpaper. Many, however, rather poor. A number are duplicates of GAY_1 and GAY_2. The 'MAC' things are in black and white, some Tom of Finland and similar drawings and cartoons, a lot of rather primitive scans e.g. from Play Girl. \GAY_TEXT 155 Files 3,256,828 Bytes Lots of short stories, many of them very readable, and one or two novellas, consisting of some twenty separate files. Almost every variation you can dream of seems covered, including bondage etc. \LEZ_1 193 Files 38,047,887 Bytes \LEZ_2 125 Files 44,724,213 Bytes Bein' a GWM, I have not looked through them very carefully.. \MEN_1 65 Files 9,810,595 Bytes Lots of mostly All-American Male Beauty, well photographed for the most part. \TRANS 19 Files 2,625,650 Bytes This isn't my taste either. \VIEWERS 15 Files 1,177,050 Bytes \VPIC 48 Files 257,960 Bytes \WOMEN_1 282 Files 55,364,984 Bytes Total Files ->2,494 Total Bytes ->346,801,940 As this is Volume I, maybe there will be, or already is, a Volume II or even III.

Your best value would be the DMR600, which is priced at $799. If you don't have a SCSI based system, then you will need to get a SCSI controller and the proper device drivers, which would run about $75. You will also need a shielded cable ( since this is an external unit ), which would cost another $25. This would give you everything you need to get the system online, which would be $899. plus shipping. The only thing you would need after that would be CD's, which we also carry at resonable prices as well. >> I would also be intrested in any used units if they are >> available...

The Pioneer is the only unit I could recommend at this point as it has been a proven work horse on hundreds of BBS's all over the country. As for a used unit, more often then not, many sysop's want to sell their old unit for almost the same price as what we ask for a new one.

Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No I have an older Toshiba Model XM-3100B CD drive. While the specs show that it is fast enough for Multi-media service, that is it has a access time of 350 ms and throughput of 150 kbs, it lacks XA. Does anyone know if these drives can be up-graded simply. Perhaps by just changing out the ROM? Called the Toshiba people listed in my local phonebook, but they only know about TV sets etc. nothing about CD's. Also one other minor point. In the last few weeks, the drive busy light has been staying on after I load a disk. Most times I just reload, then it winks for a few seconds and goes out. It has been getting worse tho. Now about every third time I change disks the darn busy light stays on! Is this caused by a dirty lens? (Read somewhere that that is one of the symptoms of a dirty lens.) I've never used one of those disks to clean the lens...do they work, or just a waste of time? How about trade-in. Anyone out there willing to take this guy in trade for a later model with XA capability? Also might as well upgrade my sound board to a Pro-Audio 16. How much on a package deal for board, cables etc. Internal would be fine. Thanks for your help. ...

The few times I was able to get a "ring", I got dumped into a voice mail system that I can only describe as a NIGHTMARE. No matter what button I pressed, there was no way to get the information I wanted or to reach a human being - the system would just hang up on me. Needless to say, I was thoroughly disgusted. I was finally able to reach a human by calling 1-800-888-7808, through some cosmic miracle of chance. While we're on the topic of DAK "support", I'd like to complain a little bit about the ROBOTS that man the 1-800-DAK-0800 credit card ordering line. In addition to knowning NOTHING about the products, they are unable to grant even the simplest of requests, such as giving delivering instructions to UPS. You know, where they tell UPS to get a signature instead of just dropping the package on the porch. I was told "we don't have anywhere on the screen to put delivery instructions." We ordered DAK's BSR stereo amplified 8Watt 2-way magnetically shielded computer speaker system. If I could have found another supplier for those, I would have purchased them elsewhere. I hate to say this because I am a long time fan of DAK, and congratulate Mr. Kaplan on his CD-ROM marketing push.

At least with UPS or BO>>> Fedex you have automatic insurance coverage. 8) BO>This is true, but we place insurance on all pakages no matter how small BO>the amount is. It still cost less and shipping is still faster than BO>UPS ground. Huh? One pound by UPS WITH $100 insurance coverage ranges from $2.28 to $2.97, depending on zone. One pound via Priority Mail is $3.65 with $50 insurance coverage (for which you have to stand in line at the Post Office). As for delivery times, we're finding that Priority Mail is taking 2-3 days, where UPS ground is 1-3 days for most of the Western U.S. from Washington state. Sure, Priority Mail has a delivery time advantage for the rest of the country, but it IS more expensive when comparing equally weighted and insured packages, and it actually is SLOWER in some scenarios, like shipments to Oregon, Idaho, Washington, Montana, etc., which are overnight by UPS ground, but take 2 days by Priority Mail. No thanks - I'll gladly give UPS my business. 1) Insurance is automatic and paperless with no standing in line. 2) They pick up right at my door every afternoon (twice). 3) Less expensive. 4) Quicker or equal delivery time to most of Western U.S. 5) Package tracing in case of a snafu. Especially that last one! Even with insurance, it's taken me over a month to get a settlement through the Post Office for a lost package, where UPS has settled with me in less than a week in both the two instances (over 6 years) where they lost something. Maybe I'm missing something, but when given a choice between the two, I always stick with UPS. Later, .\\ike --- * SLMR 2.1a * Perot of Borg: Resistance?

At ONE BBSCON you stated that you were no longer selling BB and the others and that you would come out with some new ones. Unfortunately I was at one of the BBS for profit for sessions and had to buy the tape on Dealing with Adult Gifs. Of course, I heard that you had dropped it and also I live in one of the cities on your list. I picked up Busty Babes from the Chicago something or other CD booth. He said that he bought them directly from you and I was curious, why you would have him sell them at ONE BBSCON if you were in fact dropping them and recommending that they not me placed on BBS'. I mean it goes without saying that 95% of the people their were sysops. I ask him about this at the time of purchase (before I heard the tape) because their were some rumors floating around the convention regarding this. Something to sit on the shelf or sell though. Maybe I could put up the ones that don't have an penetration shots and such???

FYI, I couldn't get it to work with the right colors on my screen. (I have a VGA monitor with a Paradise 16 card - WD chip). I called the 800 number for help, and Dan Graboi was very helpful, but said I needed SVGA card to really see the colors. The idea of having multiple miniature images on the screen is nice, but if one can't see them, not too good. Also, I don't run a mouse unless needed, and don't load the driver for it. When I tried to install the SHOWOFF, it blipped me and said mouse was required, which of course it was. I believe the instructions should state that SVGA is required if it is, and that a mouse is required. Not everyone has those yet. Or, is there a workaround? Yes, I tried the SOCD16 startuup and got a black screen that had the menu at the bottom, and I had to warm boot to get out since I couldn't see the areas to click on. I resorted to the old familiar Cshow and CDMENU, and reviewed most of the directories. Fun CD. ...

The reason why I guess this is because the CD line has two wires switched, and they have to be reversed for them to work. There is three ways to do this -- 1. To buy the adapter for it. 2. Splice the line and switch the wires. 3. You will note a tab on the CD line, if you shave this flush you will be able to flip the connector over, and I have heard (have not tried it) that this will work. I just hooked the line to the controller card, and selected the SBpro on the game menu, and it uses the bus instead of the CD line to transfer the sound...

I bought a new Mitsumi internal CD-Rom and installed it in my 386/40mhz IBM clone. I have a SBPro sound board installed and am using the controler board that came with the Mitsumi to run the CD-Rom drive. O.K. this is where it gets strange. After installing the drive it worked great. Then all of a sudden it just quit working, when I would go to access the drive the busy light will light up but nothing happens. At that point I have to boot the system. I can remove the controller and reinstall it and it will start working again. The drive will allow me to use it a couple of times, then sooner or later when I access the drive the busy will light up and just stay lit. The only way I can get the drive to turn lose of the CPU is to boot it. If anyone has any ideas on this one please respond. Thanks, Donnie Raynor ...

Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No MS> ......................... MS> numbers and volume numbers? And also, is Vol 1 Release 1 REALLY worth MS> $400???????? Inquiring minds want to know. 8) Mike, this is a case of economical supply and demand. Supply is somewhat limited, yet portrayed to be VERY LIMITED. Disk for legal, ethical, sexual reasons is portrayed as something forbidden, desirable ==> high demand. Someone with lots of money panics and bids the disk higher than "true" value. Now everyone who owns one thinks that their BB1 is now worth some large number of $$$$. Notice the number of people who own it and are now trying to sell increasing the SUPPLY. Only a _few_ people with lots of money on the international echo will pay something resembling that price. However, your internationally unknown seller of BB1 will probably get somewhere between $50 - $100.

There is a Brittanica Family disc (largely games), and there is also the Compton's Encyclopedia (which is also called -- erroneously -- the Brittanica encyclopedia by many people because Compton's was/is owned by the Brittanica. Compton's NewMedia, which produced the Compton's Encyclopedia discs, was recently sold -- to Time/Warner I believe. The Compton's Encyclopedia is NOT the Brittanica, not by a long- shot. I recommend it for people with fairly young children in the family. It is very good, but aimed at public school level. You may well have seen it for $100, in fact that is close to the Compton's upgrade offer. I'd be interested in hearing if you come across a true Brittanica for anything less than $1,0000 (including books).

If it was 100% accurate, -> none of us could afford it! Tim, this discussion so far has been to the accuracy and timeliess of their data. My complaint with Prophone is that their search engine sucks!!! It will find towns by zip code that it will not find by name. Even when I make sure that the name is spelled correctly. Frequently I have to go back and research a town because I get no listings found. Almost every time I get listings by the zip codes of the town. One nice thing we've found is that you can search by multiple SIC codes by listing them in order with a piping symbol between (|). When I talked to the publisher on the phone they told me there was no way to do a multiple SIC search. Anyway with the fact that their data is out of date and incomplete and the fact that their search engine is defective I question the usefullness of the program.

