The OED II at about $895 U.S. is one disc. There was an earlier two-disc

are going to spend that kind of money, make sure you are getting the OED
II. Cheers!

I am looking for a 16 bit cd rom playre with 350 msec access and a
sound card that will support soundblaster/adlib board.  I found a
bundled package at my local Best Buy in Iowa city selling a bundled
gravis/logitech 16 bit sound card and an internal cd rom player for $399 with
only a demo cd disk and no speakers included.  Is this a
good deal, is the gravis sound board any good?
Also this store had the creative labs soundblaster 16 bundled with a
375msec drive, speakers and 5 cd titles for $589.00  Is this a good system?
I have a 486-33 local bus machine with 8MB ram  and lots of Drive
bays so let me know whats out there I am ready to buy.

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.

If you would like a catalog of over 400 CDROM titles, including games,
shareware discs, educational items, Art/Desktop publishers, Business,
Military, Health, and Research/Literature.

PLUS MUCH MORE!

Items added dialy/weekly via out support BBS (614-436-0180) and the
catalog is updated and put out monthly.

Must call each month (or leave message via here, or my BBS) to recieve a
catalog.

I can FAX the lists, however I am asking that you be serious in buying
before you ask me to do this, ESPECIALLY Long Distance.

Numbers:

614-436-9223

Hey Jim...

Please *don't* respond to "send me a catalog" messages - just send um a
catalog and be done with it.  Telling your customers that it's on the

There's a new CD ROM magazine that covers info like this - info that
goes beyond the concerns of the end user... It's called CD-ROM Today and
is published by GP Publications...

This magazine is a step above the others I've seen... The articles look
like research papers and contain valuable info for money hunting folks
like us.  Here's their info:

p.s. I spoke to these people at COMDEX and they warmed to the idea of
somehow integrating the info that flows through this echo into their
magazine.. We'll see & we're working on it.  Again the magazine is
called "CD-ROM Today".

I'm within a week or two on deciding what drive to buy and where.  I
have the PAS-16 sound card and was wondering if your bare Texel DM-3024
drive includes, not only the drive, mounting rails, SCSI (50 pin) cable
and caddy, but also the 5 pin audio cable?

If not, how much is the audio cable?

Is the Texel DM-3024 the best multi-spin, SCSI drive for the money on
the market right now?

EB>works. Please be specific.

 CE>  So far I have 1 lonely audio CD (it works great - with DOS 6),
 CE>  would *you* mind being specific about your CD's and offer any
 CE>  recommendations? (p.s. any to sell?) Thnx.
I was requesting that the original author specify CD's that did not work on
the Drive. I do have 1 CD available for sale - Total Baseball, I ended up
with 2 copies- this isn't even opened, stats to the end of 1991. I'd sell it
for $25.
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.

Joe, we sold the mentioned drive in thousands. I have not seen a single disk
with a problem, unless the disk was pressed incorrectly. TTYL

Don, you might want to check out the Monster Disk.  A two disk compaiation of
just about everything - games, utitlties, fonts, gifs (no adult ones,
though), windows stuff...All packed with a spiral bound book that contains a
complete listing of what's on the two disks.  My only complaint is that too
much of disk one is devoted to software and utitlties for various BBSs.  I
picked mine up at a local compter fair for about $55.

Does anybody have any comments on the game European Racer (which I just
believe came out a short while ago for CD-ROM only by Revell)?!? Because I'm
thinking of buying it but would like a few opinions as to whether it is a
good multi-media game like the 7th Guest is! Thanks, all information

Hey Gary, I read the note you sent across the line about the LU004 drive.
Well I would like to know if you could supply me with the name and number at
MItsumi, of who you spoke with. As I have three drives, 2 of which are the B
series, but the last is a C series (C5511666) manufactered in APRIL 93. Since
Its not a D series but manufactured after MARCH 93, I don't know if its one
of the 004 drives or not. I want to talk to someone before I call the seller
and find out if mine is or is not a 004 drive.
                                        Thanks in Advance, Ben.

Hi All;
     I just discovered a really great feature of this drive.  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/

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).

Regards,
Mike

I don't have Night Owl 6.1 anymore.  I would do $25 for those other two
however, and if you wanted Night Owl 7.0 I would sell all of them for $35.
Let me know!

Try telling that to the audio shops that sell used CDs...sure makes

The 350 Mitsumi drives can be run off the Aztec Sound Galaxy NX-Pro, or the
ATI Stereo F/X Cd sound card.  I have either one.  The Aztec is $150 and the

I have read in some CD echo that there is a BETTER cd-caching software and
its put out by Norton. If you didn't know, thats all that CD-SpeedWay is, a

Would a Pilips CM-100 for $150, including shipping in original box work for
you--includes card and cable.  Less than one year of use--spend most of its

Your list of CDs cannot be read.  I think the margin is set too large accross

Now that I have finally gotten a CDRom, I am quite anxious to get some used
CD's. SOme for dad, some for the kids. The kids would like Sherlock Holmes 2,
or 3, Mammals, Karyndia(?), Dinosaurs, or any others that might come to mind.
For dad, well, any xxxx-rated cd's out there?

Thanks to all....Sam

p.s. Boris, somehow a driver that wouldnt work was loaded and after trial and
error was able to figure it out. Works perfectly now. You didnt send a
catalog however. Thanks..

The box for both models says CRMC, but the new drives also have
a barcode strip with "MTSCMRC 005S" on it.

Thanks Babe !! 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.

Thanks for the KUDO !

-> Hello Tim,
->     What CD's have you put out?  Which one are you working on now?

We do the Shareware Studio & SoundWAV CDs... We're currently working on
Shareware Studio III and hope to have it available in late summer.

We've just gotten an exclusive to distribute a new & interactive adult
title.  This disc is 100% original - original girls, original film,
original music, original art, original concept, original everything...
Nothing currently available can touch it. The video portions of this
disc are 30 frames/second on a 320x200 pixel screen and are less than
150 kb/second.  The disc should be ready in about 2 weeks...

I have Giffy Gold, I am interested in any of the above for a straight across

I don't think so Jean !! We jsut installed 2 more new modems ( ZyXel's )
and we had a few bugs to work out. I think everything is OK now, since
much of the system seems to be running just fine now.

