I just got a couple of Osborne 1's, and now...questions, questions, questions... First off, they came with an external monitor, but no plugs to go on the vidoe connectors to activate the built in monitors. I'm going to see if the last owner has them and just forgot to send them, but in case he doesn't, does anybody know how to make them? Next, one of them has an internal modem; what sort of commands does it respond to? And somebody said something about an 80 column upgrade; any source for these? Or for high density drive upgrades? And, lastly, is there an ftp site for cp/m software (yeah I know I'm really reaching now!) thanks for any and all info...e-mail would probably be wise, and I'll post a summary if there seems to be interest... kevin kevin@ucrmath.ucr.edu ...ucsd!ucrmath!kevin

What does "ftp site" mean? 1. Howard, did You notice a key on Your keyboard marked with something like "Carriage return", "Return" or the like? 2. An ftp site is a host on the usenet which runs an ftp deamon and allows other hosts (and especially users on those hosts) to access files on the local system. (Be aware that You'll need an account on such a host or the host has to provide an "anonymous" login to access specific files) 3. SIMTEL-20 has a host of cp/m software Josef Moellers | Nixdorf Computer AG USA: uunet!philabs!linus!nixbur!mollers.pad | Dept.

KEVIN:
The connector to run the internal monitor is just a loopback.
I do not know how the strapping went, but surely someone on the
net using an internal monitor can look at thiers and tell you.
Please gety in touch, I have misplaced your phone #, address, and
e-mail path, and I despeartely want to send you the bill for the
shipping.
