If I can do it, then another person can do it; if tw=r}o can do it, you can do it. What has this to do with ATARI? ......EVERYTHING! AS an ATARI 8-bit owner/user ov=s}er a decade, listening/reading pros and cons of the ATARI world, I'm convinced many people WANT ATARI to fail. AT=t}ARI computer articles and publications have dwindled. Club memberships have shrunk. A negative virus infect=u}s ATARI world. This has been going on for years yet we, the ATARI family, still survive. WHY? My explanation =v}is ATARI computers can do many things easier, faster, better for and for less money. Remember, POWER WITHOUT=w} THE PRICE? Then why aren't more people using ATARI computers? Some people claim lack of advertising by =x} ATARI corporation. Maybe so, but I believe best advertising is "Word of Mouth"-- each ATARI owner/user is a salesm=y}an. How many people have you introduced to ATARI? How many units have you helped to be sold? Are you proud of =z} your ATARI computer? Did you study to learn everything about your ATARI computer and software? Do you tre={}at it professionally, as it deserves? Therein lies a problem, then! Some individuals who bought ATARI comp=|}uter and programs neglected the manuals. All computers are DUMB machines. Sitting before keyboard they expect c=}}omputer to "Do what I tell you!". The uneducated, failing to learn their system and software, became frust=~}rated and publically blamed ATARI computer for their failure. It's not fair. ATARI computers do a fi=}ne job. This is attested by those of us who own, learned, and use the software in a professional way. Man=}y clubs have stalwart members--users, programmers, technicians--who frequently write great articles for newsletter=}s. Many programmers are still with us. We still have ATARI publications, mostly from users groups. (Newsletters sh=}ould be mailed to editors so informative, positive articles are shared via publications). Knowledge develops=} confidence. How many ATARI clubs do you belong to? How many publications do you read? Are you becoming more effi=}cient with your system and software? Is your knowledge shared at meetings, in newsletters, on BBS? When fin=}ished with newsletter and magazine do you waste them by throwing them in the garbage, or share with others--family, ne=}ighbor, co-workers. How about donating copies to school or public library, leave them in a doctor-dentist office, =} post them on public bulletin boards, etc. This is advertising. Don't wait for others to do what you can do yourself.=} Negativeness destroys ATARI. Here's a scenario: A proud owner/user tells his co-worker about his ATARI computer which=} he has learned to use expertly. Co-worker is impressed and asks questions which are nicely answered by the knowlegab=}le ATARI user who does a fine demo with a favorite program. (This is one reason why we must practice demos at m=}eetings). Then comes the downfall. ATARI owner gives co-worker a copy of a club newsletter. Among the many articles=} describing hardware and software is one by someone complaining that ATARI is dying because "Sam, the Corporation" =}etal are not doing enough advertising; dealers and software producers are deserting ATARI, a lot of other negativ=}e comments. If you were that co-worker, would you still be interested in an ATARI computer? ACT II: Another =}co-worker is invited to your ATARI club meeting. Questions/answers and demos fascinate him. Then some officer(s), memb=}er(s) echo the negativeness from ACT I. If you were that co-worker would you be enthused to buy an ATARI computer and=} join up? Naysayers are like the nagging spouse. It makes an unhappy marriage, family. Nagging drains desire to achie=}ve. A family, club, community requires support, compliments--stressing the good things, nice things. I want =} more of this in our publications, at club meetings on BBS to perk up ATARI world and assume the leadership we =}truly deserve. People spreading discouragement are not embarassed to say negative things about us--about ATARI. =} We who appreciate our ATARI computers must not be ashamed to defend ourselves and let them know we have a good thin=}g, WE