Enjoy your new cd's !!

Nope, the audio cables do not come with the system.

>>    If not, how much is the audio cable?

If your going to hook the Texel to the Pro, then you'll need the sound
kit, which we have in stock and it's priced at $25. This gives you the
cable, manual, drivers for the Pas and another scsi cable as well.

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.

If you need further assistance, please feel free to call us anytime 7 days
a week at 216-225-3263 and we'll be happy to help you further.

Den, there's a NEW one just out call "PC-KWIK". It'll cache your hard drive
as well as your cd, plus offers keyboard buffers, screen enhancers and more.

The street price is $39.00 and worth it as it is the lowest cost cache we've
seen.

You can call them direct at 503-644-5644 and ask for the order department.

Hope this helps....

Steve:
-> Chris, I have 4 Hitachi drives that run off of one controller, so
-> they are single propriety.  They do, however, have caddies.  (it
-> really speeds up the drives!)  I am willing to sell them for along
-> with a 4-bay case for $650 + shipping.  Let me know.

If this Chris person didn't bite, then I will.  I am looking for Hitachi
CDR-3600u drives, 4 of them.  The drives you are describing sound like the
3500's and they will work just fine I'm sure.  If you still have them and
want to part with them, please give me a call.  Thanks.

Defense will prove that on 05-28-93 at exactly 12:00, Jim Clements spake
thusly to John Hughes:

JC>JH>I'm looking for the Oxford English Dictionary. Does anyone know who
JC>JH>has the best price? The suggested retail price for the two-disk set
JC>JH>$895.
JC>
JC>
JC>The OED II at about $895 U.S. is one disc. There was an earlier two-di
JC>DOS version (only the original OED, none of them OED II updates). If y
JC>are going to spend that kind of money, make sure you are getting the O
JC>II. Cheers!

It is expensive at $895, but the CD is about 1/3 the cost of the bound
version (and a whole lot easier to search!)  Of course, if word origins and
language history are your thing, the OED is IT.  But don't drop $895 on it if
you just want to have "the biggest dictionary on your block".

How much do you need to use it?  If it is only needed when you have the
two computers together, you can use Unet or Lantastic Z to run a
parallel port network.  Unet is shareware, and allows the slave machine
to use the drives on the server, in this case your desktop.  That's one
solution.

Sorry, i disagree USED is USED no matter what condition it's in! Everything
Looses a great deal of value the very first time it becomes used and after a
few months OLD become out dated and STALE nobodies interested in a 2 months
old play boy or PC magazine.... These are not antiques or hard to find items,

get real there being SOLD because you don't want them RIGHT, why not there
PERFECTLY new and good condition!!

-> I like to think I am honest...  anyway, the cd boxes come  shrink
-> wrapped from the press. I can't add or take away anything without
-> breaking the wrap which I paid dearly to have put there.  I  hope


Terry, I was shocked to read part of my original message that you
kindly echoed back to me. I NEVER meant to imply that you were in any
way less than totally honest! 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. Your extra compacting of the
files added value to the product (for BBS purposes). The only ill
effect is to alter the numbers a little on the box liner.

James

I have 1 used Hitachi 2500 internal cd rom drive for sale for $120.

This INCLUDES the drive, the card (which will control up to 4 Hitachi
drives),
the cable, a copy of the manual for the drive and manual for controller, and
a floppy disk with HITACHIA.SYS (software driver), MSCDEX.EXE (v2.21) and
sample
CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT on it.

The drive is a full-height, caddyless drive.  It looks good, is clean and
works well (as does the controller).

$120 for the complete package (plus shipping).

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. Thanks......

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.

I agree about used S/W in general, *IF* the original owner hasn't registered
the S/W. If he has, then I'm not certain it would be legal to re-sell it
unless the registration was transferrable. CDs don't (usually) have
registration per se other than to build the customer list for the
distributor. At any rate, I agree: end of thread.

Not wanting them does not equate to them being damaged or out-of-date like a
magazine (which by the way tend to *INCREASE* in value with age - try buying
a first edition of Playboy - or of Busty Babes for that matter). 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.  Anyway -- end of thread.

I believe that means you are getting a case for the above for only
20.00, which is a deal.

Of course, you *can* get the Pioneer unit for just a little more, which
is a *better* deal, if you need 6 drives.

You obviously overlooked the fact that the $130 price is for bare drives
while the $600 price is for 4 drives, CASE and controller.  Where does the
price of the cabinet and cables appear in YOUR little calculation.

my 2nd and 4th graders at home. I need some educational cd's to keep their
little minds occupied till August 30. Any suggestions on what I should get?
They seem to bore easily if it's percieved as traditional education <g>. Any
info would be appreciated from venders, dealers, or those experienced with
kids of this age. Helllllllppppppppppp.

 JR> my     favorite audio disk in the drive  and  run  CDPLAY  which
 JR> came on  the          installation  disk  and  I've  got  music.

  No flame intended... but even my used Hitachi  3500's  will  play
  music and they are only $130 each.

 JR> put it in my startup     file.  I can then go  about  any  other
 JR> task on the machine with music     in the background.    I  have
 JR> not  noticed  any  conflict  with  other          programs  yet,

  You must not run DesQview.   If  you  try  to  use  cdplay  under
  DesQview you will get jumping and skipping and it  won't  work...
  but if you find the small program called "Playback" it will  work
  under DV.

 JR> doing this.  BTW it does require unplugging  the  speakers  from
 JR> the Soundblaster and plugging into the drive,  but  if  this  is
 JR> really     problem free I may buy  a  second  set  of  speakers.

  You should get a SB pro and hook up the  drive  internally.   All
  you need is a couple of wires you can find in any old VCR.   Hook
  up the right and left channel and the ground will go through  the
  motherboard.  You can then control the volume, mute  etc  through
  the keyboard.

Hi, could you send me a catalog of CDs? I'm in the market for ShareWare CDs,
and BBS stuff, like Inexpensive cd-rom drives. And i would also like to add a
comment about catalogs.... Could you put AS much info about the CDs as
possible (like how many megs, FILES.BBS descriptions, type of directorys....
ect.)

