Message-ID: <13474@baldrick.udel.EDU> Date: 10 Mar 90 17:27:40 GMT Sender: mmdf@udel.EDU Lines: 34 Hi Folks, I just got some money (~$600) and am looking to make some hardware purchases. What I don't wanna get: Video h/w: Cos I'm going back home to the land of PAL and (3's company clones? :-)) and unless it's switchable, it's useless! Harddrive: I have this strange feeling that no matter how big a drive I get, it won't be enuff! Ok now what I'm sure about: Memory: I have 1 meg/ all Chip, and am looking for either 2 or 4 meg. Which boards are good/recommended? I have a rev6.1 motherboard. Problems with the 8-Up! board? Any suggestions/comments are welcome. Audio Digitizers: AMAS vs FutureSound vs PerfectSound! Any preferences and explanations thereof are welcome. Is the new version of PerfectSound still ~$60? Any other hardware products that have been good investments please let me know. Printers/lightpens/vorecone/scanners(not the ~$1000 one!) etc........ Thanks very very very much/ Bin reply to bpj0@lehigh.bitnet bjames@lehi3b15.csee.lehigh.edu Signing off........
