hey guys. i thought the world was a great place friday when i finally!!!
received pc ditto II. well, i finally got around to installing it today, and
hey, what do you know, it don't work worth a damn. my major concerns are:

the installation manual refers to a user's manual, which was not in the
box, and there is no user manual info in the installation manual. sheesh.

the installation manual refers to a program called PCD2DIAG.PRG which is
supposed to be on the master disk, but again, no such luck. just the 
same sort of files from pc ditto I (ie: pcdmenu (which hasn't even been
updated since pcdI, or at least it looks that way). this is disturbing since
i wouldn't mind knowing what is wrong with the installation (i am assuming
that it is the pal problem since it gets as far as reading the ibm boot
sector, and then it dies)

other observations:

my god, what a big bloody board they're using!!!!! it might as well be a
complete ibm for its size! i originally heard that it was supposed to be
the size of the clip to the 68000. of course the manual doesn't say how or
where it's supposed to mount inside the ST since i can't seem to find
a natural place for this monstrosity.

the cables are skewed and twisted over one another. sheesh. double sheesh.

well, until i get them updated pals, i guess the old st will have to be in
this opened, dishevelled state. unfortunately for avante garde, the whole
deal looks quite unprofessional, and the problems with leaving out entire
manuals/programs mentionned in the installation guide leaves a lot to be
desired!

just a few disgruntled thoughts ...