We got on this subject because you made a generally inaccurate statement that shipping through the U.S. Postal Service was "cheaper" than U.P.S., all things being equal. I simply stated my opinion that not only was U.P.S. less expensive for us, but more convenient due to the automatic, paperless insurance, daily pickup, traceable deliveries, etc. If you prefer Uncle Sam, I have no problem with that, but since this IS an echo dealing with the mailorder buying and selling of CD-ROM related products, I feel that discussions about preferred shipping methods and companies is very relevant. If I'm wrong here, Tim can correct me, but with the vast number of people who read this echo primarily for the purposes of ordering CD's and hardware, I would think that any pro/con discussion over the shipping services we all depend on to receive said merchandise would be not only relevant, but possibly of some value to the readers.

The person I sent it to called me and UPS refused to send a driver to pick up his money!But they did say they would refund the money I paid to send it COD!

But then again... 1)I have mailed Christmas cards to my sister-in-law,who lives 5 miles away and she never recieved them. 2) and I am still waiting for the manuals,Colin Kreebel,mailed to me 1 1/2 months ago from Florida,to an AE HD floppy drive!

Title and... BJ>I'm *not* a dealer, but if you could define what you mean by "...slanted BJ>towards females..." maybe I (and others) could suggest a few. Hmmm... I guess that would probably be varied by individual (female) preference. Actually, I enjoy the ones I've seen, but might put less emphasis on male climax (all over the place ). It would be nice to have more shots of male *bodies*, and not just certain body parts. Gee... how specific can one get in a non-age-restricted conference when describing such things? :-> Interaction, penetration, etc. are good, but I'm not all that choked up about "oddities" and pics of kinky stuff. Smallish BBS ads are ok, but the ones that take up half the screen are a bummer. And the long intro BBS ads in movie files are a real hassle (don't like to wait through them, and feel cheated that so much of the disk is taken up by something I have to watch over and over!). Even worse are loud, attention-getting noises in movie files. Would rather have fewer high-quality items on the disk than umpteen million bits of junk with A Few Good Men thrown in. Mixtures of still pics and movies are good since hubby likes the stills and I enjoy the motion. Menu interface is nice, IF it works properly (I had lots of trouble with CDMENU on Ecstacy Hot Pics, even when I put the files on hard drive instead of CD - lots of GIFs that wouldn't show, and memory errors viewing movie files). So.... Any recommendations for what's available currently, based on the above? Prices? Dealers? If you care to discuss/review certain disks, I guess that we could take the discussion to a (non-sale) CDROM conference.

Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Despite the controversy, music stores are selling used audio CDs for $7-$8 apiece. The only problem there seems to be with books are paperbacks with covers torn off. Dealers return covers to distributors for $$$$ credit. A book, or magazine, sold without its cover is considered "stolen property". See the warning on the back of the title page of any current paperback. Unsold hardcover books are returned and may end up remaindered on those tables in the middle of bookstore aisles. Some have suggested that paperbacks and magazines of some form of disk will mean returned merchandise. Half the copies of your non-bigname magazine end up in the dealer's trash. --- * Origin: Greetings from Lower Albany BBS - Albany, NY (1:267/140) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ERIC BRAVICK Number: 4546 To: BILL ALEXANDER Date: 09/07/93 2:13p Subj: Re: CDRoms for sale Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No >> EB> Simtel MSDOS May 1993 $15.00 630+ Megs MSDOS >> EB> Aminet June 1993 $15.00 Hundreds of megs of Amiga >> Send me these two items for $40 total ($15 apiece + $5 S&H and $5 COD) to: >> >> Bill Alexander >> 509 Pine Ridge Ln. >> Aubrey,TX 76227 Bill, they are on their way.

The curiosity is getting the best of us, and my wife is bugging me to see the video on how this game was made, so I am ready to spend a few dollars for a copy of the thing, but only the one WITH the video. So far I have seen Mike Shannon offering new copies of this CD *WITHOUT* video for $39 in this echo, but have seen very little else advertised here lately that doesn't say simply "7th Guest". The ideal situation would be to find someone with a used copy of both the game and the video who is finished with it and no longer wants them. Next choice would be to find out what the "with video" version can be had for NEW through this echo. My ideal price for a used copy is $35. Whatcha got?

Absolutely agreed. Now WHERE is my order? I placed an order with Boris (crash mail), Doug (on the BBS) and you (NetMail). So far Boris's order has arrived, albiet slightly damaged but we're working on that, but nothing from you or Doug! Sideline: I wouldn't personally trust UPS with ANYTHING! Bad experiences but, as you say, whatever turns you on. My problem is that I live DEEP in the countryside and they don't like to come out here as it's very expensive for them (100Kms round trip). What they try to do is simply put the package in the SnailMail once it arrives in the country or ask me to collect it from their office. Now THAT's service?

WE market it, and chose it because it was one of the better "values" we could find for the price-point. There is 7 discs in all. One is dedicated to Business Listings (7 million +). The other 6 are the residential "plus" the business listings, broken out into 6 geographical areas. The positive side is: the price, the download-ability, and the "sort-ability". The negative side is: it's not as up-to-date as it's $6700 competitor from ABS. My guess is that it is about 6-12 months back in accuracy. For our business needs, that's close enough. It's not the solution for all businesses; but I think it meets the needs for the majority of them. Especially for the price.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks..Frank I personally think they are all pretty much the same...but then I look at pornography differently from others: "You see one you see them all". But then, I apply that phrase only to X to XXX-rated pictures...I never like them. I love G to R-rated pictures better. I look at photography rather than pornography. I can tell you what NOT to buy...there are 2 Swimsuit disks I know of that are ripoffs and 1 R/X-rated CD that don't worth poo-poo (another word for the 4-lettered word starting with "S"). The 2 ripoff disks are "Lovely Ladies 2" and "Women of Venus". The 1 XXX-rated CD that doesn't worth hoot is "Digital Dreams". Why they suck??? Well, first of all, the 2 swimsuit disks contain duplicate files. They are the same pictures but different resolutions. LL2 contains 94 2.35 megs each 24-bit 1024x768x16m BMPs (VPIC refused to work), 400 1024x768x256 BMPs, and 400 640x480x256 BMPs of the same crap. WOV contains 96 megs of useless Macintosh music files, 425 of 24- bit 640x480x16m TIFs, 425 of 640x480x256 GIFs, and 425 of 320x200x256 GIFs of the same junk. WOV is even worst because the pictures are extremely badly touched up (if they did touched up). Dark color covers most of the pictures....and unbelievably you can see veins or blood vessels covering their bodies. I am sure ALL picture viewing program from ALL under-developed, low technology countries, allows you to view 1024x768 down to 640x480 and quite a few picture viewers are able to cramp and view a full 1024x768 picture into a 640x480 screen. The 1 R/X-rated Digital Dream I know of that sucks pretty bad because it contains all 1024x768x256 GIFs but the worst of any kind picture quality. Dark and lines-invested pictures on all pictures. And most of the pictures are probably 640x480 but re-edited and cramped into a little picture making it 1024x768. Well, they claim this disk is a brand new release. MAYBE. Brand new but old scans using 1940's scanners. * 1 more worth mentioning but minor problem....Erotic Encounters Volume 1. It contains mostly XXX-rated pictures and over 250 corrupted, unreadable GIFs. Anyways, in my list of CDs, seems like the 7-disk Seedy ROM collection, the 3-disk PC-PIX series, and the 4-disk (5?? actually because the 1st disk is illegal on most states and definitely illegal anywhere in Canada) Hot PIX series are worth the price. I like them because they contain alot of those series of DS-F (DataShack), NLR/NLG (Nitelog Imaging), LADYR/LDYR (Garlique), PICR/PICG (Prizm), and a whole lot more R-rated Playboy Magazine type of pretty babes. But then, they also contains quite of bit of those lousy Garby's Lounge, NightHawk, and Laura's Lair amateur XXX-rated photos and alot of other BBSes' XXX-rated pics. * * 1st 1.11 #1060s * --- FidoPCB v1.4 [ff053/x] * Origin: CRS Online, Toronto, Ontario (1:229/15) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BRIAN BOURNE Number: 4762 To: ALL Date: 09/16/93 11:02p Subj: CD-ROM for Sale Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No I have "The San Diego Zoo Presents: The Animals" (The Windows Version).

FG> SVGA or VGA graphics, 256 colors, hetero, sex and nudity (don't they FG> go together), yes I am MPC compatible. Oooops! Forgot to ask whether you're a sysop or an end-user. It's not a BIG deal - but each has some unique considerations. If you're a sysop, i.e. you're looking for a CD to add to your board PRIMARILY so your users can download GIFs, you'll want a CD whose files aren't likely to be encumbered by copyright. Not much attention was paid to this in the past but it's rapidly becomming a REAL issue for sysops. Also, you'll be looking for CDs which include text file(s) that provide descriptions of the GIFs. Experienced sysops may have additional advice for you. To avoid the copyright entanglement, you MUST stay with some of the newer releases - i.e. 1993 pressings (tho' that in itself is no guarantee). Safest bet it to check with the PRODUCER (not distributor or dealer) to see if BBS usage is OK. To get the descriptive files, the CD will need to be "BBS Ready" tho' this doesn't have a standardized interpretation so you may have to do some tweaking to get said files like you want/need them for your particular system. If you're and end-user, apart from finding material to your liking - a very personal choice - you might prefer a CD with a good "front end" - i.e. a full-featured viewer/manipulator with some navigation capabilities. For example, some of the more recent offerings have integrated "point-and-click" catalogs where you can select an image for viewing from a screen of miniaturized GIFs. Since you said SVGA/256 color, you'll not be interested in 24-bit color TIF of TGA files. These are beginning to show up in increasing numbers of some of the more current releases so one would assume that their popularity is on the rise. Accordingly, you can ignore this aspect of candidate CDs (unless/until you upgrade your video configuration). You also didn't mention animation files (GL/DL/FLI, etc.) nor the so-called "interactive" CDs - tho' you did say you're MPC compatible indicating perhaps some interest. Not being an aficionado of such files/CDs myself, I'll leave this for someone else to fill in for you. Bottom line: If this is your first adult CD, give "Busty Babes Volume 1, Release 3" a try. It's GIFs are a bit dated, but it covers ALL of the above bases - sysop and end-user alike. It can be had from dealers in this echo for about $25-$30. It has a wide range of subject matter and the BEST user font-end going (IMHO). Also, watch this echo for upcoming new releases as some producers hang out here as well. Other readers may have their own recommendations for you as well. Hope this helps. Cheers!

