A4Extra 2
What is A4Extra?
Acorn's A4 computer is very powerful - it packs the power of an A5000
into a tiny box. However, it's not without drawbacks. There are lots of
small niggles, which can frustrate and annoy users. A4Extra provides a
comprehensive soloution to theses problems. It does the following:-
• Stops the hard disc from powering down when the mains
power is connected.
• Provides a percentage indication of the charge of the
internal battery.
• Provides a simple control of the Risc OS 3 screen blanker.
• Allows easy switching between the LCD screen and an
external monitor.
• Switches the ARM3 cache on and off easily.
• Provides a status window to show the current status of the
A4 at a glance.
• It warns you if the charge in the battery is very low.