Right now im looking for ShareWare Studio 2 (it looks the best to me, and the
creator wrote ALOT of info about it)

Please send it to:

 yeah. it's a small tsr.  just don't use DESQVIEW with it, and you'll
continue to enjoy it.  Desqview is the only prog I know of that locks it
up! even when it is executed before running it.

How do you do this?  I have a Sound Blaster (original) and have tried to
connect my Cd's outputs to the Sound Blaster's inputs and I didn't get
anything out of it.  Is there something "special" that I missed?

Thanks,

Atlanta Computer Currents (Jay Communications, Inc.) recently did a fax
poll on CD ROM... They didn't state the sample size, but I assume it's
sufficient.  Anyhow:

How many titles do you own?
---------------------------
0-2   35%
2-4   18%
4-8   29%
8 +   16%

What do you use CD ROM for?
---------------------------
Entertainment  24%
Multimedia     24%
Education      23%
Other          10%
Shareware       9%

How much money invested in CD's?
--------------------------------
$  0 - $ 250  57%
$250 - $ 500  28%
$500 - $ 750   6%
$750 - $1200   2%
$1200 +        4%

How much did you pay for your player?
-------------------------------------
$  0 - $ 350  27%
$350 - $ 600  62%
$600 - $ 850   6%
$850 - $1100   2%

Where did you buy your player?
------------------------------
Mail Order  41%
Retailer    31%
Superstore  19%
VAR          4%
Mass Merc.   2%

Do you plan on upgrading?
-------------------------
No  65%
Yes 35%

If upgrading, why?
------------------
Faster drive  40%
Other         28%
Multimedia    20%
Interface      5%
Kodak Comp.    5%

93% of the people who don't own players did say that they plan on using
CD ROM in the future... And from my experience, 10%-15% of everyday BBS
users own a CD ROM player.

PJ>Where did you get this drive, and how much did you pay? Thanks!

Hi Paul;
        I paid $169 and got it from a systems integrator that I deal
        with through my work.  Not sure what the street price is but it
        shouldn't be much different.

Hi Joseph;
        My drive (Internal) has a headset jack on the front.  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/

Hi all!  I need to know if rumors I have heard are true.

1) 1 Hitachi CDROM proprietary controller handles 4 Hitachi Drives

2) You can have 4 Hitachi controllers in the same machine giving you 16
CDROM drives.......

If you plug the audio cords from the Mitsumi into the MIC in port on the
soundblaster and set the soundblaster /LINE:12 you can here a CD normal
through the SB speakers.

To whom it may concern-or know for that matter-I am new to the world of
cd-roms and was wondering if anyone could explain what are the
differences in cd\roms.  for instence what is multi-media?  Or mpc?
What is the difference between __ms access time and transfer rates?
I want to buy a rom but don't know what i need.  I am looking for one
that will handle games and music but don't want to spent four diget
figures.  is the mitsumi that i have been seeing for $175-195 any good?
Thanks a million,

Hi,
   Well, like most people, I hate to admit I am not perfect, but... 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.

To the people at profit press, I am sorry to have influenced anyone into
thinking it wasn't a top notch disk.

Murf!

I would encourage you to pursue whatever legal remedy you can... they are an

reasons that I no longer sell adult titles.  I prefer to stick with reputable
publishers who don't screw their dealers.  ;-)

Hi Boris, I want to say thanks for the CD Rom drive. It arrived in good shape
8 days after I ordered. Not bad for U.S.A. and Canada Post offices. 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.   Thanks,       Ron.

Quoting Boris Osadciw's message of 06-01-93 to All, in pertinent part:

 BO> Groilers Encyc DOS v5. or Windows v1. $50.  ChestNuts CD's ALL $14.0
                               ^^^^^^^^^^

Is that really v1?  I think the current version is 1.5.

 MW> You think the case/power supply and cables are  free??  I  would
 MW> love to have and  external case/power supply and cable  set  for
 MW> $20, it is a good deal.

  If you can find a better deal then buy it.  You are overlooking a
  few things...  first, a cable 3 1/2  foot  long  would  cost  you
  about $20 to make yourself, second what is  the  best  price  you
  have seen on a 4 bay external case?   ...I  know  they  can't  be
  found for under $40.  Third, what do you think is  the  shipping/
  cod cost of such a package?   Even 4 th class mail  runs  between
  $20 and $30 depending on the distance.  I also include 4 Y  power
  splitters   that   go   for   about   $3   from   most   sources.

  Now let's include those overlooked expenses:

  580   is where you stopped

  $40   4  bay  case             (excluding   shipping   and   cod)
  $25  Shipping and cod  (averaged out)
  $20  3 ft cable with 4  connectors    (excluding 1  hr  to  make)
  $10  Y power splitters (rounded off)

  Total :  $675

  Looks like a $75 discount from my chair. :)   See...  I'm a  nice
  guy after all!

  I can't include a custom made external cable that cost me $30  to
  make, and a $25 power supply for  $20  on  top  of  that  already
  discounted deal... and still make a profit. I  know  that  it  is
  possible to get all the business a person would want  by  selling
  dollar bills for 90 cents...  however  let's  remember  the  idea
  behind doing business is to make a profit.

it got me out of buying Christmas presents in 1988.

     Are you sure?  I just picked up the Jethro Tull 25th Anniversary Boxed

     Yep.  Just slipped disk four in and it's 77:45.  I think I have a few
others of similar length, as well.

     Only partially true.  While the cd rom version is no doubt easier to
use, I paid $250 American for a Compact (note:  compact is not abridged, and
does in fact have all the information of the twenty volume set -- I simply

    What is the access times?
    Do you have any CDs you can throw in with them (prefer something for the
BBS)?
    Total cost with S&H to Canada?

    Right now, I am swaying more to the Pioneer, as I can get them with a
total of 6 drives (you know what I mean) for $799.99 US + Interface card.

Hi Jerry,
I saw your message asking for help in the 7th guest. Since your near the
end I think you can help my friend, he says hes stuck by a secret room
before the microscope puzzle and he has to solve some puzzles with
stones in the floor (I hope thats descriptive enough), also he cant
figure out the microscope puzzle with the viruses. Can you help?