Mike is one of those "special" dealers who believe that CUSTOMERS come first. He proves this day in and day out in many ways - by allowing us CUSTOMERS to get a look at CDs before purchasing them; by allowing returns for unsatisfactory merchandise; and by being an active participant in this echo. Thanks again, Mike! This review is broken up into several posts and contains three major sections: Statistics - the quantitative, measurable characteristics of the CD; Operations - a more qualitative analysis of the "usability" aspects of the CD which tries to consider factors of interest to both the sysop and the end-user; and Visual - a purely qualitative opinion of the intrinsic qualities of the images themselves. Note that section boundaries are not inviolate. To those of you whom have read some of my previous reviews of adult CDs, you will be familiar territory with this one as well. If you're a "new" reader, let me iterate: What follows is ONE PERSON'S OPINION. I have a few general comments I'd like to make about STAREware (SW) and not feeling that any other place is more appropriate, I'll make them here. First, there is no identified producer of SW on the jewel box inserts or the CD itself. No names, no addresses - nothing that would tell you where this CD came from. Some of the more current releases (e.g. from Florida Lion's Den) come with full identification and even warranty/registration cards. This probably isn't very important in the overall scheme of things, but when *I* make something I'm proud of, I put my name all over it. I can't help but wonder if there's a correlation here. Secondly, the jewel inserts are pretty primitive and more cartoon-like than one would expect for a CD of this type. While the front insert is mildly amusing, it doesn't compare to the inserts for Southern Beauties, for example. What I liked the least was that the edges of the back insert are blank. When the cases of such CDs are stored edgewise, there's no clue which CD is which. This makes it more difficult to pick them out of a stack. Statistics ========== Examination of SW revealed 2441 GIFs and 14 TGA files. The GIF files are of various resolutions, but mostly 640x480, with the exception of the HIRES directory where the 800x600 and up GIF and TGA files reside (all 142 of them). The GIFs average 176,659 bytes in size - somewhat large for 640x480 resolution but explained by the fact that the many of the files are full-screen in size. The GIF files in HIRES average 327,022 bytes each; the TGA files about 580,923 bytes each. The TGA numbers are low because they're 15-bit color, not 24-bit color. I found only three pairs of duplicated files on the CD. A VERY low number. However, when compared to my GIF name data base, there were 1647 "hits". The hit distribution was as follows: Seedy 6-Pak 1012 7th Heaven 3 BB/R1 123 BB/R3 130 Ecstasy 111 FAO-2 313 FAO-3 339 FAO-Gold 167 PCPIX-1 656 PCPIX-2 18 PCPIX-3 1 Visual Fan. 143 Pork-1 126 Storm-3 157 Of the 794 non-hit names, 660 were found to have the dash character "-" in the file name. Notwithstanding the fact that the ISO 9660 standard isn't supposed to permit this character (so I'm told), there it was! When these "-" were changed to the underline character "_" and the file names re-checked, an additional 473 hits were recorded. Of the remaining non-hit files, visual examination (admittedly an "iffy" process) resulted in only about 85 files being identified as "new" - i.e. not appearing in any of the comparison CDs. Bottom line: SW's GIF files are pretty much the same collection that can found on most any of its contemporaries. In addition to the GIFs and the TGA files, there are small collections of animated GL, DL, and FLI files as well. The GL/DL files number about 75-80 while there are 16 FLI files. More on these in the Operations and Visual sections. Operations to follow... ...

The directories are named respectively R01-R04 and X01-X11. Files within each rating are divided alphabetically across the directories. Additionally, there's the HIRES directory with a mixture of subject matter. To say that there are file description listings on SW is a bit of an understatement. There are three sets of descriptions in each of the directories: FILES.BBS, FILES.LIS, and DESC.CD. FILES.BBS is the "expanded" type of listing in that file sizes and dates are included as follows: Item Starts in col ---- ------------- File Name 1 File Size 15 Date Stamp 24 Description 34 The FILES.LIS (identical with the DESC.CD files) adheres to the original "FILES.BBS" format of a file name beginning in column 1 and a description that starts in column 14. Additionally, there's a directory named FILELIST where a collection of files with names corresponding to the directories resides. These files also have the "expanded" format file lists in them. But hold on - we're not done yet! There is also a file in the root directory called STARE.TXT which contains descriptions for all the files on the CD in the "expanded" format, but divided up by textual "header" lines that precede each directories descriptions. More importantly than file descriptions, in one of the "help" files (more on these later), there is the statement: "Collected from a variety of sources, these GIF pictures are believed to be uncopyrighted and public domain. They were chosen as the best from the thousands we reviewed...all fun & no work!" That statement notwithstanding, several images had names that suggested otherwise (e.g. PCAL0690 - Playboy calendar June 1990). Others clearly carried embedded text from sources (e.g. Event Horizons) known to copyright their material. Bottom line for sysops: Caveat emptor! Operations - End User ===================== Outside of a small advisory concerning DL files on the inside from cover, there's no installation instructions for the CD. A totally naive user would be lost about where to begin. Even the XMENU program (see below) doesn't offer any clues until you try to run it the first time. A little more attention to these aspects would have been helpful and appreciated. Nonetheless, SW contains several features that end users will appreciate. To begin, in the root directory are three programs called, respectively, XHELP.EXE, XPRINT.EXE, and XMENU.EXE. Each is a standalone program that can be run from the CD itself, certain conditions having been met. XHELP provides additional information about the CD, the files on it (e.g. the quoted remark above), etc. It has a menu of 6-7 items, all of which can be viewed/read in a few minutes. XPRINT has the ability to print out any of several files, notably the FILES.BBS files. Selections are likewise from a menu. A printer is required as there is no provision to indicate an alternate destination. XMENU is potentially the most useful as it provides for file selection from a DIR-like listing. A copy of the required VPIC viewer is included on the CD but it must be copied to a HDD directory in the DOS path, and it must be pre-configured for your video setup. Those conditions being satisfied, XMENU will let you navigate the CD's directories and choose images or animations for viewing. There are, however, some limitations. First, XMENU demands VPIC - it doesn't work with any other viewer. I suppose you could try to fake XMENU out by installing another viewer and naming it "VPIC.EXE" - I didn't try that. Secondly, XMENU seems to lock VPIC in 640x480 mode. I have VPIC version 6.0g and it works quite well with my S3 board up through 1024x768x256 and 640x480x16M modes. I couldn't find any provision for accessing the higher resolution modes through XMENU. Viewing aside, XMENU is Spartan in its offerings. It can copy a selected file to the HDD, and pressing the spacebar at the menu will call up the highlighted file's description at the top of the screen, but that's about it. There's no image manipulation, no slide show, AND all functions are keyboard only - no mouse support. XMENU will also run the GL and the FLI files for you from the CD. DL files must be copied to the HDD before they can be viewed. (This advisory is on the inside front cover of the jewel case and was spoken about earlier.) It's worth noting that all the DL & GL files on SW are repeated THREE times. The DL and GL files are in the DLFILES, DLPLAY and GLFILES, GLPLAY directories, respectively. In the ??FILES directories, each animation appears in both ZIP format and a self-extracting EXE format. In the ??PLAY directories, the files are in an uncompressed state, ready to use. (Note: the few FLI files are in with the GL files.) Surely only one of each file (of ANY type) would have been sufficient. Go figure. Bottom line for end users: XMENU is better than nothing, but just barely. In a world of SHOWOFF and GIFReed, it's an anachronism. Visual to follow... ...

While the images are, as previously stated, generally large (e.g. many are full-screen in size), they're also replete with BBS ads, etc. Don't get me wrong; SW isn't a "bad" CD, it just doesn't have anything new or different to offer. Its images are the same (literally) as everyone else's and its user front end is all but nonexistent. If you don't have any other CD, there are better ones to start with - like Busty Babes with the SHOWOFF front end. BB's images may be a bit tired, too, but SHOWOFF is state-of-the-art! As for the animated files, the news is the same. There doesn't seem to be much interest in the industry to make newer files of these types. Perhaps the full-blown "interactive" CDs have made them obsolete. Whatever the reason, if you're looking for some fresh DL/GL/FLI titles, you won't find them here. A couple of additonal notes on the animated front: First, the GL file OBSESSED is in its own directory and plays flawlessly from the CD. While this may seem a small thing, the other copies of OBSESSED that are in the GL directories don't. OBSESSED isn't a new animation, but it's one of the more interesting ones, artfully mixing text and stills into a complete story - not just a bunch of endlessly repeated images. Secondly, there is a directory named CINDY wherein an animation resides that REQUIRES SoundBlaster support. I don't have that on my system so I couldn't test it out. The TGA files are 15-bit color and, while they don't duplicate any of the GIF images, they aren't anything special either. In fact, at least a few of them are recognizable as old GIF files that have been converted to Targa format. Bottom line: SW belongs in the class with PorkWare II and that ilk. Unless your a adult-GIF history buff and want to add to your collection (as some have suggested might be wise given the attention to copyrights of late), take a PASS (yes, I spelled it right) on this one. ...

