to ALL re: ONE BBSCON
|
|
|
|
Just got back from ONE BBSCON (the ONE means Online Networking Exposition).
|
|
This is a BBS related convention. Last year, 1000 attended, this year, just
|
|
under 2000. Next year, they predict 3500! I think it will be at Atlanta
|
|
The program started of an opening session, with Jim Warren as keynote
|
|
speaker (he has been involved in the industry for many years - Dr. Dobbs
|
|
Jorunal, Micro Times, Electronic Design News, etc).
|
|
It then went into optional sessions, two every AM and two every PM, with
|
|
some "Birds of a Feather" to round it off in the evening for topics come
|
|
up with after the original program was created.
|
|
There was a very large exhibit hall, with everything from modem mfgrs
|
|
(US Robotics, Hayes, Supra, Zoom, Xyzel or whatever that strange one is,
|
|
etc), to all the BBSs, multi-port board vendors, vendors hooking to the
|
|
Internet, PageSat with their Internet news feed by satellite, (and a
|
|
competitor giving more - Ilink, Fido, etc, but at $30/month right away,
|
|
and not $30/month AFTER 2 YEARS like PageSat).
|
|
I gave a session on the BBS history, kind of expectedly lightly attended -
|
|
it was up against Dr. Vinton Cerf, the internet inventor, doing a big spiel
|
|
on the internet.
|
|
It was held at the old but nice Broadmoor hotel in Colorado Springs. They
|
|
picked up my hotel bill, but I had to do my own airfare.

Hi all,
|
|
I'm new to the modem and shortly intend to obtain a 96/96 for business pur
|
|
poses. I'm interested in Internet and Usenet etc. I want to learn UNIX
|
|
and expand my computer knowlege. I'm formerly an Atari user (64k-8bit/4meg
|
|
16bit) Clones since they became afordable. I have Unix 3.2 but need some
|
|
info about whether I can format a hard drive half Unix and half Dos, of if
|
|
I have to dedicate a machine to Unix. Please pass on any info. Tnx.

|
|
to ANDY SHAPIRO re: R/DBIV?
|
|
|
|
This is a little late to join the conversation, but I think I have what
|
|
were looking for. Along with the dBASE IV upgrade (from 1.5 to 2.0) for
|
|
$99, I also bought the compiler for $199. This may sound like a good
|
|
deal, but wait, there's more.
|
|
The Borland dBASE Compiler gives the option of a full, standalone .EXE
|
|
file, and a "compact" .EXE requiring the presence of two .RTL (runtime
|
|
library) files. In the application I bought the compiler for there are
|
|
seven .PRG files, totaling about 31K. The "compact" .EXE file is over
|
|
180K, and the .RTL files are 150K and 1.5M. That's right, almost two
|
|
megabytes of program files to run this compiled application.
|
|
Furthermore, I could not get the programs to run on a machine with only
|
|
2M of RAM. Talk about FatWare!
|
|
That said, the compiler does what I bought it for. It allows me to run
|
|
multiuser applications on a network without buying multiple copies of
|
|
the development system. It's not a speed demon, but it's reasonably
|
|
fast under Novell 3.11, and if you have a browse screen up and somebody
|
|
else changes a record, after a (settable) interval your screen will be
|
|
automatically updated.
|
|
Still want your programs compiled? I'll be happy to do it for you.

to MARTY CONROY re: R/NEW USER
|
|
|
|
I'll try to talk to Randy Suess, co-founder (with me) of CBBS, to see if he
|
|
has an answer on your half-DOS half-Unix issue. Ideally, your Unix might
|
|
have a DOS emulator that allows running DOS directly - though I'm not sure
|
|
how well they do in a more complex environment - such as I don't think you
|
|
can run Windows since Unix would already be the "protected mode" op sys in
|
|
your box.
|
|
Could you tell me what you mean by "Unix 3.2"? Not sure that's sufficient
|
|
to know what you have - i.e. is it DELL Unix 3.2, or what?
|
|
As to internet/usenet, etc, that's a complex issue. One person to contact
|
|
if you really want that direct access, is Karl Deninger. Here's a signature
|
|
line from him from a recent message on Chinet, Randy's Unix system. (Hmmm,
|
|
you might want to get on chinet, a place to ask your Unix questions, etc -
|
|
the guest access number is (312) 283-0559, I think. But $50/yr helps.
|
|
Here's that Deninger signature line:
