We have adapted to the new industry standards of offering *ALL* original
photography--We weeded thru 1600 slides and chose 1,000 of them--This disc is
more of a T&A disc, most of the shots are outdoor and involve oceans, pools,
jacuzzi's etc--We have the following directories
a) Wet t-shirt, no panties, busty/no top, swimsuit, teasers, women with
women, full nudity *Standing, sideview,sitting*, boy with girl, bunshots,
nudity lying down, from the waist-up shots....200 text stories, and 200
MB of shareware as a bonus
b) Contains the 1993 image viewer, "SHOWOFF", click and zoom your favorite
part of the image <snicker-snicker>, and the classic CDMENU for text
story reading etc....
c) Very tame compared to previous works, but if you like a variety of women
and your a boob man, this disc will sure to please.

Thanks for the info, but that wasn't my problem. The disk I had it on
was Ecstasy Hot Pics, not the one(s) you mentioned. And I got it to run
fine, except that it bombed on several of the files while viewing.
Anyway, the info might be very useful to someone else who's in that
boat, so thanks anyway!

I personally think they are all pretty much the same...but then I look
at pornography differently from others: "You see one you see them all".
But then, I apply that phrase only to X to XXX-rated pictures...I
never like them. I love G to R-rated pictures better. I look at
photography rather than pornography.
I can tell you what NOT to buy...there are 2 Swimsuit disks I know of
that are ripoffs and 1 R/X-rated CD that don't worth poo-poo (another
word for the 4-lettered word starting with "S"). The 2 ripoff disks are
"Lovely Ladies 2" and "Women of Venus". The 1 XXX-rated CD that doesn't
worth hoot is "Digital Dreams".
Why they suck??? Well, first of all, the 2 swimsuit disks contain
duplicate files. They are the same pictures but different resolutions.
LL2 contains 94 2.35 megs each 24-bit 1024x768x16m BMPs (VPIC refused
to work), 400 1024x768x256 BMPs, and 400 640x480x256 BMPs of the same
crap. WOV contains 96 megs of useless Macintosh music files, 425 of 24-
bit 640x480x16m TIFs, 425 of 640x480x256 GIFs, and 425 of 320x200x256
GIFs of the same junk. WOV is even worst because the pictures are
extremely badly touched up (if they did touched up). Dark color covers
most of the pictures....and unbelievably you can see veins or blood
vessels covering their bodies. I am sure ALL picture viewing program
from ALL under-developed, low technology countries, allows you to view
1024x768 down to 640x480 and quite a few picture viewers are able to
cramp and view a full 1024x768 picture into a 640x480 screen.
The 1 R/X-rated Digital Dream I know of that sucks pretty bad because
it contains all 1024x768x256 GIFs but the worst of any kind
picture quality. Dark and lines-invested pictures on all pictures. And
most of the pictures are probably 640x480 but re-edited and cramped
into a little picture making it 1024x768. Well, they claim this disk is
a brand new release. MAYBE. Brand new but old scans using 1940's
scanners.
*
1 more worth mentioning but minor problem....Erotic Encounters Volume
1. It contains mostly XXX-rated pictures and over 250 corrupted,
unreadable GIFs.
Anyways, in my list of CDs, seems like the 7-disk Seedy ROM collection,
the 3-disk PC-PIX series, and the 4-disk (5?? actually because the 1st
disk is illegal on most states and definitely illegal anywhere in
Canada) Hot PIX series are worth the price. I like them because they
contain alot of those series of DS-F (DataShack), NLR/NLG (Nitelog
Imaging), LADYR/LDYR (Garlique), PICR/PICG (Prizm), and a whole lot
more R-rated Playboy Magazine type of pretty babes. But then, they
also contains quite of bit of those lousy Garby's Lounge, NightHawk,
and Laura's Lair amateur XXX-rated photos and alot of other BBSes'
XXX-rated pics.

I am not sure what kind problem is. But from my experience, you can try to
chenge the CD-ROM device program. There are two types of transfer driver in
MITSUMI drive. When I used DMA transfer I got stuck sometimes. So I cnhnged to
the software transfer driver. Then I was able to use it without any problem.
I am not specialist for CD-ROM drive but I just wanted to say from my problem
with my MITSUMI internal drive.
GOOD LUCK!!

I found the same thing on Busty Babes too. In one section that had

To everyone looking for shareware CD-ROMs:
You NEED to consider a new release called Shareware Explorer. Its an
excellent 4 disc set (3 DOS shareware and 1 Windows) covering up to
August of this year. Its very well laid out, no duplication, great file
selection... looks like a lot of care went into this set! One of our
customers said "I'm throwing away my Night Owls. I'll put these four in
my 6-CD changer, and a couple of specialty CDs, and my users will go
crazy!" when he got it. Give us a call about getting a copy at
306-789-4654!

P.S. Don't forget BB2 will be here soon!

My understanding is the program runs mosttly from the CD ROM, although it does

Yup. I'm trying to figure out what the problem is before my warranty
expires. Perhaps I've just got too much stuff crammed into my

That's because I've always hated those ads where the "sale ends Sunday
at Midnight!!!". Just a pet-peeve of mine. I'll just keep 'er rollin'

NN*Am considering purchasing a Mitsumi CD ROM and am wondering what kind of a

I'm using the ATI Stero F/X CD card. Sounds great, it is only an 8 bit
card but when plugged into a ghetto blaster I get great sound. The
card controls the Mitsumi so you save a slot.
This combo comes bundled together or sold separately.

Has anyone else had problems with their Mitsumi LU005 drive? I have two of
them. Both worked well for a few months, then one started to fail to
read SOME of my shareware discs. Sent one back for a replacement, and now
the same problem starts to appear: Drive light will light up and try
to access (read) the disc but fails to read, just keeps trying and
trying. Swapping the drives only between the two seemed to fix the
problem, but every now and then the drive on my bbs will not read the
disc for a download. I called Mitsumi and they are sending a new ribbon
cable. Any help is appreciated. Running WC v3.9, 1mb ram, MS DOS 6.
Thanks.

Mike:
The first package arrived today (Friday 9/17). The box had taken a hard blow
to the top resulting in the jewel case for one of the CDs being badly damaged,
tho' I think the CD is OK.
Here's an update for the list: Remove "Wicked" and "Amateur Models". The
brochures you enclosed were very helpful. Also, I'm really inetersted in the
"Interactive Adult Movie Alamnac" CD, but can't (won't) pay the MSRP of
$129.95. I'm sure you can do better - snail/net mail me your best price,
please.
I'll get to the first CD this weekend. Thanks!

The next time you talk with the photogs, ask them to consider some

FG> OK, that was a broad question, in more specific terms..

FG> go together), yes I am MPC compatible.
Oooops! Forgot to ask whether you're a sysop or an end-user. It's not a
BIG deal - but each has some unique considerations. If you're a sysop,
i.e. you're looking for a CD to add to your board PRIMARILY so your
users can download GIFs, you'll want a CD whose files aren't likely to
be encumbered by copyright. Not much attention was paid to this in the
past but it's rapidly becomming a REAL issue for sysops. Also, you'll be
looking for CDs which include text file(s) that provide descriptions of
the GIFs. Experienced sysops may have additional advice for you.
To avoid the copyright entanglement, you MUST stay with some of the
newer releases - i.e. 1993 pressings (tho' that in itself is no
guarantee). Safest bet it to check with the PRODUCER (not distributor or
dealer) to see if BBS usage is OK. To get the descriptive files, the CD
will need to be "BBS Ready" tho' this doesn't have a standardized
interpretation so you may have to do some tweaking to get said files
like you want/need them for your particular system.
If you're and end-user, apart from finding material to your liking -
a very personal choice - you might prefer a CD with a good "front end" -
i.e. a full-featured viewer/manipulator with some navigation
capabilities. For example, some of the more recent offerings have
integrated "point-and-click" catalogs where you can select an image for
viewing from a screen of miniaturized GIFs.
Since you said SVGA/256 color, you'll not be interested in 24-bit color
TIF of TGA files. These are beginning to show up in increasing numbers
of some of the more current releases so one would assume that their
popularity is on the rise. Accordingly, you can ignore this aspect of
candidate CDs (unless/until you upgrade your video configuration).
You also didn't mention animation files (GL/DL/FLI, etc.) nor the
so-called "interactive" CDs - tho' you did say you're MPC compatible
indicating perhaps some interest. Not being an aficionado of such
files/CDs myself, I'll leave this for someone else to fill in for you.
Bottom line: If this is your first adult CD, give "Busty Babes Volume 1,
Release 3" a try. It's GIFs are a bit dated, but it covers ALL of the
above bases - sysop and end-user alike. It can be had from dealers in
this echo for about $25-$30. It has a wide range of subject matter and
the BEST user font-end going (IMHO). Also, watch this echo for
upcoming new releases as some producers hang out here as well. Other
readers may have their own recommendations for you as well. Hope this
helps. Cheers!

Subj: Review of STAREware Refer: NONE
Read: [N/A] Private: No
First, many thanks to Mike Shannon of Starvector for providing a copy
of STAREware for review. Mike is one of those "special" dealers who
believe that CUSTOMERS come first. He proves this day in and day out
in many ways - by allowing us CUSTOMERS to get a look at CDs before
purchasing them; by allowing returns for unsatisfactory merchandise;
and by being an active participant in this echo. Thanks again, Mike!
This review is broken up into several posts and contains three major
sections: Statistics - the quantitative, measurable characteristics
of the CD; Operations - a more qualitative analysis of the
"usability" aspects of the CD which tries to consider factors of
interest to both the sysop and the end-user; and Visual - a purely
qualitative opinion of the intrinsic qualities of the images
themselves. Note that section boundaries are not inviolate. To
those of you whom have read some of my previous reviews of adult
CDs, you will be familiar territory with this one as well. If
you're a "new" reader, let me iterate: What follows is ONE PERSON'S
OPINION.
I have a few general comments I'd like to make about STAREware (SW)
and not feeling that any other place is more appropriate, I'll make
them here.
First, there is no identified producer of SW on the jewel box
inserts or the CD itself. No names, no addresses - nothing that
would tell you where this CD came from. Some of the more current
releases (e.g. from Florida Lion's Den) come with full
identification and even warranty/registration cards. This probably
isn't very important in the overall scheme of things, but when *I*
make something I'm proud of, I put my name all over it. I can't help
but wonder if there's a correlation here.
Secondly, the jewel inserts are pretty primitive and more
cartoon-like than one would expect for a CD of this type. While the
front insert is mildly amusing, it doesn't compare to the inserts
for Southern Beauties, for example. What I liked the least was that
the edges of the back insert are blank. When the cases of such CDs
are stored edgewise, there's no clue which CD is which. This makes
it more difficult to pick them out of a stack.
Statistics
==========
Examination of SW revealed 2441 GIFs and 14 TGA files. The GIF
files are of various resolutions, but mostly 640x480, with the
exception of the HIRES directory where the 800x600 and up GIF and
TGA files reside (all 142 of them). The GIFs average 176,659 bytes
in size - somewhat large for 640x480 resolution but explained by the
fact that the many of the files are full-screen in size. The GIF
files in HIRES average 327,022 bytes each; the TGA files about
580,923 bytes each. The TGA numbers are low because they're 15-bit
color, not 24-bit color.
I found only three pairs of duplicated files on the CD. A VERY low
number. However, when compared to my GIF name data base, there were
1647 "hits". The hit distribution was as follows:
Seedy 6-Pak 1012 7th Heaven 3
BB/R1 123 BB/R3 130
Ecstasy 111 FAO-2 313
FAO-3 339 FAO-Gold 167
PCPIX-1 656 PCPIX-2 18
PCPIX-3 1 Visual Fan. 143
Pork-1 126 Storm-3 157
Of the 794 non-hit names, 660 were found to have the dash character
"-" in the file name. Notwithstanding the fact that the ISO 9660
standard isn't supposed to permit this character (so I'm told),
there it was! When these "-" were changed to the underline character
"_" and the file names re-checked, an additional 473 hits were
recorded. Of the remaining non-hit files, visual examination
(admittedly an "iffy" process) resulted in only about 85 files being
identified as "new" - i.e. not appearing in any of the comparison
CDs. Bottom line: SW's GIF files are pretty much the same
collection that can found on most any of its contemporaries.
In addition to the GIFs and the TGA files, there are small
collections of animated GL, DL, and FLI files as well. The GL/DL
files number about 75-80 while there are 16 FLI files. More on
these in the Operations and Visual sections.

Operations - Sysop
==================
The GIF directories on SW are more or less divided up by "R" and "X"
ratings. The directories are named respectively R01-R04 and
X01-X11. Files within each rating are divided alphabetically across
the directories. Additionally, there's the HIRES directory with a
mixture of subject matter.
To say that there are file description listings on SW is a bit of an
understatement. There are three sets of descriptions in each of the
directories: FILES.BBS, FILES.LIS, and DESC.CD. FILES.BBS is the
"expanded" type of listing in that file sizes and dates are included
as follows:
Item Starts in col
---- -------------
File Name 1
File Size 15
Date Stamp 24
Description 34
The FILES.LIS (identical with the DESC.CD files) adheres to the
original "FILES.BBS" format of a file name beginning in column 1 and
a description that starts in column 14.
Additionally, there's a directory named FILELIST where a collection
of files with names corresponding to the directories resides. These
files also have the "expanded" format file lists in them. But hold
on - we're not done yet! There is also a file in the root directory
called STARE.TXT which contains descriptions for all the files on
the CD in the "expanded" format, but divided up by textual "header"
lines that precede each directories descriptions.
More importantly than file descriptions, in one of the "help" files
(more on these later), there is the statement: "Collected from a
variety of sources, these GIF pictures are believed to be
uncopyrighted and public domain. They were chosen as the best from
the thousands we reviewed...all fun & no work!" That statement
notwithstanding, several images had names that suggested otherwise
(e.g. PCAL0690 - Playboy calendar June 1990). Others clearly carried
embedded text from sources (e.g. Event Horizons) known to copyright
their material.
Bottom line for sysops: Caveat emptor!
Operations - End User
=====================
Outside of a small advisory concerning DL files on the inside from
cover, there's no installation instructions for the CD. A totally
naive user would be lost about where to begin. Even the XMENU
program (see below) doesn't offer any clues until you try to run it
the first time. A little more attention to these aspects would have
been helpful and appreciated.
Nonetheless, SW contains several features that end users will
appreciate. To begin, in the root directory are three programs
called, respectively, XHELP.EXE, XPRINT.EXE, and XMENU.EXE. Each is
a standalone program that can be run from the CD itself, certain
conditions having been met.
XHELP provides additional information about the CD, the files on it
(e.g. the quoted remark above), etc. It has a menu of 6-7 items, all
of which can be viewed/read in a few minutes.
XPRINT has the ability to print out any of several files, notably
the FILES.BBS files. Selections are likewise from a menu. A printer
is required as there is no provision to indicate an alternate
destination.
XMENU is potentially the most useful as it provides for file
selection from a DIR-like listing. A copy of the required VPIC
viewer is included on the CD but it must be copied to a HDD
directory in the DOS path, and it must be pre-configured for your
video setup. Those conditions being satisfied, XMENU will let you
navigate the CD's directories and choose images or animations for
viewing. There are, however, some limitations.
First, XMENU demands VPIC - it doesn't work with any other viewer. I
suppose you could try to fake XMENU out by installing another viewer
and naming it "VPIC.EXE" - I didn't try that. Secondly, XMENU seems
to lock VPIC in 640x480 mode. I have VPIC version 6.0g and it works
quite well with my S3 board up through 1024x768x256 and 640x480x16M
modes. I couldn't find any provision for accessing the higher
resolution modes through XMENU. Viewing aside, XMENU is Spartan in
its offerings. It can copy a selected file to the HDD, and pressing
the spacebar at the menu will call up the highlighted file's
description at the top of the screen, but that's about it. There's
no image manipulation, no slide show, AND all functions are keyboard
only - no mouse support.
XMENU will also run the GL and the FLI files for you from the CD.
DL files must be copied to the HDD before they can be viewed. (This
advisory is on the inside front cover of the jewel case and was
spoken about earlier.) It's worth noting that all the DL & GL files
on SW are repeated THREE times. The DL and GL files are in the
DLFILES, DLPLAY and GLFILES, GLPLAY directories, respectively. In
the ??FILES directories, each animation appears in both ZIP format
and a self-extracting EXE format. In the ??PLAY directories, the
files are in an uncompressed state, ready to use. (Note: the few FLI
files are in with the GL files.) Surely only one of each file (of
ANY type) would have been sufficient. Go figure.
Bottom line for end users: XMENU is better than nothing, but just
barely. In a world of SHOWOFF and GIFReed, it's an anachronism.

Visual
======
If you own virtually ANY other adult CD, you've been here before.
While the images are, as previously stated, generally large (e.g.
many are full-screen in size), they're also replete with BBS ads,
etc. Don't get me wrong; SW isn't a "bad" CD, it just doesn't have
anything new or different to offer. Its images are the same
(literally) as everyone else's and its user front end is all but
nonexistent. If you don't have any other CD, there are better ones
to start with - like Busty Babes with the SHOWOFF front end. BB's
images may be a bit tired, too, but SHOWOFF is state-of-the-art!
As for the animated files, the news is the same. There doesn't seem
to be much interest in the industry to make newer files of these
types. Perhaps the full-blown "interactive" CDs have made them
obsolete. Whatever the reason, if you're looking for some fresh
DL/GL/FLI titles, you won't find them here.
A couple of additonal notes on the animated front: First, the GL
file OBSESSED is in its own directory and plays flawlessly from the
CD. While this may seem a small thing, the other copies of OBSESSED
that are in the GL directories don't. OBSESSED isn't a new
animation, but it's one of the more interesting ones, artfully
mixing text and stills into a complete story - not just a bunch of
endlessly repeated images. Secondly, there is a directory named
CINDY wherein an animation resides that REQUIRES SoundBlaster
support. I don't have that on my system so I couldn't test it out.
The TGA files are 15-bit color and, while they don't duplicate any
of the GIF images, they aren't anything special either. In fact, at
least a few of them are recognizable as old GIF files that have been
converted to Targa format.
Bottom line: SW belongs in the class with PorkWare II and that ilk.
Unless your a adult-GIF history buff and want to add to your
collection (as some have suggested might be wise given the attention
to copyrights of late), take a PASS (yes, I spelled it right) on
this one.

Subj: Problem w/Groupware Tech Refer: NONE
Read: [N/A] Private: No
Ismail- I wonder if you might assist me with a drive problem I'm having. I
bought a Mitsumi LU005 from you in December '92. It has been acting up for
about a month now, and I'm unable to get relief from either Mitsumi tech
support or from your Groupware part-time tech support person.
After running for awhile, the drive will begin having problems with disk
access, whirring repeatedly, and finally giving me the following error
messages (at various times):
CDR101: Not ready reading drive E
Abort, Retry, Fail
File read/write error -
Drive may be open or disk unformatted
CDR103: CDROM not High Sierra or ISO-9660 format reading drive E
Abort, Retry, Fail
In all cases, it had been working fine with the inserted disk for awhile,
but then crashes. After failing, the drive will refuse to read any other
disks (software or audio) for awhile, then seems to straighten itself back
out after the system is rebooted a few times with no disk in the drive.
Please note that I HAVE tested for conflicts by booting the system with
clean boot-up files and no TSRs, but the problem persists.
The two disks which seem to have given it the most headache are adult
shareware disks: Smutware, and Ecstasy Hot Pics. I suspect that these are
causing problems because they have a higher density of files than other
disks which I've had no problem with (misc Toolworks things, Cinemania,
Graphics Works, Time Almanac). Several people have indicated that the
Mitsumi seems to have problems with such disks at times if it's not
functioning quite right.
I downloaded the latest Mitsumi drivers from CompuServe and contacted the
Mitsumi tech support department. They had me make a couple of changes to my
CONFIG.SYS driver line, but with no change in the problem. After that, they
indicated that it must be a problem with the disk or drive. I've tried the
disk in another (non-Mitsumi) drive and had no problem. They suggested that
I contact the vendor where I purchased the drive (ie: you).
I've tried SEVERAL times to resolve this with your tech support department.
The first time, he indicated that there was nothing he could do unless I
sent my system to your location so they could test the drive in it. Right.
Like I'm going to package up an otherwise functional, loaded tower system
and expect it to be functional when it returns...
Thinking it might be the disk, I returned the first one in exchange for the
second. When I called your tech person again, he indicated (rightly so) that
he couldn't do anything unless I had a disk which could recreate the error.
So I waited until receiving the second disk. When it caused problems too, I
tried calling back, only to be told that the tech person wasn't in and that
they'd have him call me. No call. I called back several days later and was
told that he only works part-time in the evening. I called again yesterday
(Saturday) and was told that he was *supposed* to be in, but wasn't, and
they expected him any time now. Left name and number again for him to call.
As of this evening, I have heard nothing back.
Since this drive is still under warranty, I want to have it fixed or
replaced as soon as possible so that I can adequately test the repaired or
replaced drive before my warranty expires. I am unable to get this taken
care of over the phone, so I will leave a message for you here, and will
forward a copy via USPS and/or FAX to the Groupware office. Please contact
me as soon as possible; on this conference, by mail, or by phone:
PO Box 11319, Kansas City, MO 64112-0319
(Work) 913-888-5201 ext.257 (M-F 8a-4p Central time)
For your reference, the date of invoice was 12/03/92 and the order number
was 764.

I have a request. What is the best
1. Hetero [read Jill not John]
2. Nudity [Not offended if some sex on it], Playboy style.
3. GIFs, JPG [much smaller files], optional movie/animation
I can do 24bit in 640x480 and 256c upto 1024x768. I have a sound card and
have an interest in a multimedia style presentation. I have an LU-002
mitsumi and haven't had any problem reading CDs [except ones with encoded
audio tracks {BattleChess MPC}] but I've heard of problems with mitsumis
reading 600+mb disks. Any adult CDs fall into this category?
I don't own any adult CDs but would like to own one that is well made.
Image quality is paramount [no bad quality scans, etc...]. I'd prefer one
with 24bit scans and/or one with 1024x768 256c scans. JPEGs would be a
plus [especially if compressed from 24bit originals].
Any votes for something in this range?
Mike

If not this would be a good idea for someone to work on.
It would be nice if users could look up a subject, read it, and if
needed, to have it zipped up to be able to download it. No need for PICS
or SOUNDCARDS, Straight TEXT/ANSI/@ANSI@. Would be nice it it would
work for multi-line systems also.
Other cd's for BBS's would be great. Such as Reference Librarys,

This would help make BBS's more then just files, mail, and door games.

It would be cheaper to swap that sound card than your CD-ROM drive. I
know of 2 cards that support the 005S directly. I am using the Sound
Pro FX (16 bit, SB Pro II, Adlib, Covox, and Disney compatible, runs
Mitsumi 005S or Panasonic CR521/522 CD-ROMs directly on the card). Got
it for $149.95 Canadian, so it should be about $125 US. Works great!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SHOWOFF doesn't/can't display them because the GIF isn't really on the
CD, just in the catalog. My unconfirmed suspicion is that a few GIFs
were deleted at the last minute AFTER the catalogs had already been
generated. Recall, this release (#3) was brought out, at least in part,
to assuage some problems with copyrights. Discretion being the better
part of valor, probably some last minute deletes were made. Some
examples that would seem to fit this paradigm are the L_TERRI0 through
L_TERRI8 GIFs in the BUSTY4 directory. The model is Teri Weigel:
ex-Penthouse Pet and current XXX actress. She/Her studio probably owns
all the rights to all of her images making it kinda "iffy" (to say the
least) to put them on a CD. Ask Lee Noga...

Many thanks to Mike Shannon of Starvector for providing a copy of
the adult CD Erotic Encounters 2 for review.
This review is broken up into several posts and contains four major
sections: General - Miscellaneous comments that didn't seem to
belong in any other section; Statistics - the quantitative,
measurable characteristics of the CD; Operations - a more
qualitative analysis of the "usability" aspects of the CD which
tries to consider factors of interest to both the sysop and the
end-user; and Visual - a purely qualitative opinion of the intrinsic
qualities of the images themselves. Note that section boundaries
are not inviolate.
To those of you who have read some of my previous reviews of adult
CDs, you will be familiar territory with this one as well. If
you're a "new" reader, let me iterate: I am NOT an expert (whatever
that is) on adult (or any other kind of) CDs. Accordingly, what
follows is ONE PERSON'S OPINION.
General
=======
The front jewel case insert of the review issue Erotic Encounters 2
(EE2) is bears a picture of a very lovely lady in lingerie and a
Mardi Gras-style mask. Besides the title, this cover also has a
ridiculous price printed on it plus the curious phrase "Banned in
the USA". How can that possibly be true? I certainly didn't get
this copy from the underground or black market! Looks and sounds
like just so much more "Madison Avenue" hype to me. There is also an
anonymous warranty registration card pre-addressed to Clayton, CA
(another curiosity) promising a $20 gift certificate (for what
isn't stated) if the registration is returned. Most unusual, a
second card is included to be redeemed for a FREE CD-ROM from
another anonymous address, this time in Columbus, OH. The free
CD-ROM ($2 for shipping) is identified as "PC Paramedic(tm)
Diagnostic CD-ROM" (sic) supposedly a $79.95 value. Some brief text
is included regaling its capabilities. Another $15 is solicited for
a "CD-ROM Surprise grab bag" - returnable if not completely
satisfied.
The back jewel case insert has several proclamations of its own.
There is a bold warning to the effect that the pictures contained on
the CD are sexually explicit and shouldn't be viewed by those
offended by such material. There is a one-line "installation
instruction" which proved mostly accurate. There is a statement of
requirements - PC compatible and a 512K VGA video. There is an
identification of the CD's producers as Peek-A-Boo Entertainment in
Chicago, IL - which is why I called the other addresses "curious".
In other CD's, notably those from Florida Lion's Den and Graphical
Images of Florida, all included correspondence is pre-addressed to
them, not some third-party go-between. Personally, I LIKE knowing
whom I'm doing business with.
Most questionable is the statement: "This is not your average adult
CD-ROM disk!" As we shall see in the Statistics section, this
statement is open to interpretation.
Finally, the producers DID put titles on the edges of the back
insert so that identification of the CD in a stack or while the
jewel case is stored on its edge is possible. Thank you Peek-A-Boo.
Statistics to follow...
... File not found, I'll load something *I* think is interesting.

Statistics
==========
Tabulation of EE2's GIFs totaled 3323 usable pictures, counting
neither the "catalog" GIFs (more on these in Operations), nor the 8
miscellaneous GIFs in the MENU directory. The requirements
previously mentioned as stated on the back cover are generally
adequate as MOST of the GIFs are 640x480x256 (or thereabouts).
However, there are a number of 800x600 resolution GIFs and even 63
(by actual count) 1024x768 GIFs. A 512K video board won't handle
the latter ones without "panning" (see Operations). The GIFs
average 152,890 bytes each - a healthy size for a 640x480 GIF.
I found NO duplicated files through examination of either file names
or file sizes. That doesn't guarantee there aren't any, just that
my processes didn't detect any. It's worth saying that several GIFs
with names other than what I was accustomed to associating them with
were found on EE2. That is, there's been some re-naming along the
way somewhere by somebody.
Comparison of EE2's file names to the ones in my GIF name data base
was, shall we say, revealing. For the first time, I got a 100% hit
count! That is to say, there was NOT ONE SINGLE FILE NAME on EE2
that wasn't already represented by one or more other CDs in the data
base. Sort of calls into question the producers' statement about
EE2 not being an "average" adult CD. In my opinion, as far as the
GIF selection is concerned, "average" is an understatement. EE2
does have redeeming qualities - more on this in Operations.
The hit list from my data base comparison was as follows:
Seedy 6-Pak 3219 7th Heaven 4
BB1/R1 131 BB1/R3 108
Ecstasy 102 FAO-2 276
FAO-3 382 FAO-Gold 262
PCPIX-1 358 PCPIX-2 13
PCPIX-3 26 Visual Fan. 129
Pork Ware I 67 Storm-3 257
Note that there were only 104 (3323-3219=104) files on EE2 NOT found
on one of the six CDs in Seedy ROM 6-Pak. Now while some may say
that it isn't fair to compare a single disk with a set of six, let's
remind ourselves that Seedy has been out for several months - EE2 is
a current release. For a "new" CD to replicate 97% of the files on
an older (by at least several months) CD represents a classic case
of re-hashing.
Operations to follow...

Operations - Sysop
==================
There are 31 directories on EE2: "0" through "Z" hold the GIFs where
the directory name represents the first letter in the GIF name (save
"0" where all files whose names begin with a number are stored).
Additionally, there is the CATALOG directory where all the "catalog"
GIFs are; the MENU directory where the GIFReed program resides along
with its support files; the TEXT directory where the text file
descriptions are (text file names are d.BBS where "d" is the
directory name - filename.GIF in column 1 and descriptions beginning
in column 15); and the VIEWERS directory where other GIF viewers and
graphics tools programs are in ZIP format. The VIEWERS directory
also has a FILES.BBS file except it's the "expanded" type which
includes file sizes and date stamps.
Given the above and what I've picked up by reading this echo, I'd
guess one could call this CD "BBS Ready" from a mechanical
standpoint if the file description files' format suits the sysop's
needs, or can be made to do so.
The back jewel box insert makes a statement to the effect that the
producers believe the GIFs to be free of copyright entanglements. I
leave it to the sysops to judge the efficacy of that statement given
the 100% hit ratio mentioned in the Statistics section.
Operations - End User
=====================
To begin, the reverse side of the front jewel box insert is stamped:
"MS DOS 6.0 Notice:" A poorly printed (i.e. faint on the review
copy) statement follows saying that the ASSIGN command is required
but not included with DOS 6.0 and therefore DOS 6.0 users may have
to use an alternate viewer. This notice was hidden by the inclusion
of the warranty card and the "free CD" card mentioned earlier. I
suppose it's reasonable to assume that the purchaser would find this
notice sooner or later, but it seemed to me to be a weak attempt to
inform the user of potential problems.
That warning notwithstanding, I followed the instruction to log to
my CD drive and type "INSTALL". This brings the immediate response
that two parameters are required. (Recall, I said in the General
section that the installation instructions were MOSTLY correct.) One
has to specify the drive letters of the CD drive and the
installation drive. The net result of a successful installation is
that a customized EROTIC.BAT file is written to the \DOS directory
of the installation drive. Since the \DOS directory is VERY likely
to be in the DOS path, entering "EROTIC" from anywhere will start
things rolling.
Now about that ASSIGN warning...I run DOS 6.0 and while its "help"
facility denies knowing anything about this command, the installed
.BAT file works flawlessly. Others may not be so lucky. I'm no DOS
guru so I can't offer much in the way of explanations.
Here's where the fun begins! The ONLY thing (in my opinion) that
would keep EE2 from being your "average" adult CD is the file
viewer/manipulator that INSTALL activates. It's a shareware version
(4.12) of GIFReed - one of the new breed of point-and-click front
ends for image-oriented CD. (SHOWOFF on Busty Babes V.1/R.3 and GDS
are other examples.) This is the viewer that I panned in my review
of Digital Dreams some weeks back. Well, either the producers of
EE2 knew how to use GIFReed better, or this is an updated version,
or something, but results this time are MUCH improved in certain
sectors.
To begin on a positive note, the catalog images (remember the
CATALOG directory?) are considerable larger and much clearer, likely
thanks to heavy anti-aliasing during their generation. Secondly,
only about one inch of screen real estate is hogged by a repetitious
(and still useless IMO) title, not almost half a screen as with the
case of Digital Dreams.
Secondly, while I probably didn't fully explore the GIFReed on
Digital Dreams, this version seemed to have more functionality.
There's lots of image manipulation functionality and of course the
point-and-click interface is state-of-the-art. This is a slick,
mouse-driven interface, folks. It's hard to imagine any function
that 99% of the users would want that isn't already included (at
least in the registered version). Of particular note to those with
only 512K video systems (recall, there's a number of 1024x768 images
on EE2), panning large images is a no-brainer. After getting the
image on the screen, just push and hold the left mouse button and
the image is "grabbed" such that it follows all mouse movements -
QUICKLY! This is a MUCH better and easier to use method than the
usual arrow-key or PgUp/PgDn methods supported by a lot of viewers.
Now for the gripes: The included shareware version of GIFReed is too
crippled to permit a full evaluation before registering it. There
are no less that five annoying beeps or messages at EROTIC.BAT
startup, PLUS a repeating beep/notice from GIFReed every time a
directory of more than 25 images is selected. Further, the
"NON-REGISTERED" notice on the screen (common in shareware)
F-L-A-S-H-E-S constantly when anything but a image is on the screen.
Most annoying, which I suppose is its purpose, but also
self-defeating if it's meant to encourage me to register!
Since this is a holistic review of EE2, I don't want to concentrate
on this shareware version of GIFReed too much. Still, it's worth
saying that if a shareware author wants ME to evaluate his efforts
with an eye towards purchase/registration, don't give me a crippled
version to look at. The very thing that's left out or disabled
might be just the function I'm most interested in, and the author
will miss out. I register shareware I use because it's fair and
because I want the benefits of registration like technical support,
new release notices or versions at reduced costs, etc. I DON'T
register shareware to get functionality that should've been there in
the first place.