Joe, by talking about the Seedy Rom movie disk, I assume that you
are also the publisher of the Seedy Rom 6-pack. I was just testing a
cd-rom catalog program (CDPRO), and noticed that disc 6 had two
directories in the DIRS directory that weren't on the disk. They were
TARGA and BMP_PCX.  Was this an error?

Mike:

Thanks for the phone conversation the other day re: Porkware. I never did
get the message you said you sent. On the other hand, I read this echo from
two different BBSes and they never seem to have exactly the same new
messages in them, so maybe your message went into some electronic gazooland.
Gimme a shout if you ever recover to the point where we can proceed. Cheers!

 DB> Storm series

 DB> Hot news
 DB> Bangkok
 DB> Erotic cafe
 DB> Moving fantasies
 DB> the women of venus
 DB> Erotic encounters
 DB> Smutware


Personal opinion of a collector with 30+ titles:

Storm III is the best of that series
PC Pix series is pretty good but becoming dated
Porkware is rumored to be a re-hash of images from other CDs
Hot News/Bangkok/Erotic Cafe - no data
Moving Fantasies is so-so
Women of Venus isn't "adult" at all
Erotic Encounters is fair/good
Smutware - no data

You left out the Seedy ROM series, the FAO series, and the Hot Pix
series. All are superior to those you listed, IMHO, but in varying
degrees.

If you're looking for just 1 or 2 more, Busty Babes and Ecstasy are
*HIGHLY* recommended.

Hope this helps.

I got a Pioneer 6-disk DRM-600 from Dirt Cheap Drives in Computer
Shopper for $829.

It's the slower model, but for a BBS I don't think it makes a big
difference, since the software (which I wrote) uses HD catalogs and
stages all xfers to an HD/RAM parition.

The 604x model is very fast, and runs around $1100-$1200. Pioneer
is also coming out with a model inbetween the 600 and 604 that
does 350k xfers per sec, more inline with regular CDs.  They
also have an 18 disk version in the works, that will be around $2500
or so.

Thanx Arnie for the information. The drive itself is labeled April 1993 upon
closer inspection. One thing I did discover that the order of channels and
ground on the Mitsumi is opposite from the SB Pro board.You would figure they
would at least give you a cable with the drive that is SB compatible.
Thanks Again, Keith

Tim, You need to cut and resolder the 4 wires at one end of the cable. If you
look in SB manual you will see that the CD IN connector order is
Ground-left-Ground-right channel. The mitsumi's CD out is
Right-Ground-Left-Ground (Reversed). 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.

Before you make fun of somebody's message why not take the time
to read AND UNDERSTAND it first.  It went on to say that for $600
it includes a CASE, and CABLES, and SHIPPING.  I have bought 2 of
these in the past from Terry and I highly recommend Terry Blount
to anybody.

For the sysop looking to provide several or alot of CD's online
these systems cannot be beat.

Now I suppose my message is open to attack, retaliation or
whatever from every person who got out of the wrong side of the
bed this morning.

Hello Jim,

There are 4 guys at work that recently bought computers with CD

Adult, so if you could send it to me, I will see that they get

I have Storm II and was not impressed.  First one i took off line when i
bought some new ones.
PCPIX 2 and 3 are pretty good.  Put together by the Sysops who did the
scans.  We hand picked 110mb each and submitted them for the CD.
Porkware I and II are so-so.  Some duplicates of other disks but pretty
good over all.

good overall disk if you like oriental ladies.  Bunch of my older stuff
before i boight the hp scan jet IIc.  Not my best work.  Files.lst are
not quite bbs ready, used xxxk instead of the actual file size and there
was no space for a date colum.  Took a couple of hours to run them thru
SFFiles.exe (used for Spitfire to manage file areas).
there are some mystry files on the disk that have nothing to do with
asian and orientals, (ie blonds and brunettes)
If it cheap by it.

You need a CD from Kodak called Photo CD Access. It is a windows-based
program so you also need Win 3.1 to run it. You can also access the Photo CDs
from graphics packages such as Corel Draw or Tempra but Photo CD Access is
the cheapest solution. It lists for $35 but you can usually get it fir around
$29 if you look around. Hope this helps.

Okay every dealer LISTEN UP!!!

    I am a SysOp, who enjoys reading this echo to find cd-s that are
reasonably priced.. HOWEVER. When a few of you started advertising "Send
your name and address for free catalog" my mail packets like DOUBLED in
size!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE... Have them call you voice! It is worth $.50 to $1.00
for a catalog to be mailed free! Come on guys, lets stop cluttering up this
echo!!!

Moderator? What do you think...

    (BTW, here about every 3 messages is a catalog request)

Hi,
Back again.  One quick question, do you have, or are you going to get a
QWK type offline mail service.  You have probably the most extensive

I know what you mean.  Wish I could afford to buy and had the time to get one
of those 100 CD changers <g>.  Were you there Monday or Tuesday?  Saw Faye on
Monday.  She was tied up with a customer on Tuesday when I went by.  Saw
Component, Trade Shows, CD Rom Source, Walnut Creek, Max Systems, and a
couple I hadn't seen before I think.  It was most interesting.  That wouldn't
surprise me on the scouts.  It will be interesting to see who comes out on
top in the shareware and adult CD market <g>.

In response to your question on the SoundBlaster card, I believe that
the only CDROM drives you may purchase are made by either Panasonic or
one other brand (I don't recall the other one but it's not yours).  It
was printed on the outside of the SoundBlaster package, however I threw
my package away.

For my first time to pick up and actaully read this echo, I find it to be
quite interesting.

I see msgs reffering to 4 and 6 drive units, etc.
And I see prices discussed on the 6 dive units, but can someone fill me in
on the brand/types of 4 drive units ?

I am about to purchase another one of those Mitsumi 200.00 single, internal
units, however....

Thanks for the help,
Bryan

I have a Adaptec 1540B SCSI 16-Bit busmastering SCSI controller.
It is both SCSI-1 and SCSI-2 compatable, supports upto 7 devices,no
floppy support.  With installation manual, EZ-SCSI drives, printed
technical manual and next day shipping.  In excellent shape.

OS/2 2.1 has support for this card.  At this point, MS has not indicated
which SCSI adapters they will support yet, but you can bet that Adaptec
willbe one of them.

