Subject: [*] Planet 8.1


PLANET 8.1 is an application in which your Macintosh computes the
coordinates of the planets visible to the naked eye (Mercury, Venus, Mars,
Jupiter and Saturn), the sun and the moon. The coordinates are given in
different coordinate systems: the geocentric ecliptic  and also the
equatorial  and horizontal  systems of the observer. Further you will see
the magnitude of the planets and the phase of the moon and also sidereal
time, mean solar time and the equation of time.
When a solar or lunar eclipse is possible you can also investigate the
eclipse from any place on earth. You can study heliacal risings and
settings of planets and stars and also conjunctions, planetary stations and
occultations. A special option in the program allows you to check the
visibility of the new and old moon crescent.Finally you can study the
transits of Mercury and Venus.

Included with PLANET is a small helper application, Mini Star Catalog,
containing a list of 410 bright and important stars. It is possible to
choose any star from the catalog and transfer it (one at a time) to PLANET
by drag and drop. Once the star is inside PLANET it will displayed by
coordinates updated for current precession and proper motion. Also it is
possible to study the heliacal rise and set of the star.

The program is freeware.

  Internet grocers may be fighting an uphill battle, but for Alex
  Hoffman, Netflix proves that an Internet business can best the
  near-ubiquitous video store. Derek Miller joins us to compare two
  Palm word processors, WordSmith and Word To Go. Mac OS X-only
  releases continue apace, with iDVD 2, Snapz Pro X 1.0.1, and
  Timbuktu Pro 6.0.1. Other important releases include iTunes 2,
  Netscape 6.2, and GraphicConverter 4.1, which support both
  operating systems.

Strangestein 3D

   This third encounter level for wolfenstein 3d was done using wolfedit
2.0.4, Stratavision 3d and Photoshop 5.5 . I have change most of the
characters, walls and objects. The characters were kept simple because
they loose a lot of definition when the image is reduced but i think the
results are still interesting.
Check it out and let me know what you think

Subject: Farallon installer needed

I am looking for an installer for an older Farallon PC Card Modem/ethernet
adapter. I got the card REAL cheap but it has no installer disk. The front
of the card says "Farallon LAN/Modem PC Card". It is a v.34 33.6 modem and a
10t Ethernet card. The barcode # is 000C5550610. Does anybody have the
installer file? Farallon's successor website doesn't have drivers for older
models.

TIA

John

Subject: MacSOHO

I have a G3 and just bought a Toshiba portable to be able to work with my
clients. Also bought a HP2000DN with the Ethernet option included.  To
transfer files between the Mac and the PC, MacSoho is pretty simple to
setup. I have a HUB and this is it. Both machines share the same internet
high speed connection to a telephone line and I can work on both at the same
time. The speed is good.

The beauty of MacSoho is that I can still use my high-speed ethernet line
without rebooting all the time.

Tried Timbuktu, but you cannot use it and the high-speed ethernet modem at
the same time.

The problem is the TCP/IP settings which is needed for both the modem and
Timbuktu.

Tried DAVE which is made by the same company which produces MacSoho (Thurby
Software), but it was difficult to setup.

Also, with MacSoho you do not alter the PC or almost none except adding a
new protocol for the ethernet card.

The price is only 50$ download and you can try before you buy for 30 days.