Well, here we go again - how do you spell "re-hash"? E-r-o-t-i-c
E-n-c-o-u-n-t-e-r-s 2, that's how. Image-wise, this CD has nothing
going for it that LOTS of other CDs of its kind don't have, but
nothing against it either that they don't also have: tired images
full of BBS ads, and perhaps some questionable copyrights. There're
no animated files, nor any text "story" files which some of its kin
have - whether this is a blessing or a curse is up to each purchaser
to decide. What EE2 DOES have is GIFReed and this nifty product
(judged by the version and catalog images on the review CD), can
make looking at even tired images a more pleasant experience.
The images are, by and large, good clear scans - many of which are
full- or near-full screen in size. If you've seen virtually ANY
other adult CD, certainly any of the comparison CDs, you'll
recognize the works of the BBSs that produced them, (that's the good
news) if not the images themselves (that's the bad news).
Bottom line: Check the hit list again. If you don't have any
apparent high duplication ratio with any of the comparison CDs you
may already own, EE2 is not a bad purchase if for no other reason
than to get a look at GIFReed and a "free" CD. If you already have
Busty Babes V.1/R.3 (and therefore SHOWOFF), you may want to
reconsider. The two programs (GIFReed and SHOWOFF) aren't identical
by any means, but they both are paving the way to the future in user
front-ends for image CDs. BTW: a thorough head-to-head comparison of
the full-blown versions of each of these two fine programs would be
worth reading if one had the means, time, and inclination to perform
same and tell us all about it! Any takers???

Many thanks to Mike Shannon for providing a copy of the adult CD Girls
of Vivid - Volume 1 (GOV1) for review.
This review is broken up into several posts and contains four major
sections: General - Miscellaneous comments that didn't seem to
belong in any other section; Statistics - the quantitative,
measurable characteristics of the CD; Operations - a more
qualitative analysis of the "usability" aspects of the CD which
tries to consider factors of interest to both the sysop and the
end-user; and Visual - a purely qualitative opinion of the intrinsic
qualities of the images themselves. Note that section boundaries
are not inviolate.
To those of you who have read some of my previous reviews of adult
CDs, you will be familiar territory with this one as well. If
you're a "new" reader, let me iterate: I am NOT an expert (whatever
that is) on adult (or any other kind of) CDs. Accordingly, what
follows is ONE PERSON'S OPINION.
General
=======
This CD is the product of Vivid Digital, apparently a separate
marketing arm of the adult movie company called Vivid Video. This
CD's packaging is as slick as it gets. The front insert is folded
double - the outside providing and interesting cover while the
inside does some marketing for other Vivid Digital products. There
is also a warranty registration page. The back insert has system
requirements (stated as a minimum of a 386-20 with 2Mb RAM, VGA
monitor, DOS 5.0 with 2 Mb expanded memory, and a 100% SoundBlaster,
AdLib, or MediaVision sound card, and a mouse). These requirements
are incomplete and are an understatement to say the least, as we
shall see in Operations. Interestingly enough, this CD is supposed
to be Macintosh-compatible as well. Minimum Mac requirements are
given as a 68020 CPU, 2Mb RAM, 16-bit video and monitor, and System
6.x or 7.x.
There is a one-line installation instruction which is mostly
correct. Finally, the edge of the back inserts shows the title of
the CD making it easy to identify in a stack or when stored on its
edge. Thanks, Vivid, for this small but much appreciated touch.

Statistics
==========
The GOV1 CD is unlike any other adult CD I've seen. All 505 of its
images are in compressed TIF (CTIF) format. In all they occupy some
636,687,610 bytes making their average size about 1,260,768 bytes.
This is an important point, as we shall see.
There are 15 directories on GOV1, 13 for the CTIF images, one
(ASCII) for the file descriptions, and one (INSTALL) that holds the
viewer programs before installation.
There was no need to look for duplicates nor to make a comparison
against the GIF name data base. The files in each of the 13 CTIF
image directories are simply numbered 1.TIF, 2.TIF, etc. While
there's not an equal number of files in each directory, arithmetic
tells us that there are about 40 images in each one - though some
have over 50. At any rate, this is a relatively unimportant matter.
The directory names are apparently shortened forms of already
released Vivid Video adult movies. Examples are: ARMYBRAT, TORRID,
and ENDLESS to name a few. Again, this is of little or no
consequence in the full scheme of things.

Operations - Sysop
==================
This is a null topic for several reasons, the most obvious being
that all of this CD's images are copyrighted by Vivid Digital and
therefore extremely unlikely to be legitimately usable on a BBS.
That aside, the single file description text file in the ASCII
directory is practically worthless being in a completely foreign
format, not even within shouting distance of FILES.BBS. Finally
there's the matter of the images being in CTIF format. Few viewers
are available which can decode and display a compressed TIF image.
BBS users accustomed to the convenience of GIFs would likely be
turned off(see below!).
Operations - End User
=====================
The installation procedure is (almost) correct. Simply log to the CD
and enter INSTALL. Gotcha! Just like the procedure for Erotic
Encounters 2, one must provide the drive letters for the CD-ROM
drive and the HDD where the programs necessary for viewing will be
copied. That being done, no less than about 1.3 Mb of files are
placed in the PICBASE directory (created on the fly) of the
installation drive. Entering "GO" at this point gets things moving.
This is the point where one discovers that one's video setup must be
VESA compliant for "true color". This important bit was left out of
the requirements printed on the back insert of the jewel case.
Having met that requirement, I pressed on undaunted (Silly me!).
Aside from some support files (actually for both GOV1 and GOV2), the
installation procedure copies just two programs to the HDD: PICVIEW
(a viewer) and PICBASE (a menu program savvy about the configuration
of GOV1). At "GO", PICBASE loads and sucks up the file description
file from the ASCII directory. In spite of the stated mouse
requirement, I could only get the PICBASE to respond to the cursor
movement keys. As the complete list of 505 files appears in the
single menu table, there's no need for, nor any provision for
navigation around the various directories. One simply highlights
the desired file by moving a "bar" with the keys, hits Enter and
then.... waits... and waits... and waits... and waits... and
waits... and finally waits some more before a faded, bluish,
somewhat smallish still from one of Vivid's adult movies appears on
the screen. (More on this in Visual)
Now my PC's not the fastest in the world but it doesn't exactly
crawl either. It's a 486-DX2/66 with 8 Mb RAM - 3Mb given over to
Smartdrv and the rest to XMS memory. My first selection (and damn
near my last as well) was a file listed as 1815 Kb in size. It took
PICVIEW 2:09 to decode it and display it. That's TWO MINUTES AND
NINE SECONDS!! I tried a smaller file - 596 Kb. It required a mere
43 seconds to display. Recalling that the average size of these
CTIF images is about 1,261 Kb, we're lookin' at an average decode
time of 90 seconds. Friends and neighbors, if *I* am going to wait
90 seconds to see an picture of ANY kind appear on my computer
screen - it'd better be a wingdinger! Unfortunately, IMO, the images
of GOV1 don't make the cut.
Understand, painful as it was, I did do more than 1-2 measurements.
I also watched the access light on my "normal speed" Sony drive - it
flickered a lot indicating that it wasn't the sole source of the
delays. Maybe PICVIEW is just a poor implementation of the CTIF
decoding algorithms - can't say because (a) there's no information
provided about the program (not even a READ.ME file) and (b) I don't
know a thing about the technology. (Perhaps some graphics guru on
the echo can fill us in.) Whatever the causes, the stated
requirements of a 386-20 with 2Mb of RAM and 2 Mb of expanded memory
would seem to be somewhat understated - kinda like saying that
Windows will run on a '286. PICVIEW does warn the user each time a
file is selected for display that decompression may take a few
minutes. My opinion is that Vivid Digital goofed big time in
selecting CTIF for its CDs. I certainly don't have the patience for
these protracted waits and I doubt many others will either.
I should add that PICVIEW provides a slide show capability (but can
you imagine USING it?), and a "magnification" capability via the +/-
keys. There's also some rather limited image movement capability
while viewing and image via the cursor keys.
To complete this section, it's worth recalling that the minimum
system requirements also called for one of three sound cards,
presumably to play back sound recorded with each of the images. I
don't have a sound card so I couldn't evaluate this aspect of the
CD.

-> How about a price, size mb of the discs, file dates, catagories.
Hi Randy!
We've got it for $59US or $79Cdn (and will match any advertised
price + take 5% off if its less). It contains 26000 files, and around
2.5 Gigabytes. File dates range from '91 to August '93 - so recent that
my husbands bulletin board just received a file from the SDN network
that was already on this set of discs! Categories are graphics, icons,
applications, sounds, games, education, communications, business,
hobbies, database, text/word processing, cooking, music, ham radio,
personal finance, utilities, programming, fonts, video, and more! 3
discs are MS-DOS shareware and 1 is Windows shareware. Everyone who has
bought it from us is raving that its one of (if not the) best they've
had. If you're interested in a copy, give us a call at 306-789-4654, or
fax us at 306-789-8690.
Thanks,
.\\ichellea

Sorry I haven't gotten back with you sooner. I haven't had time to read the

I haven't called you back voice because I have a hard time understanding you
due to your heavy accent. I have been meaning to drop you a note, but I have
also managed to misplace your address. I shipped your order to you by US mail
shortly after i received your money order. I usually don't or can't insure
orders to Canada so I am not sure what happened to it.
If you will netmail me your address to 1:362/119 or leave it for me here, we'll

And you won't have any trouble with PCJ. Don't just go on one person's word.
This was a common problem when shipping stuff out of the US. Sometimes the
orders will go bye bye and you won't know what happened to them. I shipped an
order to England a couple weeks ago, and the guy didn't hear anything of it for
3 weeks and I called him long distance twice to assure him it was sent. Turns
out customs has a problem with something and had it all the time, and once this

The Mitsumi drive needs the proprietary controller which it comes with.
If you're looking for a drive to work with your SB card, SoundBlaster
has introduced a new 'OmniCD' which sells for $299 at CompUSA in Phila.
The OmniCD meets MPC2 standards - 320ms access time, 300kb/s transfer
rate, Photo-CD (multi session) ready, and daisy chainable for up to 4
ROM drives on your one controller. The drive's still made by Panasonic.