Anyway, I would like $100 for this card, which is probably $20 more
expensive than the cheap Future Domain non-busmastering SCSI HA.

415-586-8140 if you are interested.

I have a Syquest SQ555 internal (white face plate, with the latest BIOS
from Syquest), one 44MB cartridge (currently loaded with GIFs), and a
1540B SCSI host adapter with EZ-SCSI drives, install.manual, and
technical manual that I would like to trade for a SCSI cd-rom.

I will only consider multi-spin drives (I.E., Texel, NEC, Toshiba, etc).

I will cover all shippings costs and everything will be done via next
day express mail so neither of us will have have to wait.

If you are interested, pls leave message or give me a call (collect if
you desire) at 415-586-8140.

BTW, Syquest has about 3 operating hours on it and the 1540B is about a
year old.

They had one of those "hidden" booths, where you had to go behind a
curtain to see their wares - kinda like one of those county fair deals.

Best Buy here in Houston is selling Monarch Notes for $44.95. In

Hey Mike!

Thanks for sending that powerbox disc so fast!!!  Your right......... it is
a good disc!  I was wondering though, why is this disc so much cheaper than
the night owl while its so much higher quality?

Somewere i was reading about a new disc called "cream'n your jeans" or
"cream of the crop" or something like that.... do you know anything about
it?  How mych is it?  Is it worth the money?

I'm making a disk that sounds identical to what you have. Can you leave

Tim:

If I remember correctly, you have to swap the wires in the connector.
One unit has the grounds on the inner two pins, and the other has the grounds
on the outer two pins (I think).  If that is not totally correct, at
least I think you can get the idea what you need to look for when mating
the two units.

Good Luck,

I too am a sysop, and believe me the costs for this echo for many

US.  This is probably true for many sysops who do not live in your

Is that really a better deal?  The reason I ask is that only one disk can be
accessed at a time.  Wouldn't there be problems on a multi-line BBS if two or

more nodes are trying to download a program from different disks?  (Of
course,
I'm talking about downloading directly from the ROM itself too and not having

a program copy the files to disk first.)

Thanks for any info,

Timothy

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.

now, so I have revised my position as "FLD sells only their own products and
the products they love to play with " It's the neatest thing !

I am in love with the CHINON 535 series ROM drive--I want one, NOW :) The
hell with Texel drives....

Hugs,

Does anyone out there know of any CD's on the market that can help teach
someone who knows Spanish and very little English the language?  (English
that is)?  I work with a guy who is willing to buy a PC to help he and his
family to learn English, and I was giving a Demo of Multimedia, and he went
nuts.  That is what he wants, and I told him I'd help him track something
down.

Thanx!

 > Bunch of my older stuff before i boight the hp scan jet IIc.

    Just curious, but where did you get the pictures from? Also, what was
involved in finding a CD company to produce it. I now have access to a HP
Scanjet IIc, own a Logitech Color Handscanner, and I would be interested in
producing a CD. Or, at the very least starting to produce adult GIFs for my
BBS. I am worried about violating copyright laws and stuff.

    Maybe you could netmail me with what is involved and any advice?

    Just thought I would interject... VGA Spectrum 2 (note: TWO) is NOTHING
like VGA Spectrum 1. I was greatly dissapointed by the fact VGA Spectrum 2
had NO pictures... It did contain a lot of great sound files, and a few
classic shareware games (Apogee stuff).

    Just incase you were thinking of buying the 2nd one, don't unless you
like sound related stuff.

Yes, the covers are maked 1.0, but the cd's are 1.5. Guess Toolworks didn't

I am looking to buy an external, fully daisy-chainable, preferably new SCSI

controller.  Please respond here or call [phone].  Thanks.

When you say "much more", are you talking about just the basic LINUX setup,

according to my echo billing program, it cost $0.41 for a full

but then to have the perpetrator of this thread thank each of

the

JB>Somewere i was reading about a new disc called "cream'n your jeans" or
"cream
JB>of the crop" or something like that.... do you know anything about it?
How
JB>mych is it?  Is it worth the money?

Jason,

Thanks very much for the order.  I'm glad you like it;  CD Powerbox is among
our best-selling shareware CD's.  Look for the new CD Winbox soon.  It will
most likely be the best Windows CD to ever come out!  Should have them any
day now.  Sorry, I haven't heard anything about the other CD you mentioned.
"Cream'n your jeans" huh?  Must be a new adult title. <g>

Bye,
.\\ike

Yeah, sorry about that Bob.  I've been uploading to a local board here in
Yakima (not the blank-generating board).  Anyway, his board is prone to
locking up, and lots of my messages haven't been exported lately.  I'm
going back to Dave Reed's board until they get the problems worked out.
Dave's board is much more reliable.  Yes, if and when I get more of those
critters in, I'll be sure to send you one for review.

I was under the impression that audio CD's were a maximum of 79:59. I

I might be interested in the above disk, (Groiliers Encyc $50.00).
DOS Version.

Also...Do you have the new movie disk, (movie Mania or something
like that), with reviews of over 15,000 movies. If so, what is the
price...??? DOS Version.

What would be the shipping price for both disks...??? for one disk...???

Also I would like one of your catalogs.

 >Hi, what is 7TH Guest?
7th Guest is THE CD-Rom game of all time (so far). It is full of video,
sound effects. Actors were hired to do the acting on the Cd. It's supposed to
be one hell of a game where they went all out and took advantage of the
capacity of a Cd. Orchestrated music, etc. This game is supposedly a reason
to buy a Cd-Rom machine.
 >Is it a shareWare cd?
Far from it. It costs at least around $50.

Not sure.  Prices have dropped so much recently, think I would rather trade

Hi Dan,

        I already beat the game and discovered that the game's ending is
incredible, Actually the best game I've ever played!!! Back to your friend on
the stone puzzle. He needs to select the stones that contain one color and
make it to the other side. Hope I helped a little. 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. (it's great!) Need
anymore advice, feel free to write back. I'm glad someone decided to write
back. L8Tr!!!

Mike,

My guess is that you are not at all interested in overseas customers ... not
even with a VISA-card! 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!

