TDP ACCOUNTANCY SERVICES LTD TRAUMA TRAYS LTD FEATUREPRO LTD EMPLOYMENT NETWORK LTD This "IV by two" worked perfectly, but it was a waste of resources; the Eagle SASI card was the rarest and hardest-to-find part in the computer, since only Eagle made them and not all Eagles had them to begin with. OLD SCHOOL CATERING (EDUCATION) LTD ICLAD ROOFING AND FACADES LTD The Eagle Computer User Group in San Jose, California, was the primary Eagle user group.

EPR TUNING LLP BIOS: CP/M consisted of three parts, two of which were machine independent and were copyrighted by Digital Research. UNITY DESIGN CORPORATION LTD The binder labeled "Users Guide" contained everything else. RILLIONGLOBAL LTD [10]) Concomitantly with the lawsuits, IBM slashed prices for its own products; discussing the perspectives of the smaller PC firms like Eagle, one Morgan Stanley analyst was quoted in the June 9, 1984 edition of the New York Times saying "Some of them are operating at 5 percent pretax margins, and there is just no room for more price cuts."[9]. If an Eagle booted from a File 10, File 40, or "File 20" (a File 10 or File 40 box with a 20-Mb hard disk inside), the drive-letter assignments of the hard-disk BIOS prevailed. KAMRAN & ZAIN HOLDINGS LTD STREAMLINE DISPATCH UK LTD RSJ CONTRACTS LTD MID-TECH AIRFLOW SERVICES LTD So then on its own, the AVL Eagle can drive a multi-image slideshow of up to 30 projectors. BRITANNIA SECURITY SHUTTERS LTD CSI2 LTD AIR LTD YOUD CONSULTING LTD TRENT RIVER CRUISES LTD The keys were black with white lettering. I.P.R. One, labeled "Accounting", was the Accounting Plus manual. ACMECH ENGINEERING LTD I-FACT LTD ISLAND CAFE LTD RISE WITH PURPOSE LTD DIRECT ROOF SYSTEMS LTD There was only one hard-disk format. OLIVE & UMBER LTD GO PANDA MOVES LTD IUDICIUM SOLUTIONS LTD EXCELLENCE MOTORS LTD Since the hard-disk BIOS only addressed four hard-disk partitions, an Eagle IV with a File 10 attached would address the two partitions of the File 10 as A and B, and the two in the Eagle as C and D. With a "File 20" attached, the external partitions would be A, B, and C, the 8 MB internal partition would be D, and the other internal partition couldn't be used at all. QUINIC EVENTS LTD WHITENOISE MEDIA LTD PREMIER MENTAL HEALTH PATIENT TRANSPORT LTD CECIL CITY CONSULTANTS LTD GLOBAL WHOLESALE LTD Eagle achieved this by using the same hard-disk subsystem (Xebec hard-disk controller card, Eagle SASI card, and hard disk) as in the CP/M models. SCION SUPPLY LTD. The back of this section held a fan right behind the drive enclosure, and a silver label behind the monitor with the company logo and address, the model number, serial number, voltage, frequency, and current. DONCASTER PARK SOCIAL SPORTS BAR LTD GBT CONTRACTORS LTD PEAKY VAPOURS LTD CHRISTAKIS LTD HUDSON MANOR LTD The third part, the BIOS, was the interface between the operating system and the hardware, and varied between the systems of different computer manufacturers, and sometimes between different models from the same company. Thus a 10 MB hard disk had an 8 MB partition and a 2 MB partition; a 20 MB hard disk had two 8 MB partitions and one 4 MB partition; and a 32 MB hard disk had four 8 MB partitions.