I bought a Mitsumi LU005 from you in December '92. It has been acting up for about a month now, and I'm unable to get relief from either Mitsumi tech support or from your Groupware part-time tech support person. After running for awhile, the drive will begin having problems with disk access, whirring repeatedly, and finally giving me the following error messages (at various times): CDR101: Not ready reading drive E Abort, Retry, Fail File read/write error - Drive may be open or disk unformatted CDR103: CDROM not High Sierra or ISO-9660 format reading drive E Abort, Retry, Fail In all cases, it had been working fine with the inserted disk for awhile, but then crashes. After failing, the drive will refuse to read any other disks (software or audio) for awhile, then seems to straighten itself back out after the system is rebooted a few times with no disk in the drive. Please note that I HAVE tested for conflicts by booting the system with clean boot-up files and no TSRs, but the problem persists. The two disks which seem to have given it the most headache are adult shareware disks: Smutware, and Ecstasy Hot Pics. I suspect that these are causing problems because they have a higher density of files than other disks which I've had no problem with (misc Toolworks things, Cinemania, Graphics Works, Time Almanac). Several people have indicated that the Mitsumi seems to have problems with such disks at times if it's not functioning quite right. I downloaded the latest Mitsumi drivers from CompuServe and contacted the Mitsumi tech support department. They had me make a couple of changes to my CONFIG.SYS driver line, but with no change in the problem. After that, they indicated that it must be a problem with the disk or drive. I've tried the disk in another (non-Mitsumi) drive and had no problem. They suggested that I contact the vendor where I purchased the drive (ie: you). I've tried SEVERAL times to resolve this with your tech support department. The first time, he indicated that there was nothing he could do unless I sent my system to your location so they could test the drive in it. Right. Like I'm going to package up an otherwise functional, loaded tower system and expect it to be functional when it returns... Thinking it might be the disk, I returned the first one in exchange for the second. When I called your tech person again, he indicated (rightly so) that he couldn't do anything unless I had a disk which could recreate the error. So I waited until receiving the second disk. When it caused problems too, I tried calling back, only to be told that the tech person wasn't in and that they'd have him call me. No call. I called back several days later and was told that he only works part-time in the evening. I called again yesterday (Saturday) and was told that he was *supposed* to be in, but wasn't, and they expected him any time now. Left name and number again for him to call. As of this evening, I have heard nothing back. Since this drive is still under warranty, I want to have it fixed or replaced as soon as possible so that I can adequately test the repaired or replaced drive before my warranty expires. I am unable to get this taken care of over the phone, so I will leave a message for you here, and will forward a copy via USPS and/or FAX to the Groupware office.

This review is broken up into several posts and contains four major sections: General - Miscellaneous comments that didn't seem to belong in any other section; Statistics - the quantitative, measurable characteristics of the CD; Operations - a more qualitative analysis of the "usability" aspects of the CD which tries to consider factors of interest to both the sysop and the end-user; and Visual - a purely qualitative opinion of the intrinsic qualities of the images themselves. Note that section boundaries are not inviolate. To those of you who have read some of my previous reviews of adult CDs, you will be familiar territory with this one as well. If you're a "new" reader, let me iterate: I am NOT an expert (whatever that is) on adult (or any other kind of) CDs. Accordingly, what follows is ONE PERSON'S OPINION. General ======= The front jewel case insert of the review issue Erotic Encounters 2 (EE2) is bears a picture of a very lovely lady in lingerie and a Mardi Gras-style mask. Besides the title, this cover also has a ridiculous price printed on it plus the curious phrase "Banned in the USA". How can that possibly be true? I certainly didn't get this copy from the underground or black market! Looks and sounds like just so much more "Madison Avenue" hype to me. There is also an anonymous warranty registration card pre-addressed to Clayton, CA (another curiosity) promising a $20 gift certificate (for what isn't stated) if the registration is returned. Most unusual, a second card is included to be redeemed for a FREE CD-ROM from another anonymous address, this time in Columbus, OH. The free CD-ROM ($2 for shipping) is identified as "PC Paramedic(tm) Diagnostic CD-ROM" (sic) supposedly a $79.95 value. Some brief text is included regaling its capabilities. Another $15 is solicited for a "CD-ROM Surprise grab bag" - returnable if not completely satisfied. The back jewel case insert has several proclamations of its own. There is a bold warning to the effect that the pictures contained on the CD are sexually explicit and shouldn't be viewed by those offended by such material. There is a one-line "installation instruction" which proved mostly accurate. There is a statement of requirements - PC compatible and a 512K VGA video. There is an identification of the CD's producers as Peek-A-Boo Entertainment in Chicago, IL - which is why I called the other addresses "curious". In other CD's, notably those from Florida Lion's Den and Graphical Images of Florida, all included correspondence is pre-addressed to them, not some third-party go-between. Personally, I LIKE knowing whom I'm doing business with. Most questionable is the statement: "This is not your average adult CD-ROM disk!" As we shall see in the Statistics section, this statement is open to interpretation. Finally, the producers DID put titles on the edges of the back insert so that identification of the CD in a stack or while the jewel case is stored on its edge is possible. Thank you Peek-A-Boo. Statistics to follow... ...

The requirements previously mentioned as stated on the back cover are generally adequate as MOST of the GIFs are 640x480x256 (or thereabouts). However, there are a number of 800x600 resolution GIFs and even 63 (by actual count) 1024x768 GIFs. A 512K video board won't handle the latter ones without "panning" (see Operations). The GIFs average 152,890 bytes each - a healthy size for a 640x480 GIF. I found NO duplicated files through examination of either file names or file sizes. That doesn't guarantee there aren't any, just that my processes didn't detect any. It's worth saying that several GIFs with names other than what I was accustomed to associating them with were found on EE2. That is, there's been some re-naming along the way somewhere by somebody. Comparison of EE2's file names to the ones in my GIF name data base was, shall we say, revealing. For the first time, I got a 100% hit count! That is to say, there was NOT ONE SINGLE FILE NAME on EE2 that wasn't already represented by one or more other CDs in the data base. Sort of calls into question the producers' statement about EE2 not being an "average" adult CD. In my opinion, as far as the GIF selection is concerned, "average" is an understatement. EE2 does have redeeming qualities - more on this in Operations. The hit list from my data base comparison was as follows: Seedy 6-Pak 3219 7th Heaven 4 BB1/R1 131 BB1/R3 108 Ecstasy 102 FAO-2 276 FAO-3 382 FAO-Gold 262 PCPIX-1 358 PCPIX-2 13 PCPIX-3 26 Visual Fan. 129 Pork Ware I 67 Storm-3 257 Note that there were only 104 (3323-3219=104) files on EE2 NOT found on one of the six CDs in Seedy ROM 6-Pak. Now while some may say that it isn't fair to compare a single disk with a set of six, let's remind ourselves that Seedy has been out for several months - EE2 is a current release. For a "new" CD to replicate 97% of the files on an older (by at least several months) CD represents a classic case of re-hashing. Operations to follow... ... I know a good tagline when I steal one. --- Blue Wave/RA v2.10 * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 4922 To: ALL Date: 09/19/93 4:28p Subj: Review of EE2 (con't) Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Operations - Sysop ================== There are 31 directories on EE2: "0" through "Z" hold the GIFs where the directory name represents the first letter in the GIF name (save "0" where all files whose names begin with a number are stored). Additionally, there is the CATALOG directory where all the "catalog" GIFs are; the MENU directory where the GIFReed program resides along with its support files; the TEXT directory where the text file descriptions are (text file names are d.BBS where "d" is the directory name - filename.GIF in column 1 and descriptions beginning in column 15); and the VIEWERS directory where other GIF viewers and graphics tools programs are in ZIP format. The VIEWERS directory also has a FILES.BBS file except it's the "expanded" type which includes file sizes and date stamps. Given the above and what I've picked up by reading this echo, I'd guess one could call this CD "BBS Ready" from a mechanical standpoint if the file description files' format suits the sysop's needs, or can be made to do so. The back jewel box insert makes a statement to the effect that the producers believe the GIFs to be free of copyright entanglements. I leave it to the sysops to judge the efficacy of that statement given the 100% hit ratio mentioned in the Statistics section. Operations - End User ===================== To begin, the reverse side of the front jewel box insert is stamped: "MS DOS 6.0 Notice:" A poorly printed (i.e. faint on the review copy) statement follows saying that the ASSIGN command is required but not included with DOS 6.0 and therefore DOS 6.0 users may have to use an alternate viewer. This notice was hidden by the inclusion of the warranty card and the "free CD" card mentioned earlier. I suppose it's reasonable to assume that the purchaser would find this notice sooner or later, but it seemed to me to be a weak attempt to inform the user of potential problems. That warning notwithstanding, I followed the instruction to log to my CD drive and type "INSTALL". This brings the immediate response that two parameters are required. (Recall, I said in the General section that the installation instructions were MOSTLY correct.) One has to specify the drive letters of the CD drive and the installation drive. The net result of a successful installation is that a customized EROTIC.BAT file is written to the \DOS directory of the installation drive. Since the \DOS directory is VERY likely to be in the DOS path, entering "EROTIC" from anywhere will start things rolling. Now about that ASSIGN warning...I run DOS 6.0 and while its "help" facility denies knowing anything about this command, the installed .BAT file works flawlessly. Others may not be so lucky. I'm no DOS guru so I can't offer much in the way of explanations. Here's where the fun begins! The ONLY thing (in my opinion) that would keep EE2 from being your "average" adult CD is the file viewer/manipulator that INSTALL activates. It's a shareware version (4.12) of GIFReed - one of the new breed of point-and-click front ends for image-oriented CD. (SHOWOFF on Busty Babes V.1/R.3 and GDS are other examples.) This is the viewer that I panned in my review of Digital Dreams some weeks back. Well, either the producers of EE2 knew how to use GIFReed better, or this is an updated version, or something, but results this time are MUCH improved in certain sectors. To begin on a positive note, the catalog images (remember the CATALOG directory?) are considerable larger and much clearer, likely thanks to heavy anti-aliasing during their generation. Secondly, only about one inch of screen real estate is hogged by a repetitious (and still useless IMO) title, not almost half a screen as with the case of Digital Dreams. Secondly, while I probably didn't fully explore the GIFReed on Digital Dreams, this version seemed to have more functionality. There's lots of image manipulation functionality and of course the point-and-click interface is state-of-the-art. This is a slick, mouse-driven interface, folks. It's hard to imagine any function that 99% of the users would want that isn't already included (at least in the registered version). Of particular note to those with only 512K video systems (recall, there's a number of 1024x768 images on EE2), panning large images is a no-brainer. After getting the image on the screen, just push and hold the left mouse button and the image is "grabbed" such that it follows all mouse movements - QUICKLY! This is a MUCH better and easier to use method than the usual arrow-key or PgUp/PgDn methods supported by a lot of viewers. Now for the gripes: The included shareware version of GIFReed is too crippled to permit a full evaluation before registering it. There are no less that five annoying beeps or messages at EROTIC.BAT startup, PLUS a repeating beep/notice from GIFReed every time a directory of more than 25 images is selected. Further, the "NON-REGISTERED" notice on the screen (common in shareware) F-L-A-S-H-E-S constantly when anything but a image is on the screen. Most annoying, which I suppose is its purpose, but also self-defeating if it's meant to encourage me to register! Since this is a holistic review of EE2, I don't want to concentrate on this shareware version of GIFReed too much. Still, it's worth saying that if a shareware author wants ME to evaluate his efforts with an eye towards purchase/registration, don't give me a crippled version to look at. The very thing that's left out or disabled might be just the function I'm most interested in, and the author will miss out. I register shareware I use because it's fair and because I want the benefits of registration like technical support, new release notices or versions at reduced costs, etc. I DON'T register shareware to get functionality that should've been there in the first place.