JR> Hi Joseph;
JR>         My drive (Internal) has a headset jack on the front.
JR> I unplug
JR>         the speakers from the SB and plug them into the

JR> playback controls
JR>         i.e. stop, pause, play, back-a-track, fwd-a-track,

        If you have a Sound Blaster Pro or better you can look on the back
of you cd drive for a space that reads something like audio out (I can't
remember what it says), after you find that look on you soundblaster card
for a CD IN it is kind of small ┌────┐ about that small
───────────────────────────────────────────>└────┘. Sorry about the grammer
on the last section there I couldn't remember the keys for the lines. Well,
that's it for now:) whoops forgot the rest. Once you find the two areas I
just mentioned connect them with a cable and bravo you have cd audio. If you
do it the above way you can record samples off of CD's too. Well, that it
for now. Later...

I want to get involved in CD ROM. What I need to know is what I need to
get started. I have a 386-40 with a 256 MB hard drive and 4 MB ram. From
what I've observed on this echo I think I will need a Sound Board,
Speakers, and a drive. Is this correct or do I need other things? If
someone could set me straight on this and give me a ballpark figure on
costs, it would be appreciated. Should I get internal or external and
what are the advantages or disadvantage of the two? The CD ROM would be
for personal entertainment only and not for business. I have a 5 1/4 bay
open if it would be better to get and internal.

Fellow BBS'ers
I have recently purchased a group of "very good condition" used
Hitachi CDR 1503S external CD-ROM drives. 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! And include manual,
drivers, and software installation instructions.

If you are interested, I would suggest contacting me immediately
at our BBS, because quanities are limited!

Hi James,
I sell used Hitachi, and that is true. I have someone running 8 drives
on one system with 2 cards and it works great.  We sell the Todd
Enterprizes interface cards, and they are configurable.
Let me know if you need some drives or controller cards.

->

-> 2) You can have 4 Hitachi controllers in the same machine giving you
-> 16 CDROM drives.......

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.  <grin>

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.

Does anybody know where to buy and the price for the Strip Poker VGA CD-ROM
version game? I'm interested in the game and have seen it once a long time
ago but forgot its specific name. It had very good graphics but I don't know
the exact name. If anybody know where to buy the game, please reply. Thanks.

I talked to both of these companies at COMDEX.  The ATI kills the
soundblaster for sound reproduction.....no tin can sounds.....and has
a much more powerful amp that that SB.  If I remember correctly both
of these use wave tables for sound reproduction.  The next one I get
will be the ATI......Heck they gave me a Shirt.

In order not to offend Donald Mackay spoke softly ->


Hello Boris,
    I am looking for some info in the area of CD ROMs.  I really don't
know very much about the CD interface methedology. I am looking for
either a SCSI CD ROM and Adaptec SCSI 2 controller pair or a CD ROM that
is either proprietry or IDE (if there is such a beast) that will work
with OS/2.1. I would like a drive that will work with my Soundblaster
ASP16 board as well.
    What would you suggest and what do you have available? What
kind of performance are we talking about?ttyl /usr/dan

Hello Sabine!

In defense of Mike, he posts from my system, and he does NOT have NetMail
access.  The off-line mail reader he uses does not support it.  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).

I'm sorry you didn't get a reply, and I want you to realize that it's not
Mike's fault.

        Well, I'm not Jerry but I can help. The room that has the stone
floors is easy once you know what the point is, all you have to do is
conplete the puzzle stepping on as many stones as possible when you finish
there should be four stones left (I think). The Telescope isn't a puzzle so
you can't get someone to help you on it, but if your friend keeps having
trouble tell him that if he hasn't used the book for anything else to go to
the book of clues three times and it will instantly be solved. Well, that
covers all of your questions. later...

Am I reading this chart correctly?  I'm not trying to be a smart ***
but looking at pr1 compared to pr1, shouldn't it be 100% duplicate
files since it is the same CD?  Same for pr2, and no7?  The way I'm
reading it, pr1 compared to itself only duplicates .06%, pr2 to itself
.00%, and no7 to itself .06%!  It looks like a very informative chart
but I can't figure out if I'm reading it right!  Please explain b/c I'd
like to use the chart.

Sen.

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.

Yours truly,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, I had originally written a response and quoted part of the comparison
chart by the characters didn't line up the same as the original.  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.

Hi Gordon,

I just called the Las Vegas Convention Center Visitor's Info line and they
told me this years COMDEX is from Nov. 15-19. So that we keep the moderator
happy, I buy and sell a lot of CDROM titles (for private use not
commercially.)
Give me a call if you want when you're in the city 877-4907.

You should be concerned. Unless the works of art/pictures/whatever are
yours, or you have a signed release from the artist allowing you to
reproduce the work you could be fined up to $25,000 PER reproduction
and see 5 years of federal jail time PER reproduction. Scanning Playboy
and posting the pics on your board or on a CDROM is an easy way to meet
lots of lawyers, a judge or two, and maybe a "boyfriend named Bubba"...
If you want to produce an Adult CDROM, you better have your own
original material or material from a reliable source who created the
material.  -Craig

Both are Sound Blaster and Adlib compatible.  After reading the features
list of both cards, I would recommend the ATI.   It is also the one that
my Mitsumi distributor has chosen to bundle with their Multimedia drive

G'day Mike:

In a msg of <Sunday June 06 1993>, Mike Shannon writes to All:

     <sigh> Despite the fact that no one seems to want to give out any
information on the cds they advertise in this forum, I'm going to ask yet
again for some filling in on the contents of cds that look interesting.

     After all, if I can be interested in the contents of the disk, I MIGHT
BUY IT [not so subtle hint].

 MS>  Bible Library.................31.00
 MS>  Bibles & Religion.............16.50

     What can you tell me about these?

 MS>  CIA World Fact Book...........24.00

     Hmmm...this looks interesting, too.  Anything good here?

 MS>    Shakespeare...................17.50

     Now this REALLY would have been helpful about a year back.  In any
event, I still might be interested in it.  What's on this?  Just his complete
works, and if so, would there be anything there that makes it superior to the
paper version?

     Eagerly hoping I'll get a response.

