1071.1 | I have something very similar | SALIDA::BITTROLFF | | Mon Feb 18 1991 19:09 | 12 |
| Greetings,
I have something similar, although the name Forget-Me-Clock doesn't ring a bell.
Basically it plugs into the cartridge slot and does have a pass through. It
worked just fine as a clock, but I was never able to get the one cartridge
program I have to work with it.
In my case it has been superseded by my new hard drive and I no longer use it.
If you want it I'm located on the first floor at 1/Q11. Let me know and I'll
bring it in.

| I posted this query in comp.sys.atari.st, and received two mail
messages. Toad Computers used to carry it, but when I called them they
said they were currently out of stock (but were trying to order some
more). Another person said that they got one for about $30 at Software
Spectrum in New Jersey.
I called Horizon Computers in Denver, and they said they had not even
heard of it.

| I've just received one of these as well. Unfortunately I can't say how
well it works yet as the disk with the sw for setting the thing up was
blank!! I phoned Frontier and they're sending me another.
I can confirm, however, that the C-Lab Notator dongle works with the
forget-me-clock cartridge in place (although the clock is stopped, but
I wouldn't have thought that would make any difference).
One thing I wonder about is the battery - it's soldered in within the
unit and definitely not designed to be user-changable. It doesn't say
whether it's rechargable or if you're supposed to throw the whole thing
away when it runs down.

1071.6 | Well it seems to work... | RUTILE::BISHOP | | Mon Jun 03 1991 11:50 | 13 |
| I just recieved VIDI-ST, VIDICHROME, and VIDI-RGB and these seem to
work just fine through the FMC2...
I didn't look closely at the battery, i'll have a look tonight, but
i'm sure when i had a quick peek it seemed to be held in place by a
clip... i'll have another look...
Oh, how did you find Frontier??? In my opinion they're very
professional and friendly..

Yes, no problem about the replacement disk once they verified I was a
registered user. (mind you I wouldn't expect them to quibble over a 25p
disk!)

1071.8 | Which Clock To Get? | RGB::ROST | Ashley Hutchings wannabe | Tue Jan 21 1992 19:29 | 6 |
| I'm thinking of adding a clock to my 1040 and since Toad sells both
Forget-me-clock II and the ST/Time for the same price ($49), I'm up in the
air about which to get. The need to install the ST/Time is a non-issue
for me. Opinions one way or the other?

1071.9 | How about the Magic Sac? | AIDEV::MISKINIS | | Wed Jan 22 1992 18:00 | 8 |
| Hi Brian,
For that price you should be able to get a Magic-Sac Plus, which
in addition to a clock, will offer you some MAC compatibilty.
This originally sold for almost $200 with ROMS (I think), I
got mine within a package deal on a used ST system...
