Event: PASUG Mtg: Thurs, Apr 22nd

From: "Larry Lavins"
.. PHILADELPHIA ALTERNATE SYSTEMS USER GROUP
.. http://www.phillyos2.org
The Philadelphia Alternate Systems User Group (PASUG) invites all
interested computer users to attend the April meeting. .
THURSDAY, APRIL 22nd, 2004 7:00-10:00PM
.. Bryn Mawr Community Center, 9 S. Bryn Mawr Ave, Bryn Mawr,PA
.. *** APRIL 22nd MEETING AGENDA ***
.. -- INTEL P4 vs AMD ATHLON XP/MP SHOOTOUT --
>>> SPECIAL TREAT: FRESH HOT PIZZA! <<<
The April meeting promises to be a memorable experience. Everyone is
invited to come witness a 21st century hi-tech update of the famous
"Shootout at the OK Corral:" Doug Leach's Intel P4 system vs Vadim
Kavalerov's AMD Athlon XP/MP system.
Among the newest generation of processors from both AMD and Intel, both
have chosen to implement significantly different architechtures in their
processor designs. In particular, Intel's P4 is optimized to improve
performance with streaming multimedia applications, provided the code is
optimized to take advantage of these new designs. The AMD Athlon XP/MP
offers Intel MMX and SSE compatibility as well as 3DNow! multimedia
extensions. But AMD seems to have taken a more traditional architectural
approach which is less reliant on the latest optimizing compilers. In OS/2
systems, many of which use older legacy software, one might wonder how the
performance of the two will compare.
This month's meeting will feature a competitive demo, by Doug Leach and
Vadim Kavalerov, of 2 comparable systems running OS/2, one with an Intel
P4, and the other with an Athlon MP running identical pro-
grams to encode audio files to MP3 using CD2PM3 as the front-end to the
stripper and encoders. Several different encoders will be used including
the most recent version of LAME, compiled with the latest GCC compiler and
which provides an executable optimized for Athlon systems. We'll compare
encoding speeds of several music tracks with several versions of LAME, and
Bladeenc for OS/2.
Doug will also review the different programs required to strip and encode
music files to MP3 under OS/2 using CD2MP3. If time permits, we will also
listen to some of the MP3's produced with PM123 to see how the quality of
the different encoders compares.
Other agenda items include announcements, news & new software releases,
Q&A session, and 50/50 raffle. You will also enjoy fresh hot pizza,
delivered to our meeting at the break period.

Event: SCOUG meeting April 17

10 Apr 2004 07:37:00 -0500
From: "Gary Wong"
The next meeting of the Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG) will
be next Saturday, April 17, at 09:30 AM PDT, in room 326 of the Eastside
Christian School at the Grace Ministries Complex, 1645 W. Valencia Dr. in
Fullerton.
Odin on Steroids?
InnoTek Runtime for those special Win Apps - by Mark Abramowitz
The Odin project has matured to the point where many Win32 applications
can run under Odin, with nary a copy of Windows in sight. But the
developers of Odin have taken it to new heights commercially, developing
specialized Odin wrappers for flawlessly running individual applications
that sometimes even run better than the application on its' native
platform. And now recently, they've developed the ultimate Windows
killer, the "InnoTek Runtime" which incorporates these wrappers into one
runtime.
To prove that just about any dumb user (which in no way is meant to imply
that SCOUG members - or presenters - are dumb) can work magic with the
InnoTek Runtime, our own Mark Abramowitz will show us how to run not only
apps that the runtime was developed for, but a plethora of Win32 apps.
He'll be dragging and dropping, clicking, and/or using the command line.
Mark will also show us what still needs work, and what could be improved
for the end-user.
SCOUG Server Management & Maintenance
Report on A Work In Progress - by Peter Skye
Peter has taken on - at least temporarily - the job of being the Webmaster
for SCOUG. He's learning about a lot of things that make it all run
smoothly. Specifically, he'll be covering (to some lessor or greater
degree):
CONFIG.SYS (including TZ=)
TCPEXIT.CMD
STARTUP.CMD
DAYTIME.EXE
OS2ntpd
Cron
Logging
dSync
WGet
Mirrors and RFC's
Other .CMD files, etc.
Programming SIG
The Programming SIG is searching for new mail server software for SCOUG.
Bob Blair will discuss the results of that investigation. Lynn Maxson
will give a theoretical spin to it and other SCOUG mail and Internet
server issues.
Help Desk chats are on Wednesday evenings at 7 PM PDT. If you've got a
problem with hardware or software, join the chat and ask for help. Info
is at http://www.scoug.com/chat/index.html.
OS/2 Live Help Desk, May 2nd, 2004, 2 PM PDT, Chapman University in
Orange:
At the live OS/2 Help Desk, volunteers will give you hands-on assistance
solving your hardware and software problems. It is usually held the first
Sunday of the month in cooperation with the OS/2 SIG of the North Orange
County Computer Club.
Come to Hashinger Hall Science Building, room 203. It's on the second
floor, and there's an elevator to bring up your equipment. Bring your
system and all related hardware and software, along with a detailed
explanation of your problem.
Directions to SCOUG meetings and events:
Go to http://www.scoug.com/directions.html. There you will find driving
directions to Grace Ministries/Eastside Christian School, plus a link to
Yahoo Maps. Also you will find links to maps/directions for Chapman
