Sooner or later, most people who own an S-100 system need to transfer a file to or from a DOS or Windows (or Macintosh or whatever) computer. A Google search of comp.os.cpm "groups" will find a discussion of this very topic that last occurred in early 2003. It's an old topic. Most people who need to establish serial file transfers to or from a CP/M system (or N* DOS system) of ANY sort end up doing something like this: get a SIMPLE file transfer program onto their CP/M system.

IOMega ZIP drives and ZIP disks may offer you a way to move megabyte-sized files from old Macs to new Macs, or from your Mac to a Windows/Pentium PC. Check my Web page for Mac hard drives, the ZIP drive section via this link for the ZIP drives I offer. I have drives for old Mac internal or external use, and for Windows systems too. For a bit more discussion, check the discussion above on recovering files from drives.

Probably not. AquaMOOSE needs hardware acceleration, and most emulators don't include support for hardware acceleration, causing the program to run much too slowly.

PLEASE READ THIS PARAGRAPH TWICE. NO USB external floppy drive will support Apple 400K or 800K diskettes. Period. Also, there are NO EXTERNAL SCSI-BASED floppy drives to speak of, today. Period. And Apple's older external floppy drives for 400K, 800K and 1.4Mb are intended for use ONLY with Apple Macs which already have an INTERNAL floppy drive. Period. Mac 400K and 800K diskettes are written in a unique fashion, no standard IBM-type floppy disk controller card in a PC can read them.

Common problems with supplied files from amateur or part-time designers, typically involve file and font incompatibilities, missing bleed and crop/fold/perf marks and poor color matching, (due to improper monitor calibration and a general lack of understanding of the CMYK process) which means the final output can vary DRAMATICALLY from what you see on your monitor. If you have never done this before, your CD or DVD cover isn't a great place to experiment.

The latest FireStore firmware incorporates fresh disk Partitioning with default cluster size FAT32 formatting. If you have version 1.x visit our web site at http://www.focusinfo.com/products/firestore/upgrade2.htm for upgrade information. If you have version 2.0 and need to obtain the latest version, call 1-408-370-9963 to make these arrangements.

Using My Computer -> Tools -> Map Network Drive, you can map to any of the areas listed in bold. Because Window and linux use different text file format you should avoid dragging and dropping text files onto any linux area.

Yes. The techniques used to build these pages are not operating system specific. However, the speedtest tool should work for every browser that can support simple javascript and some tables.

They are EPS files, which are cross platform. The individual template files were created on a Windows PC, so if you are using a Mac we recommend you use the stuffed version. Those templates were converted for use on a Mac.

We have tested PlaneShift under Windows (98, NT, 2000, XP), various Linux distributions and MacOS. We plan to keep these 3 platforms for now.

Yes we can but Mac is preferable, as most bureaus are Mac based. We usually find that most PC files we can convert to postscript, but they can be volatile and prone to corruption and /or loss of information. However, it is just as important to make sure that the software usage across the platforms are matched to a degree - if in doubt and the file information will allow you, save the file in a lower version as some versions do not 'rip' particularly well.

If you are crossing platforms, (from MAC to PC or vice versa), remember the fonts do not transfer well. MAC and PC fonts are different. Even if the program you are using is compatible, the postscript fonts may not be. This can create a shift in the entire "look" of the piece. Also, special characters are at different key combinations, which can lead to complications in finding replacement fonts.

Yes you can stream on both platforms. PC users will need to download the latest version of Windows Media Player. Macintosh users will need to download the latest Windows Media Player for Macintosh. or install Flip4Mac.

The Macintosh and PC versions are almost identical. The COMMAND key on the Macintosh (or splat, clover, rugbeater, propeller key) parallels the CONTROL key on the PC. The Mac OPTION key equates with the ALT key on the PC. to which platform is preferable, faster, exciting, etc., simply keep subscribed to the list... but don't expect any cross platform wars!

Yes. ConceptDraw documents and libraries and be freely exchanged between the Mac and Windows versions of the program.

Yes, and they will still be Mac files. So, you would then handle them the same as if they were Mac files copied to your Windows PC hard drive from a diskette. If you do not currently process native Mac files on your Windows PC, we would recommend moving the downloaded ZIP file to a Mac before un-ZIPing the Mac files. Back to Top

Remember, the IO is basically a standard pentium class PC with a standard BIOS and a 16MB flash memory card. Please read some of the messages in the "Technical" area on the I-Appliance Discussion Forum BBS, you will find many posts there talking about different OS's and how other installations went.

A future Linux version is a possibility, though unlikely in the near future. There is unlikely to be a version for other platforms, though please contact if are interested in developing one. See the Options menu to set whether you prefer British, America, Canadian, Australian, New Zealand, Irish, South African, Asian or International English. There is an option to either hide or flag words from different locales.

On the mac, there is a free component to ogg-ify itunes. The freeware VLC Media Player will also play OGG files. http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20020424233612407

If you want to compile wxPython from source, please follow these instructions. If you are installing from a binary, it's as simple as double-click on the installer or doing "rpm -i" on Linux. If you have any issues consult the download page of wxPython, a section specific for your platform.

No, sorry. mIRC just comes in two tastes for Windows; a 16 bit and a 32 bit one. These issues will work on Windows 3.x, Windows 95, 98, 2000, ME, XP, and NT, but not on Windows CE. mIRC also does not work on the Atari, Commodore, WebTV, Macintosh, UNIX or Linux operating systems. We have no plans to make mIRC versions for these systems in the future either. Sorry...

Yes. Aware IM applications are fully portable between operating systems. You can design your applications on any supported operating system and then deploy them with Aware IM running on any other operating system.

Yes. You can use any Jabber program, and there are lots available, many free. We recommend Pandion for Windows users as it is all set up and ready to go. For other packages, the details you need to know are: port: 5222 with TLS encryption (prefered), or port: 5223 with SSL encryption (if your client doesn't support TLS) For Mac users, you can use iChat, but may prefer Pandion, which is good for Jabber instant messaging but doesn't handle the chatrooms very well.

I've just installed a new Shadow Plan or Desktop using the setup.exe installer, and I see two conduits listed in Hotsync Manager's Custom settings!

Yes, you can build a Universal Binary from any supported platform, including Windows, Linux and even PowerPC-based Macs.

Supported platforms depend on the interface used to communicate with the INSTEON network. Smarthome's PowerLinc (USB and Serial) which are supplied with the Developer Kits support any platform that can communicate with either a serial or USB port.

At the moment PAP runs on Windows (2000/XP) and Linux. A Mac OSX version is in the making and soon to be released.

YES! The best part of our surfing is that it's server-side, meaning as long as you have a web-browser you can use our service. Just type the URL in the box at the top of the page, and check which options you would like to turn on. We recommend leaving them all on for optimal security. Then just press the big "GO!" button. You're now surfing totally anonymous!

Yes. However, all stations must be connected by a local area network (LAN). If you have multiple facilities in different areas, you must have a virtual private network (VPN) or T1 connection between facilities to allow the remote client stations to communicate with the master station.