ARE ATARI FAMILY! Many computer breakthroughs and advances are the result of ATARI technology by co=}mpany and users. Learn what they are. Above all, thoroughly know your ATARI computer capabilities and dev=}elop expertise with your favorite programs. When among people talking about computers, be proud, let them know y=}ou use an ATARI and explain, show them a demo. Tell us also in an article to this newsletters editor. ATARI PC syste=}ms (hardware & software) are affordable, can do any job. Programs--free, share, commercial--are myriad. Our club li=}brarys have about a thousand disks loaded with programs just for the 8-bit. Ads, catalogs teem with 16 and 32 bit =}programs. So what's the problem with moaners and groaners? Some owners bought ATARI stock to make a bonanza =} profit but became alarmed when stock price dropped. Their sell off accelerated the down trend. They blame AT=}ARI Corporation for their loss. Like gamblers they lost a bet now want their money back. Since when is the Stock Ma=}rket a SURE bet? Maybe negativeness is "TRICKY DICKY" dirty tricks played on ATARI users and a lot have been=} suckered in- -especially those who did not learn how to avail full capability of ATARI computer and programs, and got=} rid of their systems to KEEP UP WITH THE JONES! Who said that the JONES knew what they were doing? =} EPILOG I enjoy a my 8 BIT computer and motorcycle. My classic ATARI 8-bit accomplishes for me=} what others want from their megabyte, megabuck computers. My $500 Kawasaki takes me to places visited by =}people riding $100,000 automobiles. In the rain I wear a wet suit. On snow covered roads I use public transpo=}rtation. For $500 it's another Spartan bargain. THATS ONE MANS OPINION ANYWAY!

It may be that the ST'ers are beginning to feel the same way. In spite of all the factors that consipA}ire against them, these 8 BIT machines and their operators persist. In fact, the persistence is accompanied byA} new developments all the time. It's truly amazing. This batch of reviews will bear me out. DACE Desktop for March/AA}pril, 1994-- JOHN DICKERSON's 8-bit Corner describes the demonstration of the PC XFormer at the Sacramento show. A} This emulator, by Branch Always Software, is now out in shareware as version 2.0, which partially emulates an 800 oA}n certain MS-DOS machines. Version 3.0, which will be released commercially, will do full emulation of 130XE'A}s on that same series of MS- DOS machines. Since these machines include notebooks, it will be possible to havA}e a "portable" 8-bit with you at all times! John also describes how his system has become a real power system with a A}1 Meg Newell upgrade and two 3.5" drives. John also speaks of using MyDos and using a patch to AW+ that allows it tA}o be used with MyDOS. He also sings the praises of CREATER.ARC, which the OHAUG library also sports and which isA} included with several OHAUG disks. (FR)ANTIC for June, 1994 -- President RUSSELL STOWE's Presidents Corner cA}olumn gives a good overview of the club's activities. In it, he mentions how AAAUA member LOU KELLEY will giA}ve a demonstration on transferring files from IBM to Atari 8-bit. Cross-platform file transfers are a particulaA}r interest of mine. I've done them using several methods, and I wish Russell had given us more details. Later in the isA}sue, Russell also presents a short type-in program that puts subliminal messages on the screen. JAMES G. MARTIN revA}iews Battlezone for the XE. James feels that this version was poorly done, but defends it on two counts. First, heA} reminds us that Atari was working on a very thin profit line at the time, and second, he feels that the action in A}the game more than makes up for the primitive graphics. The Back to Basics column discusses common disk-drive error cA}odes and methods to correct the errors they represent. MANUEL GARCIA tops off the issue with an interesting Editors NotA}es column. SLCC Journal for July, 1994 -- There's no article of note in this issue, but there is one column tA}hat should be always read by all OHAUG members, since we are now receiving the SLCC DOM. BOB SCHOLAR's excA}ellent