Conference 7.286::atarist

     Location:  Acton Christian Church

     **NOTE THE NEW LOCATION** - 45 Minot Avenue
     Go north on Taylor Road at the lights just east of the junction of
     Routes 2 and 111.  Take your first right onto Minot Avenue (beyond
     school on right).  The Acton Christian Church is the building on the
     left with the long wooden ramp in front.

    Note that the Acton Christian Church does not currently have a sign
    out in front to identify itself.  The mailbox across the streen from
    the church building is labelled "Adventures For Children", which
    uses the facility as a Day Care center during the work week.

As a deacon at Acton Christian Church, I am pleased to be able to say
that a sign was erected last Saturday to identify the building.  Now you
don't have to "guess" that the place "looks like a church" anymore.

If you know what it takes to get a sign of any kind approved by the town
officials in Acton, you know that this is an event is worthy of some
celebration.

        Topic:  Copyfest

The August meeting of the Acton/Boxboro Atari Computer User's Society
will meet tonight for a copyfest.  During this time, members will be
able to copy disks from the club public domain library.  Non-members may
also do so for a nominal fee, but we would encourage you to join.

If you are going to copy disks, for faster service you should bring your
own computer and disk copying software.

Acton Christian is at 45 Minot Ave, which is near the intersection of
Rt 2 and Rt 27.  Turn NORTH at the first traffic light on Rt 2 that is
EAST of Rt 27. (This intersection is near the entrance of Digital's
Piper Road plant.)  This road takes you past the Conant school.  Beyond
the school, you reach a bend in the road.  Turn RIGHT, the church is
right there on your LEFT.

    At last night's meeting we adopted a formal constitution and a new
    name:	NaVAUS
    		Nashoba Valley Atari Users Society
    

NaVAUS

Is that like "Na(r)hvuss" or with hollywood-english accent "nervous"?
Any reflection on Atari...

Just joking

        Topic:  Gribnif - NeoDesk

Rick Flashman and Tricia Metcalf of Gribnif software will be at our November
Meeting. Gribnif produces the very popular NeoDesk for the ST. They will be
offering NeoDesk at the special price of $35 at the meeting. Come and discover
all you can from the NeoDesk experts! They might also be able to tell us what
else Gribnif is working on. Also, thanks to Bob of RFMicrotech, we will be
raffling the SpeedBall game for the ST.

			     NaVAUS MEETING REPORT

Last night's NaVAUS meeting was attended by about 30 people.  An
impressive turnout!

Rick Flashman of Gribnif software spoke about NeoDESK, how the product
came to be, and demonstrated what the current capabilities are.  He also
demonstrated some features from the upcoming next major release, which
should be appearing in the spring.  The new featues include substantial
new capabilities for customizing what happens when you activate an icon.
I missed a lot of the details, but I caught enough of it to be excited
about the possibilities.  We all got to ask our favorite "tough" questions.

NeoDESK is impressive. Several copies of NeoDESK were sold on the spot.
Even I bought one!  I can't wait to try it.

A pitch was given for the Blitz cable, and we got to see one first hand.
It's literally as simple as cutting a 6' floppy cable in half and
soldering the bare ends to a DB25.  You use this get-up to attach two
drives and your printer port, and the controlling software (available as
freeware) does the rest.   Using this cable, it's claimed that you can
format and copy a double sided disk in about 45 seconds.  We didn't get a
demonstration, but we might get one of these for our library.

Rick Saul (HANNAH::) brought in a '520 with a substantial quantity (2.5
meg?) of memory in it, and opened it up for us to see how he did it.  Lots
of wires!  Not for the faint of heart, but impressive to see what you can
do with a little cleverness.

NaVAUS membership is on a calendar year basis, so if you live in
eastern Massachusetts, now's the time to get involved in your local
Atari club. Dues are $15/year, and this get's you our newsletter and
access to the club library of PD and shareware software titles (topic
461).  The next meeting will be January 2, 1990 at 7:15PM at the Acton
Christian Church.  See note 25.4 for directions.