Boris,
I recently asked to be put on your list and have wondered if you received
my request! I would like to see some of those great deals you talk about
sometimes. I know that I told you a couple of weeks ago that I would call
and place a COD order but my dentist said he wanted some money for some ODD
reason.Hehehe....I guess pulling all of my teeth out and preparing a set of
dentures is a little costly, but I will have some extra cash by the end of
the month and would like to "give" you some of it!

At any rate, I was interested inthe above 2 cds. Do you have a BBS

Thanks for the explaination. I love copyright law. Can you just
imagine a court hearing on the subject of GIF's on BB. You'd need
a "take a number machine" at the front door of the court room, when the
discussion turned to poolstick handles and champagne bottles. I bet
the smoke alarm would go off and they would need to evacuate the building.
I wonder if Lee Noga has thought about a "Fire Sale".

Hi Paul,
Just checked out the total fantasy cd, got it from Mike Shannon at
Starvector. Good price, super service! Anyway, I personally really
like it, high quality scans, does have a lot of different pix on it
and an excellent variety if animations. Lots of directories...Even
the descriptions are different..Would rank it up there with BBabes.
Liked it better than Ecstasy Hot Pix or FAO. Not for the timid.

Just got the cd's. They are great! How much longer do you think you can keep
the Pioneer 600A at this price? Is it true that Pioneer is planning on
discontinueing it? I want a second one if you get the price down a bit (or
give a choice of a couple of cd's). I need to see if I can find the money.
Hopefully by xmax.

Heather, I hope you get all this figured out and corrected. I wrote to

I had Mitsumi tech send me a new ribbon cable. Have not needed to swap

I would appreciate you letting me in on the answers. Thanks.

Already sent money order off for those CD's are you still going to sell them

All this porno must be nice for -someone-, but IMHO, if you've seen one picture
of a girl doing whatever, you've seen them all. (And some folks should try a
REAL woman for a change, and get away from the screen for a while.)
How about reviews of non-porno CDs. I think there's a bigger market for that.
How many dupes? FILES.BBS compatible? New or old software? Layouts?
Junky files? Too many ANSI's? Something like that would be invaluable to
sysops, and the non-porn CD purchasers out there.
Just my $0.02 worth...

Don't know that I have all of this exactly, but SIC is Standard Industry
Classification. There is a number assigned to all types of manufacturing
businesses. If you want attorneys then you are out of luck. I think
there are also sales organizations, such as retail lumber suppliers. For
example ready mixed concrete is something like 5321I, but other building
materials having similar numbers. Once upon a time, I found a list on a
BBS but it wasn't very complete. Go to the library and get a copy, or
contact a company like American Business Lists and they will send you a
catalog of their lists by SIC code.

"Ripoffs" in what way ? How can one vary a swimsuit disc--Im curious because we
have acquired the rights to the Venus '94 Pageant just held in Tampa, and will
have this disc on the market this year--
Our BB Vol II is mostly T&A too.....nothing crude...perhaps are you disapointed

he is giving a deal on becoming a member of his BBS. One of the OLDEST BBS's

at (304)744-7322. The BBS number for P-80 Information Systems is
(304)744-2253. If you want more information on the CD itself, go to a
newstand and look for PC-Computing (OCTOBER 93 ISSUE). It was reviewed and
rated #3 in the Unusual CD's Available. To find out more about P-80 (formerly
known as Pirate-80), you can sift thru the Newweek archives, they were
mentioned several times there as a prodominate Underground Board...As well as
on the Phil Donahue show. Anyway----The disc is great if you are into the

Subj: Review of PGG1 Refer: NONE
Read: [N/A] Private: No
Many thanks to Ismail Arslangiray of GroupWare in Tacoma, WA for
providing a copy of the adult CD "PGG1" for review.
This review is broken up into several posts and contains four major
sections: General - Miscellaneous comments that didn't seem to
belong in any other section; Statistics - the quantitative,
measurable characteristics of the CD; Operations - a more
qualitative analysis of the "usability" aspects of the CD which
tries to consider factors of interest to both the sysop and the
end-user; and Visual - a purely qualitative opinion of the intrinsic
qualities of the images themselves. Note that section boundaries
are not inviolate.
To those of you who have read some of my previous reviews of adult
CDs, you will be familiar territory with this one as well. If
you're a "new" reader, let me iterate: I am NOT an expert (whatever
that is) on adult (or any other kind of) CDs. Accordingly, what
follows is ONE PERSON'S OPINION.
General
=======
PGG1 is visibly an unconventional adult CD right from the git-go. To
begin, except for its acronym-like name of "PGG1" (which
unfortunately begs to be pronounced "PIG-1" or "PIGGY-1"), there is
absolutely NOTHING printed on the CD itself. Further, there are no
jewel case inserts save a postcard-like "registration card w/survey"
packed inside the back panel (addressed to GroupWare) that promises
a $20 gift certificate in exchange for its return. There is neither
installation nor execution instructions, no descriptive text,
nothing that further identifies the CD or hints at its contents. The
neophyte CD user could be completely lost with respect to where to
begin or what to do first. Fortunately, Yours Truly did not have
that problem. (see Operations)
Statistics
==========
Tabulation of PGG1's contents reveals a total of 2448 GIFs of
various resolutions totaling some 410 Mb. This gives a healthy
average GIF size of about 167 Kb, the validity of which is born out
by the large number of 800x600x256 scans on the CD. There are also
30 JPG files totaling about 3 Mb for an average size of around 96
Kb. These files decompressed into impressive looking scans
indicating a JPEG compression factor likely somewhere between 25%
and 50%. There are also 21 either FLI or self-executing GL
"animation" files.
I found about 3% file duplication among the GIFs. This was most
rampant in the ?_ART directories, but it cropped up in several
others as well. As annoying as the real duplicates were the "near
duplicates" - files which technically weren't twins, but which
varied so slightly from each other (e.g. position of a hand) that
they might as well have been.
Due to the file naming conventions used on the CD, there was no need
to compare PGG1's file names against the GIF file name data base to
search for possibly re-hashed files. (however, see Visual).
Also worth mentioning is the presence of a number of corrupted files
on PGG1. While I didn't view every scan in every directory, I did
look at quite a few and several directories had one or more (some
quite a few) corrupted files - files that would only partially or
not at all display on the screen. The magnitude of this defect on
PGG1 is nowhere near that of Erotic Encounters I. Still, it is
aggravating and, as proven by other producers, avoidable. CUSTOMERS
should NOT have to pay for defective merchandise.

Operations - Sysop
==================
This is a null consideration as most every scan on PGG1 bears some
form of a copyright notice. Moreover, while there is no specific,
general warning given against BBS usage, for example a declaration
in a READ.ME file, some GIFs have an embedded comment making it
clear that further distribution requires written permission. It's
therefore dubious that the producers intended for this CD to be used
on a BBS. Further evidence of the validity of that interpretation
is the total lack of any BBS-useful text files describing the scans.
Operations - End User
=====================
Unconventionality strikes again! The only viewer included on PGG1 is
called WIN_JPG which, somewhat obviously, only runs under Windows.
Despite its name, in addition to decompressing and displaying JPG
files, WIN_JPG will also display GIF, TIF, TGA, PCX, and BMP files.
Its interface is very much like that of WINGIF (surprise, surprise)
but it has somewhat different image manipulation functionality.
WINGIF's capabilities seem more focused on the dimensional aspects
of the image; WIN_JPG seems more focused on the intrinsic aspects
like color balance, contrast, HSV, etc. WIN_JPG is a serviceable,
fairly speedy viewer for Windows, and it will execute directly from
its CD directory without the need to "install" anything on the HDD.
This may help to explain the lack of any installation instructions,
but a word to that effect would have been nice. Again, naive users,
particularly naive Windows users (no, I'm not being redundant) would
probably go ahead and copy the program files to their HDD -
presuming they could get that far in the first place.
PGG1 has 34 directories including 29 for GIFs and 1 each for the JPG
scans, the WIN_JPG viewer, the animation files, some fairly
purposeless text files (more on these later), and 1 completely empty
directory (PGG_GIFF). In general, directory names seem to have been
well-chosen. However, this time it's inconsistency that rears its
head. Several directories (e.g. \FEET, \TATTOO, \PIERCING) hint at
the SUBJECT MATTER of their scans while others (e.g. CMR, TFA_001,
PGG_1) are discovered to indicate the ORIGINS of their scans. While
this obviously isn't a "biggie", I think it further points up, shall
I say, the inexperience of the CDs producers, the lack of which
caused them to either not recognize or ignore the "touches" that
intrinsically identify a product as "professional".
The aforementioned text files are in the \INFO sub-directory of
\CMR. They are descriptive files for the scans in \CMR, but instead
of the FILES.BBS format (or anything remotely resembling it), these
files look more like the files descriptions one sees on CSERVE in
the CORNER or PICS forums. It's worth noting that the scans in \CMR
all have the GIF89a embedded comments in them that are essentially
redundant with the text in these files.