description of the SLCC DOM provides the background on how these disks are put together. This month, for exampleA}, Bob tells us how he got a program to run in what seems like too few sectors on the disk! (FR)ANTIC for July, 1994A} -- LOUS KELLEY's article, "AAAUA - Evolution or Dissolution" is right on the mark. It opens up an area of discussiA}on that many clubs have faced and resolved to their own individual preference. namely, in the light of contA}inued shrinkage of the user base and of commercial sources of hardware and software, should user groups go cross-platfoA}rm? Should they look to mergers with user groups in other platforms to accomplish this? Read the article. It A} also answers a question left over from the last issue: What method did Lou use to transfer files from the IA}BM to his Atari? Lou also gives a review of something called Atari Works from Page-6 Software. (Note that this iA}s NOT the sophisticated AtariWorks program for STE, TT and Falcon so long-awaited and now shipping with the FA}alcon.) Lou found the word- processor in the Page-6 offering to be very similar to SpeedScript 3.0, but came witA}h no documention or help files. Lou could only guess at the features he was missing by not having those files. He alsoA} found that if the word processor is selected, you can't exit it except by rebooting -- a serious problem in wA}hat is supposed to be integrated application software. JAMES MARIIN reviews Pong. Adrienne Garza writes a column onA} commonly-used BBS abbreviations and Emotions (Smiles). Russell Stowe offers a type-in program called HypnosA}is. A reprint of a Pinellas County ACE article, entitled, "Modem to Modem", is reprinted. The PACESetter for JulyA}, 1994 -- Speaking of Pinellas County, you just have to see what they've done with the cover of this issue! IA}t's been beautifully, if laboriously, hand-colored and decorated for Independence Day. Inside, the theme conA}tinues with Editorial Comments, and other articles. This entire issue is well-worth reading with a type-in cA}alled Traffic Jam and another one caled Smart Shopper by JEAN BROKAW, and humorous articles, too numerous to menA}tion by Jean and others. A very well done newsletter!! The DACE Desktop for July/August,1994 -- Don't look now......A} but this issue is completely lacking in 8-bit articles. So, why mention it? (I regularly pass by newsletters tA}hat have nothing of 8-bit interest and don't mention them in my review.) Well, there is a page devoted to our ClaA}ssic Ataris, but DANIEL A. GALANT, used the page to call for articles. DACE Desktop prints 8-bit articles infrequentlA}y, but at least interest is shown in keeping this practice alive. XIO3 for July/August, 1994 -- GCACE hasn't giA}ven up on Classic Ataris either -- not by a long shot. Read Atari 8-Bit Affairs by ROWLAND GRANT to get the latest A}information on the new AC, FTe's Mars 8 and SpartaDos 3.2G, Textpro 5.20, PC XFormer, and JOHN PICKEN's XL2 prograA}m to make a 130XE behave like 2 800XLs. (Its in the OHAUG Library, of course. SLCC Journal for August, 1994 -- Be suA}re to read DAVID A. PATERSON's article (reprinted from NACAM disk of 4/92) about device handlers. It's probably A}the best article I've seen on this topic. However, be aware that you will need to know something about assembly-laA}nguage programming to fully appreciate the article. While in the newsletter, don't forget to check out BOB SCHOLAA}R's article describing the SLCC DOM. Remember, we get those disks from SLCC for our Library. The SAGE Scroll for AA}ugust, 1994 -- No, this issue doesn't have any 8- bit-specific articles. What it does have is an article called, "NewA} Phone Pheatures" that's bound to provoke a chuckle or two. SAGE still gets 8- bit articles out from time to time, A}but this just isn't the time. I hope next time will be the time! (FR)ANTIC for August, 1994 -- The question raised iA}n the last issue of (FR)ANTIC has been answered via a membership survey and further reports of club activities. A}AAAUA will remain an 8-bit club, while going ahead with cross-platform demonstrations. This is similaA}r to the path taken by LIAUG, and