E-r-o-t-i-c E-n-c-o-u-n-t-e-r-s 2, that's how. Image-wise, this CD has nothing going for it that LOTS of other CDs of its kind don't have, but nothing against it either that they don't also have: tired images full of BBS ads, and perhaps some questionable copyrights. There're no animated files, nor any text "story" files which some of its kin have - whether this is a blessing or a curse is up to each purchaser to decide. What EE2 DOES have is GIFReed and this nifty product (judged by the version and catalog images on the review CD), can make looking at even tired images a more pleasant experience. The images are, by and large, good clear scans - many of which are full- or near-full screen in size. If you've seen virtually ANY other adult CD, certainly any of the comparison CDs, you'll recognize the works of the BBSs that produced them, (that's the good news) if not the images themselves (that's the bad news). Bottom line: Check the hit list again. If you don't have any apparent high duplication ratio with any of the comparison CDs you may already own, EE2 is not a bad purchase if for no other reason than to get a look at GIFReed and a "free" CD. If you already have Busty Babes V.1/R.3 (and therefore SHOWOFF), you may want to reconsider. The two programs (GIFReed and SHOWOFF) aren't identical by any means, but they both are paving the way to the future in user front-ends for image CDs. BTW: a thorough head-to-head comparison of the full-blown versions of each of these two fine programs would be worth reading if one had the means, time, and inclination to perform same and tell us all about it!

This review is broken up into several posts and contains four major sections: General - Miscellaneous comments that didn't seem to belong in any other section; Statistics - the quantitative, measurable characteristics of the CD; Operations - a more qualitative analysis of the "usability" aspects of the CD which tries to consider factors of interest to both the sysop and the end-user; and Visual - a purely qualitative opinion of the intrinsic qualities of the images themselves. Note that section boundaries are not inviolate. To those of you who have read some of my previous reviews of adult CDs, you will be familiar territory with this one as well. If you're a "new" reader, let me iterate: I am NOT an expert (whatever that is) on adult (or any other kind of) CDs. Accordingly, what follows is ONE PERSON'S OPINION. General ======= This CD is the product of Vivid Digital, apparently a separate marketing arm of the adult movie company called Vivid Video. This CD's packaging is as slick as it gets. The front insert is folded double - the outside providing and interesting cover while the inside does some marketing for other Vivid Digital products. There is also a warranty registration page. The back insert has system requirements (stated as a minimum of a 386-20 with 2Mb RAM, VGA monitor, DOS 5.0 with 2 Mb expanded memory, and a 100% SoundBlaster, AdLib, or MediaVision sound card, and a mouse). These requirements are incomplete and are an understatement to say the least, as we shall see in Operations. Interestingly enough, this CD is supposed to be Macintosh-compatible as well. Minimum Mac requirements are given as a 68020 CPU, 2Mb RAM, 16-bit video and monitor, and System 6.x or 7.x. There is a one-line installation instruction which is mostly correct. Finally, the edge of the back inserts shows the title of the CD making it easy to identify in a stack or when stored on its edge. Thanks, Vivid, for this small but much appreciated touch. Statistics to follow... ...

All 505 of its images are in compressed TIF (CTIF) format. In all they occupy some 636,687,610 bytes making their average size about 1,260,768 bytes. This is an important point, as we shall see. There are 15 directories on GOV1, 13 for the CTIF images, one (ASCII) for the file descriptions, and one (INSTALL) that holds the viewer programs before installation. There was no need to look for duplicates nor to make a comparison against the GIF name data base. The files in each of the 13 CTIF image directories are simply numbered 1.TIF, 2.TIF, etc. While there's not an equal number of files in each directory, arithmetic tells us that there are about 40 images in each one - though some have over 50. At any rate, this is a relatively unimportant matter. The directory names are apparently shortened forms of already released Vivid Video adult movies. Examples are: ARMYBRAT, TORRID, and ENDLESS to name a few. Again, this is of little or no consequence in the full scheme of things. Operations to follow... --- Blue Wave/RA v2.10 * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 4926 To: ALL Date: 09/19/93 8:31p Subj: Review of Girls of Vivid #1 (con't) Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Operations - Sysop ================== This is a null topic for several reasons, the most obvious being that all of this CD's images are copyrighted by Vivid Digital and therefore extremely unlikely to be legitimately usable on a BBS. That aside, the single file description text file in the ASCII directory is practically worthless being in a completely foreign format, not even within shouting distance of FILES.BBS. Finally there's the matter of the images being in CTIF format. Few viewers are available which can decode and display a compressed TIF image. BBS users accustomed to the convenience of GIFs would likely be turned off(see below!). Operations - End User ===================== The installation procedure is (almost) correct. Simply log to the CD and enter INSTALL. Gotcha! Just like the procedure for Erotic Encounters 2, one must provide the drive letters for the CD-ROM drive and the HDD where the programs necessary for viewing will be copied. That being done, no less than about 1.3 Mb of files are placed in the PICBASE directory (created on the fly) of the installation drive. Entering "GO" at this point gets things moving. This is the point where one discovers that one's video setup must be VESA compliant for "true color". This important bit was left out of the requirements printed on the back insert of the jewel case. Having met that requirement, I pressed on undaunted (Silly me!). Aside from some support files (actually for both GOV1 and GOV2), the installation procedure copies just two programs to the HDD: PICVIEW (a viewer) and PICBASE (a menu program savvy about the configuration of GOV1). At "GO", PICBASE loads and sucks up the file description file from the ASCII directory. In spite of the stated mouse requirement, I could only get the PICBASE to respond to the cursor movement keys. As the complete list of 505 files appears in the single menu table, there's no need for, nor any provision for navigation around the various directories. One simply highlights the desired file by moving a "bar" with the keys, hits Enter and then.... waits... and waits... and waits... and waits... and waits... and finally waits some more before a faded, bluish, somewhat smallish still from one of Vivid's adult movies appears on the screen. (More on this in Visual) Now my PC's not the fastest in the world but it doesn't exactly crawl either. It's a 486-DX2/66 with 8 Mb RAM - 3Mb given over to Smartdrv and the rest to XMS memory. My first selection (and damn near my last as well) was a file listed as 1815 Kb in size. It took PICVIEW 2:09 to decode it and display it. That's TWO MINUTES AND NINE SECONDS!! I tried a smaller file - 596 Kb. It required a mere 43 seconds to display. Recalling that the average size of these CTIF images is about 1,261 Kb, we're lookin' at an average decode time of 90 seconds. Friends and neighbors, if *I* am going to wait 90 seconds to see an picture of ANY kind appear on my computer screen - it'd better be a wingdinger! Unfortunately, IMO, the images of GOV1 don't make the cut. Understand, painful as it was, I did do more than 1-2 measurements. I also watched the access light on my "normal speed" Sony drive - it flickered a lot indicating that it wasn't the sole source of the delays. Maybe PICVIEW is just a poor implementation of the CTIF decoding algorithms - can't say because (a) there's no information provided about the program (not even a READ.ME file) and (b) I don't know a thing about the technology. (Perhaps some graphics guru on the echo can fill us in.) Whatever the causes, the stated requirements of a 386-20 with 2Mb of RAM and 2 Mb of expanded memory would seem to be somewhat understated - kinda like saying that Windows will run on a '286. PICVIEW does warn the user each time a file is selected for display that decompression may take a few minutes. My opinion is that Vivid Digital goofed big time in selecting CTIF for its CDs. I certainly don't have the patience for these protracted waits and I doubt many others will either. I should add that PICVIEW provides a slide show capability (but can you imagine USING it?), and a "magnification" capability via the +/- keys. There's also some rather limited image movement capability while viewing and image via the cursor keys. To complete this section, it's worth recalling that the minimum system requirements also called for one of three sound cards, presumably to play back sound recorded with each of the images. I don't have a sound card so I couldn't evaluate this aspect of the CD. Visual to follow... ...