Visual
======
If this CD's rather terse and non-obvious name is curious, trying to
delve it's clouded identity is downright perplexing! What makes an
adult CD "adult"? Nudity? PGG1 certainly has that - and of both
sexes. Graphic sex? PGG1 pretty much misses on this one unless you
count exhibitionism and touching/caressing. What if, in addition to
the nudity, there are scans of churches, landscapes, etc.? PGG1 has
a number of those as well. How about "swimsuit GIFs"? PGG1 has its
share of those, too. What do they do for/against a particular CD's
identity? Your guess is as good as mine.
The majority of PGG1's scans are of nude women, with lesser numbers
of what I call "Hard R" scans and "G" scans. Still, there's enough
of the latter to make one unsure just what PGG1 is trying to be. [As
a related aside, Lee Noga has said Busty Babes Volume II will have
some shareware on it. Talk about a confused identity! I'm anxiously
waiting to see how that combination "looks and feels".] In sum, the
diversity of PGG1's contents makes it somewhat difficult to discuss
its scans in generalities, especially when relating to aspects other
than technical merits and production values. On these two planes,
PGG1 scores pretty high. The vast majority of the images are well
lit, framed, and composed. Not counting the corrupted files
previously mentioned, there appear to be few scanner-related goofs,
etc. that spoil otherwise acceptable images, as has happened with
other CDs.
Perhaps a better title for this CD, or one just as good as "PGG1",
would have been "Daughter of GIFFY Gold". (However, that name might
inspire as unfortunate an acronym as the original name, with just as
unfortunate a pronunciation.) There is a LARGE number of scans of
the "GIFFY Girls" on this CD scattered across various directories.
How many, if any, are repeated from GIFFY Gold I can't say.
Certainly some of the names and um, faces seem familiar. Now that's
either good news or bad news depending on one's viewpoint.
Personally, I found GIFFY Gold to be without much merit.
What's more disappointing for me, but harder to quantify, is that
like GIFFY Gold, most of the scans of the GIFFY Girls have an
amateurish quality about them. Call me "Picky" if you want, but
photographs whose backgrounds include electrical outlets and phone
cords, or are posed merely on a carpet in an otherwise seemingly
empty room, or up against a blank wall, or starkly in an empty
corner, etc. etc. etc. are NOT appealing. The whole scenario
screams: "Look, Ma! I can take nudie pictures, too!" The idea that
anyone would be brash enough to pawn such works off on CUSTOMERS
under a rubric of art or erotica is disappointing to say the least.
Comparing these images to what they're rather pathetically trying to
emulate is like comparing homebrew to a fine wine. Certainly, not
all of the GIFFY Girls' scans are of this ilk. Many of the alfresco
scans are quite good. Of course, if you prefer "amateurs" or
so-called "real people" in photos of generally "snapshot" quality,
this might well be a strong plus for you. For myself, I much prefer
the (happily numerous) scans like those included from David
Thompson/TFA.
Further general discussion of PGG1's imagery is difficult owing to
the diversity of the CD's contents. Accordingly, a few specific
notes about the images in some of the directories will wrap up this
review.
o The "animation" files in \ANIMATIO are new - that's the good news.
The bad news is that they don't compare well with what one has come
to expect. Frankly, I found them boring. That is to say, the ones I
could get to run I found boring. Almost all of the self-executing
EXE files either locked up my PC to the hard boot stage, or
summarily aborted with a divide overflow error at start up leaving
my display set in 40-column mode. I was glad this is a small
directory.
o The images in \ART are pretty good "G" scans, but again, one has
to wonder what they're doing on a self-proclaimed adult disk.
o The scans in the \BOND_ART and \DTP_ART, besides being almost
completely redundant with each other, were particularly poor, IMO.
Understand, these are line art drawings, not photographs. If
producers want to include scans of drawings on their adult CDs, they
should, IMO, stick with the likes of Vallejo.
o I could not comprehend the 40 scans in \FEET of (guess what)
peoples' feet, nor could I appreciate beyond some initial mild
amusement the 58 cartoon-like scans in \FURRY which were mostly of
foxes or cats standing erect, with human female busts attached.
o The scans in the \NEWSCHOO directory had me really wondering what
I was looking at until I decided that they were photos of a "new
school" of photography in progress, along with what could only have
been some of its students' lab or homework assignments. Undoubtedly,
it was PHOTO-101 class time.
o I DID NOT appreciate \OUTTAKES's scans. Why in the world would
anyone want to include their culls in their final product? Since
there are 63 scans here, that means about 9.8 Mb of wasted space. Of
course, one could also wryly say that it provides the producers with
an excuse to claim 9.8 Mb more of "product" in their advertising -
but then one would probably be labeled as "biased".
o The \PIERCING and \TATTOO directories provide a few rather bizarre
images for those so inclined, or the curious. Unfortunately, there
are too many dups or "near dups" between/among them. There's some
additional scans of this type in the \TFP (for Todd Friedmann
Photography) directory if one's interested.
Bottom line: If you're looking for a hodge-podge collection of GIFs
ranging from terrible through so-so and on up to terrific, across a
wide variety of subject matter, and you want to view these images
via Windows ('tho the use of an alternate viewer isn't precluded),
then this CD could fill your needs. Otherwise, pick something else.

Hi Dave. Would you mind defining "HUNDREDS" for me please? Is it
anywhere close to 6 hundred? I have a lot of customers who are not
looking to buy a disc with much less than 600 megs. Thanks.

Thanks for the explaination. I love copyright law. Can you just
imagine a court hearing on the subject of GIF's on BB. You'd need
a "take a number machine" at the front door of the court room, when the
discussion turned to poolstick handles and champagne bottles. I bet
the smoke alarm would go off and they would need to evacuate the building.
I wonder if Lee Noga has thought about a "Fire Sale".

Hi Paul,
Just checked out the total fantasy cd, got it from Mike Shannon at
Starvector. Good price, super service! Anyway, I personally really
like it, high quality scans, does have a lot of different pix on it
and an excellent variety if animations. Lots of directories...Even
the descriptions are different..Would rank it up there with BBabes.
Liked it better than Ecstasy Hot Pix or FAO. Not for the timid.

RN>Has anyone else had problems with their Mitsumi LU005 drive? I have two of

RN>read SOME of my shareware discs.
I am no expert and am still learning about CD-ROM technology and am
asking a question more than I am Offering a solution but could it be
the storage capacity of the disk is too large for the MITSUMI drive.
From what I have been reading in these messages, the MITSUMI only has
a capacity for reading disks up to 600 megs and some disk carry a
capacity of 650 megs. Could it be that when you reboot your system,
you can access the latter part of the disk because the first part of
disk has already been read and not in memory?
Like I said I am more interested in the answer myself because I am
in the market for a CD-ROM and I have some reservations on the MITSUMI.
I have always believed that you get what you pay for and the MITSUMI
seems to be awfully cheap compared to all the other CD-ROMS.

I have heard of such a disc, but don't remember the name offhand.
RBBS-in-a-Box sorta fits your description, but not REAL closely.
Shareware Online II (which I can sell you at $35) claims to have "many up-to-

Boris,
I got this unit with the computer I bought. Trying to get a

Can you get a technical manual for the 3401B? If so will be

What is your biggest fear, that you are concerned about satisfaction ? I can
guarentee these images have never been seen before, they have been scanned in
high quality, the front end interface is a no brainer, the packaging is nice--I
can't gurantee it will meet your personal preferences, but can any disc do this
? But let me say, I don't spend 25 grand, to publish 'Loser' disc's--
We are no longer a "XXX" publishing house by choice, not because we can't get
the materials--We are specializing in name brand collections beginning after BB
II hits the market--(i.e-Venus, Hawaaian Tropic Girls, American Dream Girls,
Platinum, LA Raiderettes).
This may upset some folks and please others--"XXX" discs are too risky to
publish with regulation going on--So, we raised our horizons and landed the
contracts for other avenues......
Hope this gives you some insight :)

to another camp who merely changed the interface and made some improvements
over the original-- So they say.....When the disc dried up on the market in the
earlier days, there was belief that they demand was still there for it--So, it
was bought, renamed, and repressed--At one time it lived in the 'Prime', but
falls short in todays standards as duly noted in the reviews. Hope this helps.

I think that's a great idea, Gary. Mike Shannon published a couple of
matirices showing dups across several shareware CDs - not everything you asked
for but still useful. I haven't seen one in a while, though. I'm not
interested in shareware much so I don't do reviews of them. (I recently even
dumped all the ones I had.)
You raise a valid point. Perhaps my reviews of adult CDs annoy more people on
this echo than those that find them useful/interesting. In the past I've
relied on the moderator to tell me if/when he thinks I'm doing something
wrong, should stop, or whatever. I don't really know what else to do.
Comments, Tim?

Subj: Review of EE2 (con'c) Refer: NONE
Read: [N/A] Private: No
With respect to EE2 and BB R.3, I was mainly talking just about the
interfaces. Checking the table of dups from the GIF name data base, EE2 showed
only 108 dups with BB R.3 which isn't too bad. Remember tho' that re-naming of
what Lee Noga has begun to refer to as "grass roots" GIFs, i.e. the ones that
have been out for a while, while perhaps not rampant, isn't uncommon either.
Therefore, you may well find a somewhat higher number of dups between these
two CDs than 108 if you did a file-by-file, visual comparison (which is damn
near impossible).
Hope this helps. Cheers!

If I understood Lee Noga correctly, you're referring to "So Much Stareware".
She said that STAREware was a recent knockoff of SMS that was being marketed
as "new". You are correct about the "hits" - my data base uncovered about a
98% hit ratio on names, but without considering who's duplicating whom.

OK, tell you what I'll try to do. I can (with some effort) OCR them back into
electronic form. After that, I'll see if the sysop of this BBS (Dan Guillory -
a sterling fellow) will put them in an area where they can be freq-ed by
other sysops. If that's not a viable route at least they'll be available on a
floppy for anyone that wants them that way. I'll keep the echo posted on my
progress - but this will take more than a day or two to pull off. Thanks for
the interest.

LN> "Ripoffs" in what way ? How can one vary a swimsuit disc--Im cur
Pardon my jumping in, but...
When a CD is advertised as "swimsuit", I know what to expect with
respect to subject matter - that's not an issue. What *IS* an issue
(with any CD) are production values: technical quality of the scans;
photographic quality of the images; front end; full 650 Mb; etc. etc.
etc. The two s/s CDs I looked at (VERY briefly - can't even recall
their titles) were jokes in these respects. FLD's past products haven't
had these kind of problems and I don't expect the future ones will
either.

BJ>> I'd surely like to read it.
Would love too, except you now know everything I do :)--You will notice the
trend changes and attitude changes towards the 'Grassroot' disc's--The top 10
players in US distribution, are exhausting their stocks and shying away from
the 'Obscenity' type disc's--Weekend trade shows are starting to ban these
types of disc's also, and international customs now have the awareness to
confiscate this type of media. If and when 'New' XXX enter the market, you can
believe its from the 'Wanna Be's' that live in the old era and have yet to
spend any money with a team of attorneys--To put out a "XXX" disc, a publisher
needs to have a min of $250,000 in a separate legal fund.
Having exposure in this industry, we have traveled around the country to meet
on this topic with those that 'GodFather' the adult video industry. We have
consulted the attorneys that specialize in the representation of the seculiar,
and it was an eye opener--There are a tremendous amount of people serving time
who operated much like we in the 'Grassroot' era--Now, publishers like myself
have to sweat out the statute of limitations, and hope we don't do time for
products we put out prior--With what I know now, our "XXX" days are over and we
have started a new company with a whole different attitude as well as product
line--We have chosen to work with Hollywood agents and deal in name brand
collections--beginning after the release of Busty Babes II and Texas Glamour--
(all licensed collections)
a) American Dream Girls, LA Raiderettes, Venus Models, Chippendales etc.
These are all collections that we have on a handshake, and are now at contract
signing for. Most any female collection found on calender, we will do a ROM
with--
This may please some, and disapoint others, but sometimes you have to set your
horizons a little higher :) We plan to be around a LOOOooong time.