I applaud it. Such a policy clearly demonstrates the versitility and utB}ility of the Classic Atari while showing that it is also capable of working with other computers. The Back to BaB}sic column provides a handy list of BASIC keywords and their abbreviations with a promise to explain them in B} the next issue. LOUIS KELLEY continues with his AAAUA -- Evolution or Dissolution saga. In it, he mentions all of tB}he negative comments that AAAUA members made when asked if they wanted a two-platform club or a merger with an IBM clB}ub. JOHN HARDIE's name came up as an example. But, LOU is plugging away at the theme of transfers of data betB}ween Ataris and IBMs, because he feels that there are very practical reasons to be able to do this. Read the articB}le for some specific techniques and programs that accomplish the transfers via null- modem cable. MANUEB}L GARCIA devotes a column to MICHAEL BENNETT's major league baseball cap icons for Print Shop. I have those iconsB}. They're great! RUSSELL GIBSON describes how he created a new handler for the CX- 85 Numeric Keypad. SPACE COWBB }OY promises a list of 54 BBSs in the United States and New Zealand that regularly exchange messages. JAMES G. MARTB }IN reviews Miniature Golf Plus from ANTIC Magazine. There's also a short type-in program, a graphics demo. The B } PACESetter for August, 1994 -- A STEPHEN MOFFITT review of Crossword Magic caught my eye. The program was reprinted fB }rom several newsletters and magazines. What was interesting is that this old chestnut of a program, which I B }love, is now in public domain. Why wasn't I informed VITO RAIA relates how he sold an anti-computer educator onB} the use of computers with a simple demonstration of what his 8-bit can do. There are other small, buB}t interesting articles scattered throughout this issue. Please read it. SLCC Journal for September, 1994 --B} The only thing of note in this article, aside from the reprint of DALE WOOSTER's article on Atari ClassicB}s which was reprinted in so many of the newsletters I reviewed last time. So, why mention it again? Well, SLCC toB}ok the article off OHAUG's Newsletter Disk, where ALEX PIGNATO added his comments. BOB SCHOLAR then commentB}ed on Alex's comments. THAT's what I want you to see. PACESetter for September, 1994 -- This issue acknowleB}dges ALEX's contribution of several program disks Pinellas County ACE is always looking for programs they may not havB}e in their library, and if you have one that should be shared, feel free to send them a copy. Read the DEMOS cB}olumn. ROBERT HAMILTON was at it again, demonstrating copy programs, the "undelete" feature of DOS 2.5, appendingB} files, and merging in AW. All of these are techniques with which we in OHAUG should be familiar. VITO A. RAIB}A's column, The Information Revolution is not to be missed. KATHY SEVERANCE contributes a quiz that we all shouldB} take.

You will enjoy experR^}imenting with this program and learn at the same time. We will use two FOR-NEXT loops to alter the volume and pR_}itch variables of the SOUND command. You will be prompted to type the required data. The program will then execuR`}te using your data and you will hear the sound you created. Here is sample data for you to use to get the feel ofRa} the program: Respond to the prompts with Dist 10, Pitch 20, L1 from 15, L1 to 0, L1 step -0.5, L2 from 3, L2 to 0, Rb}L2 step -1. Notice how the sound seems to vibrate as it fades. If you want to hear it again, just hit the option key.Rc} You may want to use that sound in a program you write. At this point you will notice a Basic subroutine is diRd}splayed near the top of the screen. Make note of it and any other interesting sounds you come up with. Start Re}a library of subroutines. When you're ready to try a new sound, hit the START key. After you've used and studied tRf}his program for a while, you will begin to realize that the variety of possible sounds is almost endless. Now consider Rg}this. You have been using only one of the four voices available. The four voices can be used at the same time. You cRh}ontrol the volume, pitch, and distortion of each voice.