Malcolm,

Thanks very much for the order, but on your original fax, you requested
a "free" CD to be sent with the order.  The only "free" CD we've ever
offered was our Starvector 208mb CD that we were advertising as free with
any order over $100, but we stopped advertising that particular CD over
3 months ago when we ran out of stock.  In your 2nd fax, you asked why
we didn't include the $6 shareware CD.  The reason is that you requested
our "free" CD with your order, which we haven't offered for 3 months.
There was no mention made of the $6 promotional CD in your order.  If you
would still like the disc, it would be $6 + $4.67 Air Mail to Africa.
Let me know.

Hope this clears up your questions.

Later,
.\\ike

Stephen,

What's "hosed up" about it?  I've sold around 40 of these, and not a single
complaint so far.  The sister CD "Shareware 93" is another story however.
That disc is missing several files AND directories, and I'm now
liquidating them at my cost and telling my customers up front that it does
have some definite problems.  Haven't heard anything negative about Games
93 until now, so can you be more specific than just "hosed up"?

If you sent Netmail to Dave Reed's BBS, I didn't receive it because I have
been calling his board infrequently in the past month, and have been
devoting more time to a local board in my town.   We charge actual Air Mail
rates on shipping, which are:  1 lb: $10.70, 2 lbs: 16.70, 3 lbs: 22.70,
etc.  (Keep adding $6 per add'l pound).  Insurance is usually around $3 - $4.

We do take VISA w/ no surcharge, and can ship same day.  Hope this answers
your questions, and sorry about not replying . . . I wasn't ignoring you, I
just never received your Netmail since it wasn't sent to the board I call
most often.

BJ>Great job, Mike! (Even if the figures are a bit suspect - shouldn't the
BJ>diagonal be either 100% or "N/A" or something besides what it shows?)

Bob,

No, the "diagonal" shows the percentage of internal dupes within a given
CD.  Example below:

     PR1   PR2   NO7   NO8   SS1   SS2   MON   SC2   SV1   CDP   SWO
   +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
PR1| .06%| .23%| 1.8%| 6.5%| 3.2%| 7.2%| 7.6%| 6.5%| .70%| 2.1%| 4.5%|
   +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
PR2| .23%| .00%| .09%| .43%| .34%| 2.5%| 1.7%| .85%| .40%| .18%| .19%|

In this example, you can see that Pier1 has a .06% internal duplicate
percentage.  In other words, the program not only shows dupe % between
different CD's, it also shows the percentage of duplicate files
WITHIN each CD.  This is what the diagonal is showing.  Notice that
the only CD to have 0% onboard dupes is Pier 2!  Lovely disc.

Are my figures still suspect? <g>

BJ>You've given some real added value to the shareware CD buyers!

Thanx Bob, I always look forward to your messages when others start
congregating on the "bash Mike" bandwagon.  If I ever become a
comedian, I'm going to hire you to sit in my audiences! <ggg>

This is true, but you can have up to 6 controller cards in one machine

PJ> Hi, what is 7TH Guest? It's the most amazing game I have ever seen.
The requirements are very high.  The recommendations are even higher.  It
comes on two CDs, some people said it's over a gig, but it takes 5MB on the
HD. There is a VHS tape that shows you how they made it and it's like they
were making a movie.  Actors, sound, music, acting sets, etc.

PJ> Is it a shareWare cd? No.  But you can buy it for under $50.

You don't _need_ a sound board, but they are nice to have. You cannot have
Multimedia with out one. For speakers, you can use your TV speakers (if it's
one of those fancy Stereo ones with inputs) or your stereo, or just plain
little speakers or headphones.
 >someone could set me straight on this and give me a ballpark figure on
Around $150 for a new soundboard with Cd-Rom interface, and $200-$300 for a
good Cd-Rom that will hook into it.
 >costs, it would be appreciated. Should I get internal or external and
 >what are the advantages or disadvantage of the two? The CD ROM would be

 >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.

Hi,
Norton (Syscamitic... what ever) has a great caching program that not only
caches cd-rom drives, but many other drives as well. I'm not sure of the
price or even the name as a matter of fact, but take a look around this echo,
your bound to find some one talking about it.

If i find out more, i'll tell you.

Frank,

Sorry, I should have made that more clear.  The dupe percentages for
CD's compared against themselves indicates the amount of duplicate files
WITHIN those CD's.  The program I used not only shows the percentage of
dupes between two DIFFERENT CD's, but shows the amount of INTERNAL
duplication for a given CD.  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! <g>

Thanks for the reply; I'll be sure to clarify that point when I post the
chart again.

Later,
.\\ike

I am the publisher of Busty Babes and I know there is a company called
Bestware, that has some left--They are located in Belgium. This disc is out
of print now because of multiple lawsuits, so get one while you can because
they are tough to find and the prices are going up on them because of there
value now--

Good Luck,

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.

Thanks !

No, no such disc exists--Keep in mind most all adult stories go uncensored,
and many of the stories involve incest/beastiality etc--Please take the time
to screen them if you plan to distribute them-No publisher wants to read
hundreds of stories to screen out those that are Federally Obscene, much to
time consuming.

Just some friendly advice--

WD>>         ANYBODY HAVING A REAL BUSINESS SHOULD HAVE AN 800 #....

I agree that transporting catalog requests do clutter things a bit, but I am
a sysop as well as publisher of CD's, and I look at mail tossing as part of
the job--I carry thousands of messages to other sysops in packets I know
nothing about--They surely aren't interests of mine, but I carry the packets
nevertheless because that is what a sysops does--Like it or not.

It would be nice, if this echo would have the dealers provide phone numbers
so that requests can be made another way besides in this echo--But, as a
business woman, I *REFUSE* to have an 800 number so that I can pay .33 cents
per minute for the type of individual that opts to spend my money instead of
putting some effort forth and reading documentation--

When distribs set up 800 numbers for orders, often times folks will use that
number for other things--So, IMHO, judging successful companies with 800
numbers is a little bias :)

Wish that Maximus BBS better supported CDRoms instead of having to use up
your harddrive with CDRom-related Files.bbs's?  Wish you didn't have to FB
Maximus everytime you switched CDs?  Wish you could switch CD's in a minute
instead of 10 minutes?  Wish you could lock certain CDRom files out in the
cold so users can't download them?