Last count was over 300 megs of 2.x related software. We could fill the sucker
with lots of 1.x stuff - which would satisfy those users looking for a disk
with
not much less than 600 megs. Interesting trade off eh? <G> Bottom line is we
decided from a marketing standpoint, to only go after the latest 2.x-supported
software, being better than trying to pull a fast one on the user and claim the
disk had over 600 megs (with almost half being useless drivers, patches, etc.)
Lots of the software on the disk will run under 1.x - such as games, utils,
etc.
- but we held off on stuff SPECIFICALLY written for the 1.x release level.
Hope this helps - perhaps your users will agree between 300-400 megs of useable
software is better than a disk full of "junk." In the next few days I'll be
releasing a directory structure here in the echo for everyone to see what
categories the disk is broken into...

Mike, thanks for the info on Dr Games. I may order it but am a little
unsure about the 1993 games being on the disc. I ordered the Gameware
Collection from your company. I asked if it had alot of 93' games on
it. I was told it did so I ordered it and the Phoenix 3 too.
Well to my suprise, there is NOT ONE game with a file date of 1993
on the entire disc. I decided not to call your company and make it an
issue. The disc does have alot of games on it, but no 1993 files as I
was told then and now here in this echo. Don't get me wrong, your
sales person was very pleasant to talk to and your service also has
been good, just I still do not have the newer 1993 games to put on
my BBS. Thanks for your time.

Hi Mike, can you give me the name and phone number of the individual that
bidded $125? Since this is no longer your highest bidder, I'm more than
willing to sell my copy to him for the $125 price he offered. Thanks for
your help and if you wish to call me with the info, my number is
808-624-1293. If this deal does not go through, would you be willing to
trade some of the CDs you sell right now for this copy of BB?

BJ> OK, tell you what I'll try to do. I can (with some effort) OCR them back
BJ> into electronic form. After that, I'll see if the sysop of this BBS (Dan
BJ> Guillory - a sterling fellow) will put them in an area where they can be
BJ> freq-ed by other sysops. If that's not a viable route at least they'll be

BJ> echo posted on my progress - but this will take more than a day or two to
BJ> pull off. Thanks for the interest.
This would be great Bob, As I am in the final steps to purchasing a CD ROM

I have received a few responses from folks regarding as OS/2 specific
cd-rom. I have ordered two of them. Hobbes os/2 and another one
entitled ems's os/2 utility library. Now I have also received a message
on what would appear to be another good one to pick up from your
organization.
Having only 2.x files is a big plus. I have only one question for
you. Hopefully you are aware of what is on the other tw cd's. If I
purchase this one also, will I end up with a lot of dupes, or is it
worth investing in this one, since I've already ordered the other two.
All of them seem to be fairly recent, but I imagine there will be a lot
of "Different" files on all three. thank you.

A couple of questions,
1. Do you have an external one?
2. I have the old sound blaster, the plain one not the pro, will this
work with the cd rom drive?
3. could I play normal music cd's on this ?
4. I'm from canada, where are you located? Because I want to know the
canadien price for this.
Thanks for now.

When I went on patrol in Korea in the 50's, we had a saying about the
guy who lead the way. Don't get too far out front because you might
get shot in the ass. I can see how that would apply in todays
CD-ROM market. I appreciate your comments and love to hear what you
have to say about the industry. Thanks for your insight. I wonder if
you might sign on to the Law Echo. there are lots of attorneys and
law students who would love to get involved in a discussion about
freedom of expression. Who knows, you might come away with some new
ideas. In the meantime:

As usual, Lee, your post is most informative. There's still some unceratinty
on my part whether the problems stem primarily from the XXX nature of the ROM
or the copyright issue or both. You spoke of statute of limitations and that
sounds like "copyright" (tho' I thought they were good for 99 years - a
l-o-n-g statute of limitations (:> ), "licensed collections" (which also
sounds like "copyright"), but then go on to say your XXX days are over. One or
two more words of clarification would be appreciated. And since you've been
meeting with the video folks, what's their take on the XXX vid industry - same
problems??
As to historical knowledge, naahhh, I'll never know as much as you on this
point. I've only been following along for the last 2-3 years and I think ROMs
go back a lot further than that.

Boris, could you quote me a the lowest cost two drive scsi unit.
I guess I'd need an external; price and an internbal, I do have two bays
available.
I doubt much will be close to just buying two mitsumi, but scsi would be so
much more beneficial over time.
I am running a BBS now, and am using my manin system, but plan on moving it to
another. I have a sony 51ua or something like that on mine and its fine for my
needs. There's an idea. I cna move it and add a mitsumi to the BBS PC and get
me a nice internal scsi with a sound card with scsi on it. Thats what I want
qouted then.
My system is 1:106/2032, but it may not be on your list yet. My system number
is 713-353-7286, if you want to reply via netmail. If you'd give me a 90
warranty, I'd even consider a nice reconditioned unit!
So nobody has come up with a controller to handle dual mitsumis yet?

Well, yes and no. I don't have a 386/40 MB to trade and wouldn't pay
what that's worth for the CD anyway. I think all the "bidding wars" over
this thing are ridiculous. I offered Mike Shannon $50 for his copy, and
I was stretching that a bit just 'cuz he's a friend.

Macy I have a new (still in Shrinkwrap) CDROM titled DISC to the FUTURE
PART II (don't ask me about part I <g>). It states on the back Programmer's
reference CD-ROM for the Macintosh, PC & UNIX. Over 300 Megabytes of
source code & utilities for the professional and part time MAC, PC, and
UNIX programmer. ALL text and source code is fully indexed with TEXTWARE.
3D-Graphics, Ray Tracing, Quicktime, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PICT, Postscript.
APL, ASM, BASIC, C, C++, Forth, FORTRAN, Hypercard, LISP, MacAPP, PASCAL
Prolog, SMALLTALK, BTrees, Compliers, etc, etc, etc. I think you get the
picture.
I got it as part of a package. I'm not into programming so never even
looked at it. It's yours for $20 plus $2 postage. A money order will get
next day shipping and a check will get a week's wait before I ship.

It would seem to me that if the BBS only allowed one person to view the
contents of the CD at a time, copyright laws would not be broken. As in
a book or software, you can lend it to someone to use and as long as they
are the only ones using it at any given time, you are not violating anyone's
copyright. If the users capture the text while they are reading it on your
BBS, they would be the guilty party by having made a "copy".
The search program could be made to run online with "doorway" as long as it
doesn't do any graphics. Drop to DOS keys or any other undesirable functions
can be locked from use with Doorway.

Vince,
I ordered three cd's from your company 3 Weeks ago and still
haven't recieved them. A lady took my order and told me they would be
sent that day. I sent the money order the next day so I know your
company recieved that. I also have been trying to reach someone for some
answers by Fax and through this conference but have not yet had any
replies. All I would like is to have this problem handled in a
profressional manner. I don't like being told one thing than having to
wait a month or it looks longer to recieve my cd's. Now by the time I
recieve them they will be out dated. I was told that you had a good
company but now it will take some good service to make me believe that.
Thank You. I hope I hear from you soon.

For clarification, "I didn't say that" it was a part of a thread, after
I had asked a question about adult CD's, however, I am inclined to like
more hardcore type of disks, I can see T&A everyday on the beach, or go
to a topless club and see it, I don't need to buy a CD to see it. Since
I don't own the disk's in question, I can't say whther or not I liked or
disliked them, that was what the orginal person that replied to that

it has the manual and stuff and it's practically hand size. It looks like a

new! Model SF-4300. Make an offer.
I will trade it for:
CD-ROM drive at least 350ms, and photo CD compatible

256 grey scale scanner minimum
Will negotiate any offer.

Read: [N/A] Private: No
Oooops! I gonna get this right YET! For all those that are interested,
Southern Beauties does indeed have 1000 unique images on it, GIFs and
TIFs combined. The TIF images are, for all practical purposes, each a
repeat of some GIF image, whether the TIF image has the exact same name
or not.
I'm only able to do file comparisons based on either name, size, or
checksum. So my last post (Erratum), was based on a name comparison
between the TIFs and the GIFs. YOU SHOULD IGNORE THAT POST! When Dave
Van Gelder (one of SB's producers) first spoke, I mistakenly thought he
was claiming that the TIFs were different images from the GIFs. NOT SO.
The TIFs images were selected from the best of the GIFs (it shows) but
only after the GIFs names had been re-sorted to be sequential.
Accordingly, some of the GIF/TIF pairs will line up name-wise, some
won't. Bottom line: It don't make a hoot! For now at least, Southern
Beauties is the slickest, prettiest adult CD out there. Dave promises
that next one will be even better. I can't wait!!

I'm s-l-o-w-l-y getting my past reviews back into electronic form. So far,
I've completed Busty Babes V.1/R.3 and Pork-Ware II. These are available for
d/l or freq from this BBS (Hard Disc Cafe - HDC) as BUSTY_R3.ZIP and
PORK_2.ZIP respectively. Additionally, there's a file called DATABASE.ZIP that
is a .WK1 formatted spreadsheet. It is a cross-reference of the GIF name
"hits" for each of the CDs in my GIF name data base. The intersection of each
row/column tells the number of GIF names that the two respective CD share. For
example, Storm-3 and FAO-GOLD share 99 GIF names between them.
The scanning of the paper copies of my past reviews is taking longer than I
imagined. As I get them done, I'll upload them to HDC and post a message to
that effect in this echo. Dan Guillory (sysop of HDC) says he'll put them in
the Text/Magazine library. He's abusy guy, too, so if you look and don't see
them there, wait a few days and try again.
There's been far more interest in my reviews than I'd ever imagined. It's very
gratifying and I sincerely thank all of those who have supported my efforts.
Cheers!

Charlie,
It covers any region which has been mapped out by surveyors, which is
99.9% of the country I would guesstimate. No topographical data to
speak of, just stuff like major landmarks, cities, rivers, airports,
schools, etc, plus of course all the roads and highways.
I've used mine quite a bit, and it TRULY is one of the best CD applications
I have tried.
Hope that answers your questions. (Oh, BTW - Your CD order shipped out
on 9/23. Thanks again.)