    	The real question is:  Is there a Dan Wilga? Nobody seems to have 
    ever seen this person.  The image appears: A cage with an imput door
    for Pepsi and Twinkies and an output door from which pours forth
    faboulous code. (I hope he's not another S. Hawking, or similar - I
    would be quite contrite and wishing I had not written this if so...)
      - Chris

NaVAUS meets TONIGHT (2-Jan-1990) at the Acton Christian Church, 45
Minot Ave., Acton, MA, U.S.A.  The guest speaker is Jim Allen, creator
of the Turbo-16, 16Mhz performance upgrade.  There will be a
demonstration.

Also, an STE will be on display.

Regular meeting starts at 7:15.

Note that our membership is on a calendar year basis, so now's the time
to join or renew.

    At tonight's NaVAUS meeting you will also be able to see and touch the
    new ATARI Lynx portable color video game system!
    

NaVAUS meets tomorrow night, Tuesday, (30-Jan-1990) at the Acton
Christian Church, 45 Minot Ave., Acton, MA, U.S.A.  No guest speaker,
this will be a "copyfest" night where the Public Domain software library
will be open for copying by members.  Good enough reason to join!

Also, the Migraph hand scanner will be demonstrated.

Note that our membership is on a calendar year basis, so now's the time
to join or renew.

    As promised in note 461.2....
    
    The new PD Library listing for the NaVAUS Club is available online at:
    
    QARRY::DISK$USER:[BHAMILTON.PUBLIC]STLIB.LST
    
    The Library has been restructured and converted to double-sided
    diskettes. Requests for specific files from a single library diskette
    onto a single-sided diskette will be honored at no additional cost.
    
    Library disks are available to non-members at $3+postage which includes
    a SONY DS diskette.

     Location:  Acton Christian Church - large meeting room
        Topic:  Midi applications

There is a LOT to demonstrate at this meeting.  Please be early - aim
for 7:00 if possible, to get any disk copying and magazine reading
out-of-the-way before the feature presentation.  I will have (my own)
recent issues of ST-Informer and Current Notes available starting at
6:45.  Club copies of other publications usually show up with Ray
Wallace.  I will attempt to minimize as much as possible the "club
business" portion.  The adjenda will go something like:

7:15-7:25 club announcements
7:30-8:10 Chad Leigh and Dan Gosselin demonstrate C-Lab's Notator
8:15-8:40 Rick Saul breifly shows us some Hybrid Arts software
8:45-9:45 Dr. T's staff (oh no!  I forgot their names!) will demonstrate
		their Tiger CUB and Copyist Apprentice software.

I expect the meeting to be longer than usual.  I know I won't get home
until after 11:00.  I may swap Rick with Dr. T's if there is a time
constraint.

Acton Christian Church is at 45 Minot Ave, which is near the
intersection of Rt 2 and Rt 27.  Turn NORTH at the first traffic light
on Rt 2 that is EAST of Rt 27. (This intersection is near the entrance
of Digital's Piper Road plant.)  This road takes you past the Conant
school.  Beyond the school, you reach a bend in the road.  Turn RIGHT,
the church is right there on your LEFT.

Note that we are in the "other" room, that is, the large meeting room
with blue carpeting that looks like where the Church usually holds it's
worship services.  This will allow us to use the sound system installed
in this room for the Midi demos.

(Of course, like much of life, things are not what they appear.  In
actuality, the Acton church meets for worship in the same small room
with the Red carpet that we usually use for our meetings.  Attendance
has been low lately, and the congregation "feels better" is the smaller
room.   Twenety people in the small room feels like a lot.  In the large
room, it feels like the place is empty.)

See you there!

Reminder - NaVAUS meets the LAST Tuesday of the month, NEXT week, NOT
today, which is the fourth Tuesday out of five this month.

Bill (ASDS::) Powers demonstrating Minix.  Lots of little pieces of
information to give out, about the upcoming Atarifest, etc.

Deb Sengupta has said that he will be there again, and if you are
interested in being a test site for his implementaiton of a VAX
DCL-like shell for the ST, you might want to talk to him about it.

