Hi,
I recently picked up a copy of CorelSCSI v1.01 for Macintosh on eBay.
What was the last/final version of CorelSCSI for the Mac? Does anyone have a
version later than 1.01?
I'd also like to get hold of earlier Corel SCSI-related Mac software. I think
the product names were CorelDRIVER and Optistar.
Some background: CorelSCSI allows SCSI devices to be used on (older) Mac
computers. Apart from CD-ROM and direct-access devices, e.g. SyQuest drives
and rewritable magneto-optical, it supports WORM drives and media. It may be
the only Mac software which supports write-once media, with Mac applications
seeing WORM disks as normal HFS volumes. It's no longer sold or supported by
Corel.
No more modern packages like FWB Hard Disk Toolkit and FormatterOne from
Software Architects support write-once media.
Regards,

Am I crazy to sell a DEC 3000/500 server (desk side) for $50? I
believe it's got all the RAM it can fit and disk in and lots SCSI
plugs out. My HSZ40s go for $25 a piece. My HP9000K400 with 2xDDS2
drives and 30 GB (?) RAID array and HP Terminal all in one rack go
for $100.
Am I crazy or just fed up about stuff taking space in my garage?
If you are in the Indianapolis area and want to get some stuff,
go for it as long as supplies last.

I could ZIP the files, though not eagerly. QB 4.5 fits on two 3.5 inch
diskettes, so it is not large by today's standards. I do not recall how
large 7.x is. It always amazes me to look at modern bloatware and compare
how little more USEFUL work it produces than earlier, much smaller
programs. I happen to have Winword 2 and it meets most of my needs. In
fact, except for Internet activities, I am not sure any program I need
requires Windows past Windows for Workgroups=3.11. I find Quick Basic
sufficient for most calculations and I doubt Visual Basic will do any more
beyond filling a larger chunk of my hard disk and DRAM, unless it can
handle a larger array (matrix), which is a real limitation in Quick Basic,
which dates back to the time of 1 MB machines. Of course, if I loose my
mind and decide to promote my image in the form of elaborate Web pages, or
to write some parasites, I will find Visual Basic better, but I have not
yet reached that stage.
I suggest writing directly to me if you are requesting a copy of QB; it
reduces the clutter on the newsgroup and it is doubtful others
care whether I email one of you the program. And I will send 4.5 unless
you really need 7.x (I am not sure where the diskettes are!).

So, there may be some hope. In fact, I just have the bare board, no
software, no manuals. I tried several installers I found for download,
but none of them worked with the AB AT.
I'm an absolute novice on old DOS-machines and I'm always glad if some
installer does the configuration of CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT.
You'd do me a great favor if you could send me this installer.
Thanks. Steff

Sorry, ALL PC's have been sent to the dump. Nothing left to give away in
the 386/486/low Pentium level.
I do have some IBM AT's, an XT, and a few PC's available however. They
are on the junk list, just haven't made it that far yet.

well, I dug around some more and found a 5.25 inch disk "above board/at
version 1.1" and also a hand written label for intel above board at and
ps/at ver 2.4
contact me off list if you need some support or replacement files.

According to the "Installing the Above Board/AT" manual, there really
isn't much to the setup program. It is just a helper in that it will
properly set up config.sys and autoexec.bat for the expanded memory
manager, a print buffer and ramdisk. It does include the print buffer
and ramdisk, but dos's ramdrive program (or shareware) should work.
I haven't stumbled across the disks yet.

Could somebody help me with the original software-installer for the Intel
Above Board AT?
I got such a board in a 286 AT and I were too keen to get it working,
however all the installers I found were for some different type of AB.
Thanks for caring! Steff

>Scotch 777 6250 bpi", so in this case I would say "7 inch reel, 6250 bpi"
I just pulled one out, and I rather assume all are the same.
This one says Endura 800 BPI to 6250 CPI BASF
It has an inner diameter of about 3.5" and an outer of about 7"
A quick look on ebay last night turned up some disappointing results. It
seems a bunch of 9 track reel tapes failed to sell in the last 30 days.
Maybe I'll try them on the Vintage list instead.