IA>I hope I have already solved your problem.
Hi there! Thanks for the note. I sent the message off here before
calling Groupware and getting ahold of you on the phone. I greatly
appreciate your responsiveness and willingness to assist with the
problems I've been having. Guess I was just talking to the wrong
people before.
IA>However, there is another problem and it is not Mitsumi's fault...
IA>Some of the CDROMs had been recorded on JVC units and due to a technical
IA>difficulty with JVC unit (software & hardware), some of the disks don't
IA>meet to Orange Book specs, Mitsumi is a little bit more sensitive for the
IA>specs than some other units and it will reject this type of disk with
IA>CDR101 error.
Thanks for the explanation. Since the CDR101 is one error message I had
received, perhaps this was part of the problem...
IA>As you know I can only change your unit with a new one and your problems
IA>may still continue.
Well at least a new unit will have a chance at functioning properly,
in case the problem was something other than just "sensitivity" to
the JVC-made disks. I appreciate your swapping the unit for me to
try and get rid of any gremlins.
IA>After pinpointing JVC unit problem, I have got their disks re-mastered and
IA>now they have disks that can be read by Mitsumi and all others.
By any chance, do you know if either of the disks I've had problems
with were done on the JVC? They were "Ecstasy Hot Pics" and "Smutware".
If you haven't contacted the makers of those two disks, you might see
if they've used that unit...
Once again, thank you for assisting with my problems. I will look
forward to receiving the Mitsumi back. I went ahead and picked up a
Toshiba for my home system while this one was gone, but am thinking
about putting the Mitsumi in my husband's work system so he can do
some research on the national phone book CDs for potential customers
(were those JVC disks?).

Night Owl Shareware - Still the LEADER!
As most discriminating Shareware CD-ROM users and Sysops know, Night Owl
was among the very first to offer a quality disk at a fair price. More
than four years later, Night Owl is still the pre-eminent Shareware CD leader
in the WORLD. That is the opinion not only of N.O. customers, but of CD
reviewers in the industry. The following quotes are excerpted (with
permission) from a review of Night Owl v9 in the Sept./Oct. 1993 issue of
CD-ROM Reporter; an independent industry publication from Centos Company,
Los Alamintos, Ca.
"Night Owl 9 is a fully loaded CD-ROM. This is not an economy model
250 meg disk. This is a full size, two ton truck of over 600 megs"
"Night Owl 9 is also a new disk. All the files have 1993 archive dates.
None of the files... had a date significantly different from the
archive date"
"the games and entertainment category, alone, will make this CD-ROM
a must buy."
"includes a search engine that allows key word searches in either
the file names or in the description, making locating files that you
might have an interest in easier."
"covers a wide variety of interests."
"The number of useful and fun items included makes it an exceptional
value."
That is what the experts say about Night Owl. TCM Computing has had a
business relationship with Night Owl for 3 1/2 years; longer than anyone.
Version 9, Graphics v1, and the soon-to-be-released v10 were assembled at
TCM. We are the Official Night Owl Support BBS, and an authorized dealer
and distributor.
Next time you are in the market for a top quality Shareware CD, come to the
leader: Night Owl. And when you need a Night Owl product, come to TCM.

Ahhh, OK, I understand....its just that my concern is now that I am dealing
with Bev Hills agents on these calendar collections, we are limited to 1,000
scans, not because there is not more material, but we are experiencing a high
rejection rate--For example, when we look at a sheet of slides, they are like
frame advances, and much to similiar, maybe a hand gesture difference--So when
we start with 2,000 slides, we ended up with 1,000 for BB II--
We leave for BH Oct2-4 to pick up 3,000 Venus swimsuit slides from the model
search pageant for which there will be calendar and video merchandising as well
as our CD-ROM--Then we leave for Trumps Palace Nov 11, to be photographed with
Trumps American Dream girls--And yes, there was photography of me with Miss
Venus Interantional '94, and I may put that pix on the Venus disc :)
Didn't mean to yammer on, guess I was elluding to the fact, that with 1,000
slides, the disc is not no 650MB, those that deal in license collections are
not packing disc's with 650MB, this is why we through on what would have been
PowerPak '93 on the disc as well--After we weeded thru 650 MB of shareware and
removed those ZIPS that required author approval before going on CD, well it
left us just a little--When we removed all the GIFS, well that left us down to
a tad of 200MB, so why not put it on the BB 2 disc.
Righting this message in a hurry, and it probably makes no sense--Yes, we have
SHOWOFF, and the scanning is nice--:) We took it to the pros ! BB 2 should not
fall short of the mark for what it is *1000* original slides.
We did not do any in 24 true color, they are all 640 or 800X600--Too many video
cards out there are not equipped for true color and we ran out of time to dupe
the collection in true color--Oh well....

You understood correctly, Bob !! It's one and the same disc, the difference is
that it was brought in for a pitstop, and went back out on the race track :)
I feel horrible sometimes divulging the inside skinny, but hell, the world
washes my laundry public, so what the heck :) Matter of fact I usually am the
first to tell on myself too :)-- But I can assure you the 'Fly By Nighters'
will find competing against the big boys/girls a little tougher this fall--The
industry is changing direction away from 'XXX' disc, so they tell me, and
distribution is requiring product to have alot of polish, nice packaging, and
front end engines--We are in a shake-up amongst authors, and only the good will
survive, all of us our uncertain to how the mud will settle--Bottom line is,
the consumer will benefit, because we authors are cleaning our acts up fast and
furious--You will be seeing alot of "XXX" grassroot liquidations going on via
price point blowouts--"XXX" will still be around, but more so in underground
operations--Enough to make your head spin, sometimes.
Its going to cost me $50K just to lock into the calendar name collections, not
to mention the $25K cost per production run--But, you will also see our
products in mag ads too--Handling this 180 turn has been challenging, but we
want to be a player in the publisher world, and evidently, the big name
companies think enough of us to get the job done--So, I hope I can pull this
all off, otherwise Im dead :)

In principal there is nothing to retract, in counts, perhaps you owe an

Could have not said it better :)--There are still so many publishers that have
no idea what they are risking, have no awareness of what will soon come down
the pike, and are to focused on the $$$$---We may have been the most sued as
far as copyright infringment goes (well, I dunno, Nightowl has had their share
too), but I will not be the example for the obscenity trafficking, subject to
prosecution from 52 states. I would love to continue in the "XXX" arena, have a
great image bank to pull from (original slides), but even they don't dare
publish a disc of this nature--They would love somebody to do it for them, and
there are no takers (at least for those of us that know what is coming down the
road)--
So, with the new company started, and Blaine ceases to give me legal problems,
perhaps my _ss will heal :)--I wish them total success in their new company,
and hope 'Southern Beauties' sells a million copies--
Hopefully, this last lawsuit we are pumping money into, will be the last one.
Actually, having been sued has been the best thing that ever happpend to
us--Made us re-evaluate things, gave us a chance to save other sysops, and
forced me to expand the company so that more product could be pumped out
faster--So alot of good has come out of it.
As I hear anything, which I do weekly, I will go public with it--I am not
shamed to allow the public to peek into our world too :)

I have ordered several times from them and they provide good service. The
only problem I had with them was when I was told the the
Gameware Collection 1993 had 1993 dated games on it. To my suprise it
did not contain even one. I never called to complain so I am not sure
what they would of said. I decided to keep the disc as it did have alot
of games on it. Hope this helps. Randy

I have always been extremely satisfied with the excellent pricing and

definately has the best pricing and customer support that I have ever
found from a Mail Order company.
If I had to rate Starvector Software they would receive four stars.

I don't know if Mike is running a "decent place" or not but, I have

As I live the the metro New Orleans area, we don't have those kinds of
concerns down here. The only problem I have heard about is a fellow in
the state of Oklahoma who had XXX rated CD files available on his BBS.
I am sure there is more to the story that than so keep an eye on the mail
in this area and I am sure that someone will be kind enought to keep up
updated. How is it different than ordering or mailing XXX Video Tapes?
GI> Well Mike if you read this and there is no problem I will probably
GI> order a couple of CD's from you....
Well Mike won't steer you wrong.
Also there is another very good dealer out of Ohio who is every bit as
good and reasonable, Boris Osadciw. Keep him in mind too, as there is
uaually a bit of competetion between these two war horses. Either of
which I would recommend to anyone. Both of these fellows post weekly
CDRom listings, specials and other goodies. Both have an 800 order line
and take most major credit cards, IF YOU ARE of the proper age and can
prove same to their satisfaction. Good viewing.
p.s. there are also several other dealers who advertise in this echo and
appear to have excellent prices. I haven't conducted any business with
these folks as of yet but you may want to give them a look see. No
recommendation on any of these others but advising that they do exist.

Yes. I brought three disks, Asian Ladies, Mystique of The Orient and

At least a $1,000 dollars worth before the end of the year.

products, delivers on time and has the BEST prices around! :-)
You won't go wrong by ordering from Starvector. You need to watch out for
crooks in this industry (I shouldn't mention names like "GroupWare," but you
get my drift).

I understand and agree with your viewpoint, Dave. I have no desire to
collect 600 megs worth of useless files. You made the right decision.
So long as the buyer understands this up front, there is no problem.
I haven't sold many Monster Media 1993 discs because it only contains
about 420 megs of files dated from Jan through April 1993. It is a nice
collection, but the competition is too stiff to buy a partially full
CD-Rom of shareware. However, the market is not exactly flooded with
OS/2 discs, so you will probably be alright.
I would like some dealer info from you if possible. It sounds like you
are on the right track. Thanks.

Obviously, I am not Tim. However, please accept a few comments from the
peanut gallery.....
(1) ALL reviews are, IMHO, most welcome.
(2) It would be much appreciated if someone would grab the reins and
review the NON-XXX discs as well. Shareware and commercial releases
are abundant, but we have no data for comparison before purchase.
(3) Since Bob Hall does not allow discussion of adult material in
the CDROM echo, then this is the only place left - until someone
starts an "ADULT ENTERTAINMENT" echo. This would be MY choice.
(4) This echo really ought to be for the buying/selling of CD-ROMs,
as the echo name suggests, however it should also carry messages
pertinent to the selection of CD-ROMs for purchase.
(5) Regardless of the subject matter of the discs that you review, you
have set up a fine system. Separating the technical from the content
and posting the information in separate messages makes it very easy
to locate exactly the data I need to make an informed purchase or
a meaningful recommendation to a client.

MS> Shareware Online #2 now available

Thanks for including the "average file size" in your list. It helps
give us a better idea of what's on the disc.
MS> \MUSIC 184 33,523,012 182,190
Do you have the file list available for download? I'm curious to see
what has been included in this category. Midi? G/M? Sound Blaster?
From the average file size, I would assume that there are many ".VOC"
or ".WAV" files in this grouping. There is litigation pending that
strives to make it a violation of copyright to distribute the majority
of these files, which contain digital copies of copyrighted material
(either voice or musical excerpts from TV, records, or film).
MS> \TRUETYPE 277 15,218,836 54,942
Is the producer of this disc telling us that 277 new TrueType fonts
have been released this year? I have found that most "new" fonts are
conversions from 1988-89 ATM fonts. Again, a file requestable list
would help.
Unfortunately, the archive file dates on most shareware discs do not
accurately reflect the dates of the files within. I have not seen a
single shareware disc (including my three or four favorites - which
I highly recommend to all my clients) that have accurate dates.
MS> 600mb SHAREWARE CD ONLY $6 WITH ANY PURCHASE
Just curious - which disc is this?
