While the full press release will appear (soon) in comp.newprod, these are some excerpts. Subscribe to comp.newprod if you wish to see all the details (including how to upgrade). In the interest of "standardization" I have decided to "freely redistribute" the A-Talk III code that permits access to multi-serial ports from TOOL and PROJECT icons, as well as from the CLI. It should appear soon on comp.sys.amiga.tech. Press 'n', if you wish to skip the "commercialism". ---------------------- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: OXXI, INC. (213)427-1227 A-TALK III SUPPORTS ASDG'S MULTI-SERIAL PORT BOARDS --------------------------------------------------- Long Beach, CA -- February 28, 1989 -- A-Talk III is the first commercial software product on the Amiga computer to support the new multi-serial ports from ASDG, Inc. With A-Talk III and the new ASDG DSP (Dual Serial Board) ports, Amiga 2000 users can now simultaneously drive multiple serial port devices such as modems, printers and digitizers concurrently. [...] A-Talk III also supports the ASDG's TwinX-based SBX-Serial/2 and SBX-Serial/4 boards, that allow the "industrial" user with up to 16 serial ports. OXXI and the developer of A-Talk III have been actively involved with the development of multi-serial support drivers for the Amiga together with ASDG, Commodore Business Machines and other hardware vendors. A-Talk III's implementation of multi-serial support fully conforms with the CBM Multi-Serial Specification. A-Talk III works also with the "announced, but not yet available" A2232 multi-serial card from Commodore.