Don't know that I have all of this exactly, but SIC is Standard Industry Classification. There is a number assigned to all types of manufacturing businesses. If you want attorneys then you are out of luck. I think there are also sales organizations, such as retail lumber suppliers. For example ready mixed concrete is something like 5321I, but other building materials having similar numbers. Once upon a time, I found a list on a BBS but it wasn't very complete. Go to the library and get a copy, or contact a company like American Business Lists and they will send you a catalog of their lists by SIC code.

The BBS number for P-80 Information Systems is (304)744-2253. If you want more information on the CD itself, go to a newstand and look for PC-Computing (OCTOBER 93 ISSUE). It was reviewed and rated #3 in the Unusual CD's Available. To find out more about P-80 (formerly known as Pirate-80), you can sift thru the Newweek archives, they were mentioned several times there as a prodominate Underground Board...As well as on the Phil Donahue show.

This review is broken up into several posts and contains four major sections: General - Miscellaneous comments that didn't seem to belong in any other section; Statistics - the quantitative, measurable characteristics of the CD; Operations - a more qualitative analysis of the "usability" aspects of the CD which tries to consider factors of interest to both the sysop and the end-user; and Visual - a purely qualitative opinion of the intrinsic qualities of the images themselves. Note that section boundaries are not inviolate. To those of you who have read some of my previous reviews of adult CDs, you will be familiar territory with this one as well. If you're a "new" reader, let me iterate: I am NOT an expert (whatever that is) on adult (or any other kind of) CDs. Accordingly, what follows is ONE PERSON'S OPINION. General ======= PGG1 is visibly an unconventional adult CD right from the git-go. To begin, except for its acronym-like name of "PGG1" (which unfortunately begs to be pronounced "PIG-1" or "PIGGY-1"), there is absolutely NOTHING printed on the CD itself. Further, there are no jewel case inserts save a postcard-like "registration card w/survey" packed inside the back panel (addressed to GroupWare) that promises a $20 gift certificate in exchange for its return. There is neither installation nor execution instructions, no descriptive text, nothing that further identifies the CD or hints at its contents. The neophyte CD user could be completely lost with respect to where to begin or what to do first. Fortunately, Yours Truly did not have that problem. (see Operations) Statistics ========== Tabulation of PGG1's contents reveals a total of 2448 GIFs of various resolutions totaling some 410 Mb. This gives a healthy average GIF size of about 167 Kb, the validity of which is born out by the large number of 800x600x256 scans on the CD. There are also 30 JPG files totaling about 3 Mb for an average size of around 96 Kb. These files decompressed into impressive looking scans indicating a JPEG compression factor likely somewhere between 25% and 50%. There are also 21 either FLI or self-executing GL "animation" files. I found about 3% file duplication among the GIFs. This was most rampant in the ?_ART directories, but it cropped up in several others as well. As annoying as the real duplicates were the "near duplicates" - files which technically weren't twins, but which varied so slightly from each other (e.g. position of a hand) that they might as well have been. Due to the file naming conventions used on the CD, there was no need to compare PGG1's file names against the GIF file name data base to search for possibly re-hashed files. (however, see Visual). Also worth mentioning is the presence of a number of corrupted files on PGG1. While I didn't view every scan in every directory, I did look at quite a few and several directories had one or more (some quite a few) corrupted files - files that would only partially or not at all display on the screen. The magnitude of this defect on PGG1 is nowhere near that of Erotic Encounters I. Still, it is aggravating and, as proven by other producers, avoidable. CUSTOMERS should NOT have to pay for defective merchandise. ... Open mouth, insert foot, echo internationally. --- Blue Wave/RA v2.10 * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30.0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 5052 To: ALL Date: 09/22/93 5:59p Subj: Review of PGG1 (con't) Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Operations - Sysop ================== This is a null consideration as most every scan on PGG1 bears some form of a copyright notice. Moreover, while there is no specific, general warning given against BBS usage, for example a declaration in a READ.ME file, some GIFs have an embedded comment making it clear that further distribution requires written permission. It's therefore dubious that the producers intended for this CD to be used on a BBS. Further evidence of the validity of that interpretation is the total lack of any BBS-useful text files describing the scans. Operations - End User ===================== Unconventionality strikes again! The only viewer included on PGG1 is called WIN_JPG which, somewhat obviously, only runs under Windows. Despite its name, in addition to decompressing and displaying JPG files, WIN_JPG will also display GIF, TIF, TGA, PCX, and BMP files. Its interface is very much like that of WINGIF (surprise, surprise) but it has somewhat different image manipulation functionality. WINGIF's capabilities seem more focused on the dimensional aspects of the image; WIN_JPG seems more focused on the intrinsic aspects like color balance, contrast, HSV, etc. WIN_JPG is a serviceable, fairly speedy viewer for Windows, and it will execute directly from its CD directory without the need to "install" anything on the HDD. This may help to explain the lack of any installation instructions, but a word to that effect would have been nice. Again, naive users, particularly naive Windows users (no, I'm not being redundant) would probably go ahead and copy the program files to their HDD - presuming they could get that far in the first place. PGG1 has 34 directories including 29 for GIFs and 1 each for the JPG scans, the WIN_JPG viewer, the animation files, some fairly purposeless text files (more on these later), and 1 completely empty directory (PGG_GIFF). In general, directory names seem to have been well-chosen. However, this time it's inconsistency that rears its head. Several directories (e.g. \FEET, \TATTOO, \PIERCING) hint at the SUBJECT MATTER of their scans while others (e.g. CMR, TFA_001, PGG_1) are discovered to indicate the ORIGINS of their scans. While this obviously isn't a "biggie", I think it further points up, shall I say, the inexperience of the CDs producers, the lack of which caused them to either not recognize or ignore the "touches" that intrinsically identify a product as "professional". The aforementioned text files are in the \INFO sub-directory of \CMR. They are descriptive files for the scans in \CMR, but instead of the FILES.BBS format (or anything remotely resembling it), these files look more like the files descriptions one sees on CSERVE in the CORNER or PICS forums. It's worth noting that the scans in \CMR all have the GIF89a embedded comments in them that are essentially redundant with the text in these files. ...

What makes an adult CD "adult"? Nudity? PGG1 certainly has that - and of both sexes. Graphic sex? PGG1 pretty much misses on this one unless you count exhibitionism and touching/caressing. What if, in addition to the nudity, there are scans of churches, landscapes, etc.? PGG1 has a number of those as well. How about "swimsuit GIFs"? PGG1 has its share of those, too. What do they do for/against a particular CD's identity? Your guess is as good as mine. The majority of PGG1's scans are of nude women, with lesser numbers of what I call "Hard R" scans and "G" scans. Still, there's enough of the latter to make one unsure just what PGG1 is trying to be. [As a related aside, Lee Noga has said Busty Babes Volume II will have some shareware on it. Talk about a confused identity! I'm anxiously waiting to see how that combination "looks and feels".] In sum, the diversity of PGG1's contents makes it somewhat difficult to discuss its scans in generalities, especially when relating to aspects other than technical merits and production values. On these two planes, PGG1 scores pretty high. The vast majority of the images are well lit, framed, and composed. Not counting the corrupted files previously mentioned, there appear to be few scanner-related goofs, etc. that spoil otherwise acceptable images, as has happened with other CDs. Perhaps a better title for this CD, or one just as good as "PGG1", would have been "Daughter of GIFFY Gold". (However, that name might inspire as unfortunate an acronym as the original name, with just as unfortunate a pronunciation.) There is a LARGE number of scans of the "GIFFY Girls" on this CD scattered across various directories. How many, if any, are repeated from GIFFY Gold I can't say. Certainly some of the names and um, faces seem familiar. Now that's either good news or bad news depending on one's viewpoint. Personally, I found GIFFY Gold to be without much merit. What's more disappointing for me, but harder to quantify, is that like GIFFY Gold, most of the scans of the GIFFY Girls have an amateurish quality about them. Call me "Picky" if you want, but photographs whose backgrounds include electrical outlets and phone cords, or are posed merely on a carpet in an otherwise seemingly empty room, or up against a blank wall, or starkly in an empty corner, etc. etc. etc. are NOT appealing. The whole scenario screams: "Look, Ma! I can take nudie pictures, too!" The idea that anyone would be brash enough to pawn such works off on CUSTOMERS under a rubric of art or erotica is disappointing to say the least. Comparing these images to what they're rather pathetically trying to emulate is like comparing homebrew to a fine wine. Certainly, not all of the GIFFY Girls' scans are of this ilk. Many of the alfresco scans are quite good. Of course, if you prefer "amateurs" or so-called "real people" in photos of generally "snapshot" quality, this might well be a strong plus for you. For myself, I much prefer the (happily numerous) scans like those included from David Thompson/TFA. Further general discussion of PGG1's imagery is difficult owing to the diversity of the CD's contents. Accordingly, a few specific notes about the images in some of the directories will wrap up this review. o The "animation" files in \ANIMATIO are new - that's the good news. The bad news is that they don't compare well with what one has come to expect. Frankly, I found them boring. That is to say, the ones I could get to run I found boring. Almost all of the self-executing EXE files either locked up my PC to the hard boot stage, or summarily aborted with a divide overflow error at start up leaving my display set in 40-column mode. I was glad this is a small directory. o The images in \ART are pretty good "G" scans, but again, one has to wonder what they're doing on a self-proclaimed adult disk. o The scans in the \BOND_ART and \DTP_ART, besides being almost completely redundant with each other, were particularly poor, IMO. Understand, these are line art drawings, not photographs. If producers want to include scans of drawings on their adult CDs, they should, IMO, stick with the likes of Vallejo. o I could not comprehend the 40 scans in \FEET of (guess what) peoples' feet, nor could I appreciate beyond some initial mild amusement the 58 cartoon-like scans in \FURRY which were mostly of foxes or cats standing erect, with human female busts attached. o The scans in the \NEWSCHOO directory had me really wondering what I was looking at until I decided that they were photos of a "new school" of photography in progress, along with what could only have been some of its students' lab or homework assignments. Undoubtedly, it was PHOTO-101 class time. o I DID NOT appreciate \OUTTAKES's scans. Why in the world would anyone want to include their culls in their final product? Since there are 63 scans here, that means about 9.8 Mb of wasted space. Of course, one could also wryly say that it provides the producers with an excuse to claim 9.8 Mb more of "product" in their advertising - but then one would probably be labeled as "biased". o The \PIERCING and \TATTOO directories provide a few rather bizarre images for those so inclined, or the curious. Unfortunately, there are too many dups or "near dups" between/among them. There's some additional scans of this type in the \TFP (for Todd Friedmann Photography) directory if one's interested. Bottom line: If you're looking for a hodge-podge collection of GIFs ranging from terrible through so-so and on up to terrific, across a wide variety of subject matter, and you want to view these images via Windows ('tho the use of an alternate viewer isn't precluded), then this CD could fill your needs. Otherwise, pick something else. ... Not tonight, dear.

