Martin) Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 22 I have heard on this group that commodore offered free upgrade chips to fix some bugs in the old 1571s that had trouble reading single sided disks. I have one of those drives and I was wondering if the offer was still going. If not , where and how much would it cost to get such an upgrade anyway. I haven't been using my c128 system as of late but I here it has some nice CP/M features and I plan to pursue them. I had just got an old version of turbo pascal up and running before I lost interest. Anybody no of a unix site with anonymous ftp that has commodore 64/128 software sitting on it. I would appreciate the knowledge. Thanks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Vernard Martin Teaching Assistant/Computer Operator Georgia Institute of Technology isusevm@gatech.edu.UUCP "Where there is a will, there is a way to subvert it." --- Me _______________________________________________________________________ -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Karla Jennings This account is temporarily being used as a collection point for mail. isusevm@pyr.gatech.edu
