Lines: 30 Received newest Jameco catalog, few items of interest to Amiga owners. Genuine Commodore RF modulator kit - will allow Amiga to be hooked up to television (even passes sound - works on A1000, not sure of others) I think originally CBM was selling these for about $70, Jameco is selling them for $3.95 - nice if you do not want to buy 2 monitors, but want to drag the machine around. Another item of interest is a Macintosh drive that I know for a fact will work with the AMAX software/hardware. They are selling it for $189 (dumb me forgot catalog and cannot remember name, I think it is Tall Technologies, Inc or something like that), anyway, this is much cheaper than I have seen MAC drives. Friend has same drive on his AMAX and it works flawlessly. Jamecos ads can also be found in other computer mags, (ie Computer SHopper) their phone number is (415) 592-8097 DISCLAIMER - I am in no way associated with Jameco, but I have purchased the RF modulator and have seen the MAC drive in action and IMHO I thought they have good prices on some equipment that may be of use to others, so there ;-). George Gibeau -- During the last year, more people have seen Elvis than have seen Amiga ads, BUT - this is changing for the better ;-) ;-) ;-) UUCP: ucqais.uc.edu!ggibeau BBS: (513) 721-7977 GT NODE: 006/005 US Snail-Dept of Biology ML 06, University of Cincinnati, Ohio 45221