I have two of RN>them. Both worked well for a few months, then one started to fail to RN>read SOME of my shareware discs. I am no expert and am still learning about CD-ROM technology and am asking a question more than I am Offering a solution but could it be the storage capacity of the disk is too large for the MITSUMI drive. From what I have been reading in these messages, the MITSUMI only has a capacity for reading disks up to 600 megs and some disk carry a capacity of 650 megs. Could it be that when you reboot your system, you can access the latter part of the disk because the first part of disk has already been read and not in memory? Like I said I am more interested in the answer myself because I am in the market for a CD-ROM and I have some reservations on the MITSUMI. I have always believed that you get what you pay for and the MITSUMI seems to be awfully cheap compared to all the other CD-ROMS.

Checking the table of dups from the GIF name data base, EE2 showed only 108 dups with BB R.3 which isn't too bad. Remember tho' that re-naming of what Lee Noga has begun to refer to as "grass roots" GIFs, i.e. the ones that have been out for a while, while perhaps not rampant, isn't uncommon either. Therefore, you may well find a somewhat higher number of dups between these two CDs than 108 if you did a file-by-file, visual comparison (which is damn near impossible). Hope this helps.

FLD's past products haven't had these kind of problems and I don't expect the future ones will either. --- FreeMail 1.07b * Origin: The Bit Bucket * Houston, Tx * 713/496-9670 * (1:106/9670) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 5127 To: FRANK GRESH Date: 09/24/93 12:27p Subj: THANKS Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No FG> Only problem is, now my eyes hurt.

We have consulted the attorneys that specialize in the representation of the seculiar, and it was an eye opener--There are a tremendous amount of people serving time who operated much like we in the 'Grassroot' era--Now, publishers like myself have to sweat out the statute of limitations, and hope we don't do time for products we put out prior--With what I know now, our "XXX" days are over and we have started a new company with a whole different attitude as well as product line--We have chosen to work with Hollywood agents and deal in name brand collections--beginning after the release of Busty Babes II and Texas Glamour-- (all licensed collections) a) American Dream Girls, LA Raiderettes, Venus Models, Chippendales etc. These are all collections that we have on a handshake, and are now at contract signing for.

We could fill the sucker with lots of 1.x stuff - which would satisfy those users looking for a disk with not much less than 600 megs. Interesting trade off eh? Bottom line is we decided from a marketing standpoint, to only go after the latest 2.x-supported software, being better than trying to pull a fast one on the user and claim the disk had over 600 megs (with almost half being useless drivers, patches, etc.) Lots of the software on the disk will run under 1.x - such as games, utils, etc. - but we held off on stuff SPECIFICALLY written for the 1.x release level. Hope this helps - perhaps your users will agree between 300-400 megs of useable software is better than a disk full of "junk."

Mike, thanks for the info on Dr Games. I may order it but am a little unsure about the 1993 games being on the disc. I ordered the Gameware Collection from your company. I asked if it had alot of 93' games on it. I was told it did so I ordered it and the Phoenix 3 too. Well to my suprise, there is NOT ONE game with a file date of 1993 on the entire disc. I decided not to call your company and make it an issue. The disc does have alot of games on it, but no 1993 files as I was told then and now here in this echo. Don't get me wrong, your sales person was very pleasant to talk to and your service also has been good, just I still do not have the newer 1993 games to put on my BBS. Thanks for your time. ...

Hopefully you are aware of what is on the other tw cd's.

I gonna get this right YET! For all those that are interested, Southern Beauties does indeed have 1000 unique images on it, GIFs and TIFs combined. The TIF images are, for all practical purposes, each a repeat of some GIF image, whether the TIF image has the exact same name or not. I'm only able to do file comparisons based on either name, size, or checksum. So my last post (Erratum), was based on a name comparison between the TIFs and the GIFs. YOU SHOULD IGNORE THAT POST! When Dave Van Gelder (one of SB's producers) first spoke, I mistakenly thought he was claiming that the TIFs were different images from the GIFs. NOT SO. The TIFs images were selected from the best of the GIFs (it shows) but only after the GIFs names had been re-sorted to be sequential. Accordingly, some of the GIF/TIF pairs will line up name-wise, some won't. Bottom line: It don't make a hoot! For now at least, Southern Beauties is the slickest, prettiest adult CD out there.

Additionally, there's a file called DATABASE.ZIP that is a .WK1 formatted spreadsheet. It is a cross-reference of the GIF name "hits" for each of the CDs in my GIF name data base. The intersection of each row/column tells the number of GIF names that the two respective CD share. For example, Storm-3 and FAO-GOLD share 99 GIF names between them. The scanning of the paper copies of my past reviews is taking longer than I imagined. As I get them done, I'll upload them to HDC and post a message to that effect in this echo. Dan Guillory (sysop of HDC) says he'll put them in the Text/Magazine library. He's abusy guy, too, so if you look and don't see them there, wait a few days and try again. There's been far more interest in my reviews than I'd ever imagined. It's very gratifying and I sincerely thank all of those who have supported my efforts.

Hi there! Thanks for the note. I sent the message off here before calling Groupware and getting ahold of you on the phone. I greatly appreciate your responsiveness and willingness to assist with the problems I've been having. Guess I was just talking to the wrong people before. IA>However, there is another problem and it is not Mitsumi's fault... IA>Some of the CDROMs had been recorded on JVC units and due to a technical IA>difficulty with JVC unit (software & hardware), some of the disks don't IA>meet to Orange Book specs, Mitsumi is a little bit more sensitive for the IA>specs than some other units and it will reject this type of disk with IA>CDR101 error. Thanks for the explanation. Since the CDR101 is one error message I had received, perhaps this was part of the problem... IA>As you know I can only change your unit with a new one and your problems IA>may still continue. Well at least a new unit will have a chance at functioning properly, in case the problem was something other than just "sensitivity" to the JVC-made disks. I appreciate your swapping the unit for me to try and get rid of any gremlins. IA>After pinpointing JVC unit problem, I have got their disks re-mastered and IA>now they have disks that can be read by Mitsumi and all others. By any chance, do you know if either of the disks I've had problems with were done on the JVC? They were "Ecstasy Hot Pics" and "Smutware". If you haven't contacted the makers of those two disks, you might see if they've used that unit... Once again, thank you for assisting with my problems. I will look forward to receiving the Mitsumi back. I went ahead and picked up a Toshiba for my home system while this one was gone, but am thinking about putting the Mitsumi in my husband's work system so he can do some research on the national phone book CDs for potential customers (were those JVC disks?). - Heather --- * DeLuxe* 1.12 #2986 * If you drink, don't drill --- FidoPCB v1.4 [ff013/c] * Origin: Sound Advice - 24 Nodes (816)436-4516 (1:280/333) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: HEATHER KRAUSE Number: 5296 To: BOB JACKSON Date: 09/27/93 7:39p Subj: Review of Raincoat CDs Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Bob- Thanks for the reviews (although I've missed more than I've seen..).

As most discriminating Shareware CD-ROM users and Sysops know, Night Owl was among the very first to offer a quality disk at a fair price. More than four years later, Night Owl is still the pre-eminent Shareware CD leader in the WORLD. That is the opinion not only of N.O. customers, but of CD reviewers in the industry. The following quotes are excerpted (with permission) from a review of Night Owl v9 in the Sept./Oct. 1993 issue of CD-ROM Reporter; an independent industry publication from Centos Company, Los Alamintos, Ca. "Night Owl 9 is a fully loaded CD-ROM. This is not an economy model 250 meg disk. This is a full size, two ton truck of over 600 megs" "Night Owl 9 is also a new disk. All the files have 1993 archive dates. None of the files... had a date significantly different from the archive date" "the games and entertainment category, alone, will make this CD-ROM a must buy." "includes a search engine that allows key word searches in either the file names or in the description, making locating files that you might have an interest in easier." "covers a wide variety of interests." "The number of useful and fun items included makes it an exceptional value." That is what the experts say about Night Owl. TCM Computing has had a business relationship with Night Owl for 3 1/2 years; longer than anyone. Version 9, Graphics v1, and the soon-to-be-released v10 were assembled at TCM. We are the Official Night Owl Support BBS, and an authorized dealer and distributor. Next time you are in the market for a top quality Shareware CD, come to the leader: Night Owl. And when you need a Night Owl product, come to TCM.

