A new Blood & A new Program
Greetings,
Marlon has SMS me this morning. He decided to try out the Amiga on his
P4- XP pro PC. I hope I'll be free this afternoon like yesterday so I
can give him all the information he needs to know on Emulating the
Amiga. Also, I hope my office's ISP problem will not happen again cause
It really pisses me up ):-C.
Finally, a new blood deciple to convert... he he he... Hail the Amiga!!
;-)
I feel glad to see a new fellow amigan. I might also teach him to BLOG
in the long run. :-P
Speaking of yesterday, I was able to continue to work on a program I'd
been itching to try. Here's the theme. It's a rather like a DOS
environment, with a Blinking Block cursur. Right now, I will tell the
rest as soon as it's finally done. I have a stupid tendency not to finish
one personal project once I started it.
I can't finish it at home becuase I need to have time for my loving
fiance. :-D She's always a source of inspiration to me. She makes me
whole! :-D I love her. :-D
Till the next Blog.

ISP Problem Strikes Back!
Greetings,
As always, the office ISP is having one of those days where you can't
hardly browse the web. So I written this Blog in a way to vent it for
the moment. Har!!
ATM it's lunch break. Shortly, I'll be free for the whole afternoon
after I do some errand or two. Then I'll be going to get My AmosPro
Up and running again.
Yesterday, I got busy from doing a little checklisting the whole CDROM
catalog and A few hardware too.
I'll be blogging some more tomorrow as work slowly progress. I'm still
undecided to which program to design. Bye for now..
That reminded me of Marvin's problem. I just hope I'll be able to help
him out. I want him to experience the Amiga emulation on his PC. At least,
to complete his skills as a 'Padawan Learner'. Amigans, like Jedi are
quite few and most are sometimes on the BLUE, RED and Beige sides.
Beige are the classic users, BLUE are MorphOS, RED are AmigaOnes. I just
wish that all Amigans unite for a common interests. When would such a
time come? Only time can tell. As long as MorphOS, A1OS, Classic AOS are
still being use. The fire keeps on burning.

Venture Forth
Greetings,
Gizz72 Blogs again.... I recheck Ross' copy and confirm that it is CorssDos capable. The L
has Crossdos, devs has mfm.device, finally
DOSDrivers folders has PC0, and PC1 has the
mountlist for automounting on boot time.
I think he'll send a messenger by today. I
feel glad to help out.
As soon as my place is a bit neat now after a
rather moving day yesterday, I work on my AMOS
program problem today. I'm still not sure what
to do today but, I'll be expecting the boss to
give me some pointers of my task.
About me and my girlfriend. We celebrated mommy's
birthday yesterday at a restaurant. Mommy still
miss my dad a lot, but she's much better coping
now than before. I miss him too. His nightly
errand with Civilization. BTW that's his all time
favorite game and The Patrician.

Finally!
Greetings,
Goodness, what a chaotic start in the office.
I had to clean my new place so I have to
transfer from my old. There were problems in
the internet connection, but as I settle down
now it's finally fixed. So I'm back for more
Blogging!!
It has been a wonderful weekend. I finally got
all the copies I need for Ross and ready to go.
He ask for a few copies of old Workbench becuase
all his orginal disk were badly corrupted and
no way to recover it after, hmmm 4 years of
neglect! He's been through a devorce. Which made
him leave his C64 and Amiga collections for the
moment. Now that everything is settledm, he's
starting a new. I owe him a lot so I'd offer him
my help.
I just hope he'll figure it out how he'll be able
to extract an .ADF files from PC to Amiga. I shoukld
have made a boot disk that has cross dos built-in
with Unadf to do all the dirty work. Maybe next
time.
Good luck Ross!