Want a CDrom Door that will do fast global searches of files/text and allow
users to tag files?

Wish you had a CDRom door that would automatically adjust Maximus's
USERS.BBS to show user activity on a CDRom and have the benefits of
side-stepping Maximus's clumsy handling of CDRoms?


Well then, friend, this is for you!  Call New Century BBS [phone] 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 [phone].

 WD>        AWAY CASH CUSTOMERS WHO GET DAM TIRED OF "SEND CATALOG TO
 WD>        ANYBODY HAVING A REAL BUSINESS SHOULD HAVE AN 800 #....


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. End of thread from this end.

Personally, I didn't like Giffy Gold, and it's not strictly an "R" disk
to boot. I think you'd be a lot happier with one of the other "lingere"
CDs that many of the dealers here offer. I don't have a recommendation
on "G" CDs, but Boris Osadciw, Mike Shannon, Dave Reed, and others can
set you on the right path.

Nope! You've cleared that up. I suspect others had a similar

tagged with the same title - too much to ask, I guess :( .  Well, if Lee
Noga's right, we won;t have to put up with re-hashed files much longer.

I agree.  I just got it too, after seeing someone elses VGASectrum I.
It is parked on a shelf, back in it's original box.  Took about 5
minutes to decide it wasn't worth putting on the BBS, though it would
make a great basisi for a system demo in a store or something.  There
are a lot of nice animations.  That just sin't what I bought it for!

changes and "never the twain shall meet" JUST LOCKUP!  Clint

>>    Boris,  What is the price you would charge for a Toshipb 3401
>>    internal Pro Audio Spectrum card, and all controllers and
>>    cables necc. for both music cd and cdRom sound, as well as
>>    some inexpensive shielded speakers.  thanks Scott

Your cost would be $659. for a straight SCSI interface system and
$759. for a bus address scsi interface. This would give you all of the
above plus a FREE cd on us.

If your interested, call us at 216-225-3263 and we'll be happy to discuss
it further.

Ok, well part of what your asking for is not available in any format.
But, the best system for the your $$ would be a Texel as it offer's great
value and reliabilty as well as performance and compatiablity.

The Texel will work with the Adaptec as well as OS/2 2.1 and Windows NT.

As for the SBPro, you can only use the audio portion of the system as it
will not support the Texel and any of the major scsi systems directly.

Hope this helps, if not, your welcome to call us direct at 216-225-3263
anytime and we'll be happy to assist you further.

        I have really been wanting to buy this game, and, infact,
        actually had taken it up to the register to buy it when I
        noticed the box said it requires an SVGA monitor w/ 1 meg RAM
        -is this true? If so, it seems a real dissapointment for those
        of us who don't have SVGA cards ( I, personally, can't see a
        damn bit of difference between the two..), and this would, along
        w/ LInks 386, be only the second game i've ever seen that had
        such a requirement...Thanks ahead of time...


... Mary had a little RAM -- only about a MEG or so.

Lots more means there are something like 34,000+ files on the CD-ROM.  That
includes kermit, uucp, sound card support, Ghostscript, TeX, xmodem, zmodem,
DOS emulation...  I think you are getting the picture.  The total is
something like 245MB for both the binaries and source for them.

Quoting Rick Ashworth's message to Mark Smitka, in pertinent part:

RA}I'm too tired to figger that out, so I'll take that as a compliment! <

I found humor in the fact that you were offering the Bible as a trade for
T7G. No offense intended. :-)

RA}Actually, I already have T7G, but I'll always try to scavenge extras
RA}for friends around here!  They're all jealous, and local outlets RA}are
sold out, except for Babbages for $79!

Got mine at a local show for $49. For you or anyone else interested, you
might try MicroLink at [phone]. They list it for $50 in their flyer.

Hi all... I have a Sony CDRom, and all of a sudden, the darn thing keeps
spitting out the disks. It won't let the caddy and the disk stay in the
drive.
When, on the rare occasion it does, when I try and access the drive, it says
that the drive won't respond. Any suggestions? It's only happening with the
Adult ROM that I use on my bbs, not with other roms. Could it be that the
disk
is defective/scratched and the laser won't read it????

Please help!

Thanks in advance,
Paul

Any comments on it?  Any other recomendations?

Regarding Shareware CD-Roms and the problems to be faced with
publishing such a disk in the future:  What is it that shareware
authors are sueing over.  It would seem to me that they have more to
gain than to lose if their product is distributed.  I can understand
that they get upset over these stupid publishers that remove files
from the distribution archive.....maybe they should make a statement
more boldly telling the public of the possible fines for distributing
a tampered archive.....and not be so picky with requiring a release.
I know of some authors that will never be included in a ROM....based
upon their response time's to messages of a technical nature left for
them on their BBS's.  Well, please enlighten me.

All I have is FAO I.  I am not all that interested in graphic X stuff, so I
find this of limited use.  I would like to trade it for a disk with more
plain nudes on it.  Any suggestions?

Hello Mike, Have you had  any luck tracking down those three cds you sent me
on May 21st, I still haven't received them.

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.

If you wish to reach me by voice you can call 519-250-9031, or send me a
netmail message at 1:246/14.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info.. however.. the disk gets more compliments from more
folks than many others..  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? <grin>

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! <G>

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! <grin>

CR>files since it is the same CD?  Same for pr2, and no7?  The way I'm

Carlos,

Sorry - I wasn't very clear here.  The identical CD comparisons above
reflect the percentage of dupes WITHIN a given CD.  I've re-posted the
chart in this packet, with a line added to make it more understandable.

Bye,

BJ>interpretation, tho'. Boy, I wish that program was smart enough to work
BJ>on image CDs! I guess it might as long as the same image was always
BJ>tagged with the same title - too much to ask, I guess :( .  Well, if Lee
BJ>Noga's right, we won;t have to put up with re-hashed files much longer.
BJ>Can't wait for that day <GGG>.

Yeah, you're right.  With all the file renaming that goes on with adult
titles, a direct comparison might not be very accurate, but it would
still be fun to do!  If I can find another couple of free hours, I
might do it anyway. <g>

Tim,

He sent Netmail to Dave's board which I never received, so I guess that's
why he's angry.  No problem with our service, just our communication! <g>