See earlier notes in this topic for directions.

This Tuesday will be "Emulation Day" at NaVAUS.  If all goes according to
plan, we will get a demonstration by Kevin Champagne of the Spectre GCR,
the Macintosh emulator, and also a demo by Kevin Powers of the
Supercharger PC emulator.  If you have programs you want to try on these
emulators, this would be a good time.

NaVAUS has been accepted by Practical Solutions as a member of their
user group promotion.  We have a Practical Solutions Monitor Master
which will be demonstrated this Tuesday, and then raffled off.  This
time, however, there is a catch.  The winner of the raffle MUST write a
review of the Monitor Master which we will publish in the newsletter. 
We will then be able to get another practical solutions product to
review.

Also, we will have a 1040 STE to show at this meeting.

        Topic:  Speech synthesis hardware, officer elections

The November 27 meeting of NaVAUS is very important.  At this meeting we
will elect our club officers for the upcoming year.  In addition, we
will receive a presentation from Bryan Levin about how makes his Atari
ST talk.  Bryan has built a small speech synthesis device that attaches
easily to the Atari printer port.

The NaVAUS offices are President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary,
ST librarian, and 8-bit librarian.  Of particular interest to software
collectors, Buzz will be relinquishing the ST librarian office this
year.  As a further enticement to run for office, the librarian gets
the use of the club's DSDD external disk drive and "Blitz" cable.

Beside the election, the November 27 meeting will feature a
demonstration of a small speech synthesis device that anyone can build
themselves for a few dollars.  Bryan will have schematics, as well as
some  software that could be used as the starting point for further
experimentation.  For those of you that are interested in electronics as
a hobby, but haven't figure out where to start, this could be just the
thing for you.

I will be doing a presentation on modem communications, including a
demo of the latest version of "ALADDIN", GENIE's special application
for optimizing the on-line time used on GENIE, the on-line service of
General Electric.  I will also show using Uniterm to connect to BBoard
systems, but will not go into any depth there.  I will discuss RS232
ports in GREAT detail, including pins and signals, including a few of
my own opinions on some serial port issues that affect universal
compatibility.

There will also be a short demonstartion of a "bubble-jet" portable
printer.

There is a new Aladdin, as of January 16, which I will upload to my
[.HOBBY.ST] area as soon as I can.


Sorry about the late notice of today's meeting!

P.S., if there is enough interest from DEC people, I will be able to
hang around afterwords to answer any outstanding questions you have
about Whack, and perhaps demonstrate Whack's high speed file transfer
and multi-session capabilities.

This meeting is an opportunity for members to sell off some of their
collection of unused hardware and software.   This should be a good
opportunity for you to come and get a good deal on things.  I know of at
least one, if not two, complete Atari-ST systems that will be for sale,
some complete hard drives, some hard drive parts, and at least one
complete "XT Clone" that will be for sale.  There will undoubtedly be a
lot of other stuff.  Most members I've talked to will be bringing something.

Also, I will be taking final orders for people that want to take
advantage of the Palumbo font offerfor PageStream and Calamus fonts.

Also, we will establish and try to fund a Migraph hand-scanner sub-club,
so the club will have a scanner that members can use.

        Topic:  Cheap Midi

The April 30 meeting will be a demonstration of "Cheap Midi" on the Atari
ST.  Several members will be showing how inexpensive electronic musical
instruments can be connected to the ST, and driven using inexpensive or
free software.  There will be no "professional" equipment used here.
While we all know that the Atari ST is an excellent tool for the
professional musician, this demo is aimed at how we can use the Midi
capability of the ST for our own enjoyment and education.  Demos will be
done by Buzz Hamilton, Roy Lomicka, Joe Oconnor, and Jeff Lomicka.

Software will include some public domain sequencer software, samples
from the club's collection of "Music Studio" format music files, the
"ROBO-BOP" shareware drum sequencer, and if I can figure it out in
time, a demonstration of the demo of the new music program TCB-TRACKER,
a sample sound player.