Silent Thursday, Yin Yang Friday
Greetings,
Yesterday, the ISP where my office is connected was down all afternoon.
I was busy at the same time making presentation and updated the company
website. Me and my boss had to file an overtime so we could finish it
till 9pm local time.
Today, since the work is done, something came up. As I was testing the
different possibilities of that bug between WINUAE and AMOSPro. I called
home to check on my girlfriend. Yes, I checked her to let her know I'm
not late today and tell her I love her. But as she answer the phone she
seems bored! I have no reason why she should. She told me she want to
look for a job. I don't know what to say. I'm completely blank. I hope
to resolve this problem this evening, soon as I get back.
I feel like blogging all day about this. I must stop here about my girl
friend for now.
Since I feel a bit upset about this I don't feel like discussing tech
things for now. :-( I'll get back soon as I gather enough strength.
Poor me!
Anyway, about the problem on AMOSPro. It seem to disappear when I use the
rom 1.3 image and boot from the disk drive(adf file). The bug on changing
values at DIR$ does not manifest any problem. Hmmm, at least this will
do for now, beacuse AMOSPro is more compatible with older configurations
and floppy operations. I try to continue this program despite my sudden
lack of interest of it. :-(

Other things in my mind
Greetings,
Most of the network here in the office are
unstable. Now I'm back here for more blogging.
I've finally configured Aweb and updated a new
beta version 3.5.1 Feels a bit stable. The only
problem is that when I bookmark my favorite site
like amiga(dot)org, The whole emulator stops
without any error message or anything. Really
odd, but I'm able to get it running someother
sites like this one.
I tried to erase the cache but same problems
persists. Hope to resolve this on my own for now.
Since today the boss seems to ignore me for now
if there are any work, I get in my own passtime.
AMOS... :-)
Anyway, I'm no expert at this. The other day, about
a week ago, I'm trying a certain program like opening
sequential file. I seem to encounter a bug between
AMOSPro and WINUAE.
DIR$='...dirpath/." seems to be not working. I can't
change the directory. I tends to crash the WHOLE
WinDOHs. BTW I'm using Win98SE. I having a hell of a
bad time here.... Just hope I could get this running
soon or drop the whole thing.
The reason I've encountered this problem is that I'm
trying to make a simple program for my girlfriend.
She was reviewing some multiple choice exam and I thought,
maybe I'll try to practice my programming skills in
making this simple program again. Complete with scoring
and editable options.
Well that ruins everything when DIR$=' ' does not work
at all. I've run and tested other sample program it seem
to work for a while then I crashes my WINDOHS!
Anyway I'll be back soon for another Blogging time.

Another day at hand
Greetings,
Well it looks like I have this day on the wraps. I finally finished some presentation and a few revisions. I just could not help why I never have the time at home. I just need to make some favors for Ross to be filled. I doubt I will due to the tremedous attention I need to give for my girlfriend. :-)
I very happy she's with me. At some point when I'm idle, all I could think of is her. *sigh
Well, it's almost 5pm here and almost time to wind down. Maybe visit Amiga(dot)org again for a final run down, as always.

My First Blog!
Greetings,
Hello, My name is Gilbert T. Tan and I live in the Philippines. My interests are Amiga Computers. Sometimes C64.
I've published this BLOG using IBrowse2.3. I been an Amiga user/AMIGAN since 1997 when I bought my first A500. I still have it.
My Present system is an Amiga1200 with Viper1230/30Mhz with a 16Mb EDO RAM. I usually go on-line with my dial-up 52k Modem.
My Amigas maybe be out-to-date, but I love the darn thing. It's now a hobby computer, as so many other users put it.
My favorite Programming laguage I use is AMOSPro v2.00. I've got throgh colleage with-out using a PC.
I'm new to this BLOG thing. Keep you all posted as I try to be nostalgic about my Amiga.
As of this writing, I'm at the office emulating my Amiga using AmigaForever v6.0. I really the best emulation so far.
Thanks again for visiting my blog site. I would like to hear from you all Amigans soon, Specially from the Philippines! Want to know If you're still here!
I would like to extend an invitation at www(dot)amiga(dot)org, I usually hang-out there or just lurking by at most. I go by the same name as Gizz72. ;-)