Righting this message in a hurry, and it probably makes no sense--Yes, we have SHOWOFF, and the scanning is nice--:) We took it to the pros ! BB 2 should not fall short of the mark for what it is *1000* original slides. We did not do any in 24 true color, they are all 640 or 800X600--Too many video cards out there are not equipped for true color and we ran out of time to dupe the collection in true color--Oh well....

I have no desire to collect 600 megs worth of useless files. You made the right decision. So long as the buyer understands this up front, there is no problem. I haven't sold many Monster Media 1993 discs because it only contains about 420 megs of files dated from Jan through April 1993. It is a nice collection, but the competition is too stiff to buy a partially full CD-Rom of shareware. However, the market is not exactly flooded with OS/2 discs, so you will probably be alright.

Obviously, I am not Tim. However, please accept a few comments from the peanut gallery..... (1) ALL reviews are, IMHO, most welcome. (2) It would be much appreciated if someone would grab the reins and review the NON-XXX discs as well. Shareware and commercial releases are abundant, but we have no data for comparison before purchase. (3) Since Bob Hall does not allow discussion of adult material in the CDROM echo, then this is the only place left - until someone starts an "ADULT ENTERTAINMENT" echo. This would be MY choice. (4) This echo really ought to be for the buying/selling of CD-ROMs, as the echo name suggests, however it should also carry messages pertinent to the selection of CD-ROMs for purchase. (5) Regardless of the subject matter of the discs that you review, you have set up a fine system. Separating the technical from the content and posting the information in separate messages makes it very easy to locate exactly the data I need to make an informed purchase or a meaningful recommendation to a client. - Arnie :+} --- GoldED 2.40 * Origin: The Magnificent MIDI Machine (1:141/1020.5) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ARNIE GROSS Number: 5353 To: MIKE SHANNON Date: 09/24/93 8:47a Subj: SHAREWARE ONLINE #2 Refer: NONE Read: NO Private: No Mike - MS> Shareware Online #2 now available MS> * All files dated 1/93 to 8/93.

It hasn't even been three weeks since you sent you letter, much less since we received it! It was postmarked the 9th, and by the time we received it, the special "while stocks last" that you ordered was out of stock. Normally at that point, we call and notify our customers as to what is happening. We did not, however, have your phone number yet. We re-ordered more, and when they arrived today, we not only sent them to you FedEx, entirely at our expense, we also sent you two more excellent CD-ROMs absolutely free with our apologies. I don't think we could have done anything else to alleviate the problem. Since we asked you for your phone number, we have received one phone call telling us what that was, two flames in this echo, and five phone calls from your number that consisted of a hang-up when we said "Hello?" - one of them at 3AM in the morning at our home! We try our best to keep our customers happy. Of course we don't want to be described in such a way that simply is not true - just as U.S. CD-ROM distributors can't help a minimum two-week turnaround when the post-office delivers a Canadian customer's order to them 10 days after it is mailed, we can't control what we can't control. We *recommend* that our U.S. customers call us using credit cards, and spend the little extra to use a courier service, but we will take orders however they arrive, and send them however the customer wishes they be sent. We even will have them shipped directly from within the U.S. if necessary. We do not cash cheques until orders have been sent, and we don't charge credit cards until the 1st of the following month. Shipments to Canadians now automatically include 2 day or less service, with insurance and package tracking. If anyone has any any problem with any of their purchases, we'll help. I believe these are positive *good* service points.

Ditto--We will be governed under the video regulations until caselaw dictates other--Just for the heck of it, I pulled Florida's statutes and it included computer generated media--Its a felony, and FLA considers CDROM publishers as manufacturers, vs a book store, video store, or topless bar. Spent alot of time with ammendment attorneys, and it was money well spent. Not wanting to believe what I was advised, I spent time with the video industry, and it was deja vu all over--All I ever knew was BBS existing scans/images and believed tapping the licensed stuff was gonna be tough--Well, I found the repositories, and have been offered numerous deals, and when asked why they offered it to me, the standard answer was they felt I had enough bucks ($250,000) and a legal contingency fund already set aside to handle the 'Biz'--NOT!!! From there, I got all the factoids about dealing in the 'XXX' industry, and alot of inside gov't info was released to me--All I will say, is I hope I got out of that side in time--No money is worth it, and when the first publisher takes a fall, you remember this conversation we are having now. None of these publishers (incl myself up until recently) ever gave the legal implications a thought--What's the harm, we all thought. Well, what makes us think we can deal in 'XXX' nationally and internationally and think we are invincible to prosecution--Video's and mags are regulated, and why should we have free reign in the seculiar when others who did the same as we are doing time in the 'Pen ? The gov't is onto us CD-ROM publishers, especially when alot of the video CD's went National on talk shows--The gov't is monitoring all online environments for as much info into this arena--There is gonna be a sting, when the gov't knows what/how to best use what they know-- Distributors are even expressing concerns about dealing in 'XXX', and the shows are starting to ban these products--The industry has matured beyond the 'Grassroots', and when you mention CD-ROM, there are less, 'Duh' responses--You would not believe the challenges adult manufacturers go through, and the monies paid out to avoid busts......it's un-comprehensible for a little person like me-- Don't know how much sense this makes--But my point is, I cannot afford the risks associated with manufacturing 'XXX' CD's--If others can, more power to them....ignorance is not bliss with obscenity issues--I just thank all those that thought enough of me to save my butt from the 'AX' that will ultimately fall on another-- So it was not hard for me to look to develop another niche in the biz, at least if nailed for T&A, first time should equate to a misdeamnor--So, I may leave that arena too, and stick with famous female collections.

I agree that an "adult entertainment" echo/forum would be more appropriateas it would be both a place for those that want to discuss such topics a place to gather as well as insulate those that are not interested in such topics from data/info/chat etc. that they'd just as soon not hear/read. There was a small bit of previous discussion on this topic but it seems to have died for lack of interest/commitment from someone willing to take the reins. I try to keep mindful of non-interested parties when I write the reviews and choose my vocabulary accordingly. I always welcome comments on how I could improve them in this or any other regard, as well as support such as your post to "press on". I was approached by one shareware producer to do a review, which I'm willing to try, but I haven't heard from them since. Mike Shannon posted a few "duplictae file" comparisons between shareware CDs a while back. How much more than that is possible to review would require some thought. Obviously one couldn't try out several thousand programs and report on each of them. Also, according to Lee Noga, the shelf-life of a shareware CD is about 90 days (I think I got that right), so any review would almost have to come out in parallel with the CD's release. That might pose some logistical problems. At any rate, thanks for your comments. --- * Origin: Hard Disc Cafe | Houston Texas | (713) 589-2690 | (1:106/30) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BOB JACKSON Number: 5422 To: LEE NOGA Date: 09/29/93 11:10a Subj: Re: Review of STAREware Refer: NONE Read: [N/A] Private: No Can't thank you enough, Lee, for sharing with us all FOR FREE data/info that you paid dearly for.

I have no doubt that you feel you are selling a quality product. I also have no doubt that the vendors who I have bought from in the past don't also feel they were selling a quality product. What concerns me is that you are not willing to stand behind your product. I'm not asking you to send me one and then in 30 or 90 days, send me a bill. What I was asking is that if I find your CD-Rom does not live up to my expectation based the claims of yourself and others (IE: anyone else who comments on the specific disk), that I be allowed to send it back and request a refund. Your asking people to buy somthing sight unseen, telling the consumer that if you don't like it once you see it, oh well. If this disk is as good as you say it is, then what is your concern? I'm sure I would love it and keep it, but if your idea of beauty and mine are tottallt diffent, then there is a chance that it would not be what I was looking for. You've told me about how much money you have invested in the disk, yet you would not invest in pictures you could not see, based on the photographer saying "Yea, there great"... Would you?

I have made enquiries about my order SEVERAL times via your BBS and at least once in this echo. Your response has ALWAYS been the same, ZILCH, NADA, SFA, NOWT. Are you making business or simply pretending to take orders and cackling maniacly in the background? There are a number of customers connected to this echo who EXPECT a reasonable level of service from persons claiming to be suppliers. My question, and this will be the LAST time it is made to you, what is the status of my order, which was made via your BBS? Has it shipped yet? Are you planning to ship it any time soon? Is there some problem with the order? Are you a REAL person of justs figment of someone's imagination? I have placed orders with you, Boris and Mike. All were made at the same time. The order from Boris has been delivered, one disc returned as faulty and I received the replacement. Mike has not received his order as he apparently has not NetMail contact on the BBS he uses (Get a mailer, Mike ), but the order to you, although acknowledged PERSONALLY by you on your BBS, STILL has not arrived or as far as I am aware, even been sent by you. Doug, I am on the verge of sending you a flame, this (if you do not understand it) is a POLITE request. Your level of service to your customers cannot be described in words, at least not while ladies are present, and I can only presume that you have some sort of masochistic tendancy and want people to actually dislike the service, which you are NOT, providing. WAKE UP DOUG and get on with job. Do I get my CDs or not? MOVE IT OR LOSE IT. Cheers, --- GEcho 1.01+ * Origin: Smile, it makes people wonder what you're thinking.