This one gives some alternative uses foj}r the 810 drive! Reprinted by the OL' HACKERS AUG, NY ----------------------------------- Ten Top 810 Tips j} ---------------- 1)Why not paint your 810 disk drive in garish colours to create a trendy new- age ornament. 2)j}Fitted with a small pair of wheels your 810 disk drive would make a rather nifty skateboard. 3)Your 810 can alsoj} be used as a lucrative way of making money. Simply take your 810 to a dark street corner (preferably at night) j}and club the first person to walk by over the head with your disk drive. Whilst your victim is unconscious it sj}hould be easy to rifle their belongings and to take anything of value, therefore earning yourself a tidy sum of monej}y. 4)Painted gold and worn on a large chain around your neck your 810 would make a great medallion, just like the j}one that bloke out of The Bee-Gees wears (you know, the one with the beard.) 5)Why not buy your 810 a dog colj}lar and take it for walks in the park, it is much cleaner than a poodle or German shepherd, so there with be no j}need for any messy pooperscoopings. You can even give your 810 a name! How about Rover, or Scamp and just think how mj}uch you would save on petfood. 6)Fit your 810, as a buoy anchor, or in place of cement shoes! 7)Draped with a prettj}y table cloth, your 810 could easily seat a family of four for an intimate and informal meal. 8)Why not conceal a sj}mall clock inside your 810 disk drive, wrap it in brown paper and then post it to a nervous friend (?). Just think j}of all the laughs you will have when your 'friend' soils his trousers and faints, mistaking it for a j} letter bomb. (Because this joke is a bit sick only do it on April Fools Day! Or to somebody you don't like) 9)If youj} are a little short around Christmas then why not wrap your 810 in baking foil, douse it in glue, and then stick j}lots of toilet rolls, washing-up bottles, tinfoil etc on it and then give it a young relative, you can't stand, for a j}present. Tell him it's a space station or a teenage mutant ninja phonebox, you'll be REMEMBERED, and savej} money too! (Details for building this terrific gift can be obtained by sending a SAE to TGR). (?) (Ed. Whoever or j} whatever TGR is?). 10)Okay if you are really desperate (like I am for tips) then why not use your 810 disk drive aj}s a disk drive. (Although you can't use it for enhanced density and you can't load TGR). (?) Alj}ias Maximus (Ed. Hint, get yourself upgraded, there are many great 1050 buys around!) */\/\*h} =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= FAMOUS QUOTES THROUGH THE YEARS!"I found the original of my hell in the world which n}we inhabit." - DANTE (1265-1321)"I live on hope, and that I think do all who come into this world." n} - ROBERT BRIDGES (1844-1930)"The pot calls the kettle black." - CERVANTES, 'Don Quixote'"Health is not a condition n}of matter, but of Mind." - MARY BAKER EDDY (1821-1910)"No really great man ever thought himself so." - WILLIAM HAn}ZLITT (1778-1830)"To fill the hour- that is happiness." - RALPH WALDO EMERSON, patron poet of broadcasters."Letn} not your heart be troubled." - John 14:1"Men hate more steadily than they love." - SAMUEL JOHNSON, quoted by Boswen}ll"How use doth breed a habit in a man." - SHAKESPEARE 'Two Gentlemen of Verona,' Act V Scene IV"Genius is mainn}ly an affair of energy" - MATTHEW ARNOLD (1822-1888)"Lillies that fester smell far worse than weeds." - SHAKESPEARn}E, Sonnet XCIV"God tempers the cold to the shorn lamb." - HENRI ESTIENNE (d. 1520)"There is only one cure for the evn}ils which newly acquired freedom produces and that is more freedom." - THOMAS MACAULAY (1800-1859)"Tell me what compan}ny thou keepest-and I'll tell thee what thou art." - CERVANTES, 'Don Quixote'"When flatterers meet, the Devil goes ton} dinner." - JOHN RAY (1627?-1705)"No one loves the man whom he fears." - ARISTOTLE (384-322 B.C.E.)"Fear, like pan}in, looks and sounds worse than it feels." - REBECCA WEST (1892- )"To err is human, to forgive divine." - ALEXAn}NDER POPE (1688-1744)"Experience is the name everyone gives to his mistakes." - OSCAR WILDE (1854-1900)"The reward on}f one duty is the power to fill another." - GEORGE ELIOT, feminist"Can one desire too much of a good thing?" - SHn}AKESPEARE, 'As You Like It,' Act IV Scene I"Democracy gives to every man the right to be his own oppressor" - JAMn}ES RUSSELL LOWELL (1819-1891)"The fewer desires, the more peace." - THOMAS WILSON (1663-1755) (Editor Look for more Fn}AMOUS QUOTES in future newsletters!) -^-^-^-peace." - THOMAS WILSON (1663-1755) (Editor Look for more Fl<