        Topic:  Atari in graphics business, Migraph hand scanner demp

If you are at all into desktop publishing, this is one meeting you don't
want to miss!  Artist Rick Keene will be demonstrating how the Atari ST
plays a role in his professional graphic arts business.  Rick is a user of
the Migraph Hand Scanner, and will also show what role the scanner plays
in his work.  Rick has been featured in an interview in the March issue
ST-Informer, and is the computer cartoonist and occasional author for
Current Notes.

This Tuesday's meeting is well timed.  Rick has been using his Atari ST
and the Migraph Hand Scanner for some time, and will be able to provide
us with a wealth of information about it.  Also, since I forgot to ask
last month about involvement in the Migraph Hand Scanner sub-club, we
are extending the deadline for signing up one additional meeting.  This
means you can wait and see Rick's demonstration, and having seen it in
action, you will then be eager to hand over $20 for the opportunity to
borrow the Migraph scanner.

The benefits of joining NaVAUS are getting better all the time.  All
NaVAUS members are entitled to receive a FREE "Atari User's Coupon Book"
from the St Connection.  I will have these on hand at the next meeting,
and will pass them out to members that are present.  Quantities are
limited, so you must be a member to get one at this month's meeting.

In a panic, I called Dave Anderson of the West Newston Bit Bucket, and
he agreed to come on short notice and do the meeting.  He will be
bringing a TT for us to look at.  He says only "it's fast.  real fast.".

We'll do some PageStream stuff on it, and maybe some Touch-Up, and other

        Topic:  Copyfest

Joe ran into a problem so that he couldn't show up last time, so this
meeting we will try again to have a copyfest.  This is actually good,
because he's downloaded all sorts of stuff from the usenet archives
between then and now.  Maybe he'll publish the list...

    May be he will :-)

NaVAUS meets THURSDAY this week, at the Westford Library in Westfored MA.
				7:00-9:00 PM

This is NOT our regular meeting time & place!  This is a special combined
meeting of NaVAUS and the Nashua user's group for a presentation by Rick
Flashman of Gribnif software on all of the latest Gribnif products.

- Abaresque illustration editor
- Convector bitmap to vector conversion
- Steno word processor
- Stalker terminal emulator
- XBOOT boot configuration selector
- Possible (depending on if the hardware arrives from Germany)
  we will get to see the Crazy Dots video adaptor.

This is going to be a GREAT MEETING.  All of you are invited.  Products
will be on sale at the demo at what Rick calls greatly reduced prices.

For more details and a MAP OF HOW TO GET THERE, print
PRNSYS::USER2:[LOMICKAJ]WESTMAP.PS on a nearby PostScript printer.

   Location:  Acton Christian Church
      Topic:  Jim Allen, Fast Technology, demo of latest products

Jim Allen designs accelerator boards for Fast Technology.  I don't know
what he will be showing this this time, maybe his 68030 upgrade, or
perhaps his new, smaller accellerators that fit in the small systems.

Today there will be some game demos, and then we will degenerate into a
MidiMAZE tournement using the new MidiMaze from Germany.  Bring an ST
and a Midi cable if you want to participate in the MidiMaze game.  We'll
have software for everyone.

      Topic:  TT & Big Screen demo, PD library information

Joe Oconnor will discuss how the PD library is organized, and other
library related things, in order for you to make the most of next
month's copyfest meeting.

In case that doesn't take the whole time :-), I will also have a TT
system with high-res monochrome monitor to demonstrate.  I will show
Pagestream 2.2 (Much faster than 2.1!) and Spectre GCR/TT.  (There is a
long weird story about how you get a GCR to work with a TT, and it's
still not working perfectly, but it's close enough.)

      Topic:  COPYFEST

Bring floppies and your own computer - members can copy from the club PD
library for free.  Non-members for $1/disk.

There are lots of new titles in the library - it's not the same old
stuff.

Note, there IS NO NAVAUS MEETING TONIGHT.

We are on a new schecdule, the next meeting is Thursday, Nov 12, in the
Fletcher library in Westford.
