It doesn't seem to be the serial # that DOS 4.01 checks but the

|
LABEL. I have had many reboots because it asked for the LABEL
|
|
of the disk I had in it which differed from the 'present' one.

|
|
|
|
The June 1991 issue of Boardwatch magazine has a rather
|
|
long article about this Prodigy issue.
|
|
The article states that Prodigy is NOT hard drive snooping.
|
|
Rather that the file STAGE.DAT is being used as a sudo-sub
|
|
directory. Problem is that most of this file/directory
|
|
contains NOTHING. So the disk's FAT shows one large file,
|
|
that is almost empty, but since whatever data that WAS on the
|
|
disk and erased is still ON the disk (Only the pointers have
|
|
changed.) this data is then included in the STAGE.DAT file.
|
|
The BoardWatch article goes into much more detail. It might
|
|
be worth a look-see if anyone is interested.
|
|
Board watch is NOT available through any mas market bookstore.
|
|
The only place I EVER see it at is the Book Market right across
|
|
from Sears at 6-corners here in Chicago.

The "raspy" tone (I call it "shhhhhhh") is the fact that it has

recognized 1200 or 2400...

Anyone got any ideas?

horrendously more complex than anticipated, work on the article has been

to JAMES KARAGANIS re: R/C PROGRAMMING
|
|
|
|
What's "great" as a reference for one person is so-so for the next. I've
|
|
found the best thing is just to peruse a large collection such as Kroch's
|
|
in the Loop. That said, my primary introduction to C was "Turbo C: The
|
|
Complete Reference." (Nearly identical versions exist for Quick C, etc.)
|
|
My favorite "general" C reference--when the compiler manuals themselves
|
|
prove insufficient--s The Waite Group's "Turbo C Bible." Among other
|
|
features, I value the cross-reference chart for each function, indicating
|
|
whether the same (or comparable) fxn exists in several other C compilers.
|
|
Lastly, the book I used as a basis for jumping beyond the basics to more
|
|
"sophisticated" techniques (TSRs, etc.) without a doubt is "Systems
|
|
Programming in Turbo C" (a somewhat misleading title). Though I've heavily
|
|
modified and expanded the techniques therein, the book provided an
|
|
exceptionally lucid explanation of tricky problems--with a collection of
|
|
well-integrated, comprehensive code to handle most common problem areas.

We have several Dells where I work. They have been faithful for the most

part. When one did develop a problem the company was quick to arrange for
|
|
repairs. The only thing I did not like on mine (System 200) was the
|

keyboard. It was too soft for me. I have never had a problem with it.
