************************************************************************** A. Richardson, P.O. Box 5471, Wellesley Street, Auckland, New Zealand 1036 ************************************************************************** 15 September 1998 E-mail alanr@amiga.gen.nz My Ref.: VG5/eug-ed Dear 'Gus, Many thanks for EUG39 and your expresion of great interest in what Alistair France of Acorn had to say at a recent meeting of the local Acorn User Group. Firstly, in my so far futile hunt for a ROM image for my Cumana disc drive interface for the Elk, I wonder whether anyone can help with a current address for David Humphreys. He is the last person I helped with a Cumana system but recent letters have been unanswered. I believe he is, or was, a member of EUG. The address I have is: No. 2 Llwynteg Rhydlewis, Llandysul Dyfed, Wales SA44 5PE Hope someone can help. Alistair France of Acorn U.K. paid a visit downunder, namely to Australia and N.Z. At his meeting he spoke mostly about the NC - network computer. Extolling its virtues and wide range of applications mainly in the education field. As is is well removed from my humble 8-bit Elk I must admit to not taking in a lot of detail although I thought I sat attentively for about 1.5 to 2 hours. More likely 1.5. It seems the NC is doing well in Australia and that there are several installed in N.Z. I believe it's like having the hard drive located remotely and supplying several terminals at once. All the processing is done in the server which houses the hard drive. I under- stand that the setup provides a more even load on the server which allows a more efficient operation overall. I was mainly pleased to see that Acorn is keeping active and supportive of N.Z. There was also brief mention of Phoebe dressed in yellow but I didn't absorb much of it. Lastly, I believe I mentioned ProAction in an earlier letter and its stated intention to support the Electron where practical. It was run by David Bradford and at one stage I had suggested he contact EUG for assistance with any programmes that he was unsure about with respect to running on the Elk. Unfortunately, my last letter to him was returned with the answer "gone away". Does anyone know what has happened to him and his software collection? Perhaps there is a new address? He was at 162 London Road, Bradford. I have recently replaced my RGB monitor with resulting sharper screen. I use VIEW with red lettering on a white background which I prefer over white on black. Sorry to see we are losing Chris Chadwick. I hope Dil Williams enjoyed some of the Rugby at the Games such as N.Z. v. Fiji! The N.Z.ers produced New Zealand's 100th gold medal from the Commonwealth Games so it was rather special. At the end of Mr Williams' letter Gus mentions something about a letter from downunder but I couldn't find anything. Has me curious. Next issue perhaps? Best wishes to all. Alan Richardson ************************************************************************** The letter was a reply from a group in NZ. The main point about it was the way they wrote eg 'This iz 4 U' I've lost the letter! So after I get a bandage on my wrist and find a knife to cut the noose from around my neck I will have another look for it. Trouble is which pile of junk is it under?
