 Using a soundcard with Power Menu 2.0
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 If  you're  having problems with Power Menu one of the very first things to
 check  is  the  configuration settings of your sound card.  Our menu system
 uses  the default soundcard setting (I/O address 220 or 240 and IRQ 7).  If
 you've changed your card default configuration and you experience  problems
 you  can either change soundcard settings (explained in your manual) or use
 one  of  the  command-line  options  to  disable  sound.

 Many  of the newer advanced soundcards can be set to other than default and
 still work by using their built-in MIDI capability.


 How to setup a BBS or online CD-ROM door quick and easy!
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 Simply  change  directories  to \ROMDOOR on the So Much Shareware /3 CD-ROM
 and type:
            CD \ROMDOOR
            INSTALL

 In a few minutes you can have SpitFire BBS or one of the  CD-ROM  doors  up
 and  running  -  ready  for your callers to access and download files from.
 We've tried to do most of the work for you!  You still might have  to  make
 some  minor  adjustments  such  as setting your modem configuration but not
 much more.  Spitfire BBS comes with 163  pages  of  documentation  and  you
 should print it to get the most benefit from the software.


 SpitFire BBS
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 SpitFire  BBS's  popularity continues to grow by leaps and bounds.  When it
 comes to features, flexibility and ease of use I doubt  there  is  any  BBS
 software  that  can  match it. You will notice enhanced features, excellent
 support, an established user base, many third-party utilities and  best  of
 all   an   extremely   low  registration  fee  for  quality  BBS  software.
 Byte-for-byte SpitFire BBS packs more power  than  Bulletin  Board  Systems
 costing  $100's  of dollars more.  To make it easy for you to test Spitfire
 we've included a shareware version on this CD for you to try.


 SF-ROM and EZ-ROM CD-ROM door programs
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 CD-ROM discs and drives have become a standard feature  on  Bulletin  Board
 Systems.   There  have  been quite a few online doors created to handle the
 chore of running them but none match the value of SF-ROM  and  EZ-ROM  from
 author  Mike  Robinson.   SF-ROM  door works with SpitFire BBS, EZ-ROM door
 will work with any other BBS software.  Speed is  especially  important  to
 sysops  and these programs can fly!  They provide so many features it would
 be impossible to list them all here.  Just to list a  few;  browsing,  text
 search  and  download  capabilities,  Multiple  disk  support for up to 100
 discs,  Up  to  1000 separate file areas per  disc,  MegaSearch feature can
 search ALL disks for matching text, Batch downloads and file tagging of  up
 to  20  files,  Local  browse and copy to hard drive, multinode and network
 operation - the list is endless!  As with SpitFire BBS both these doors are
 shareware and should be registered if you use them.


 CDTA -- CD-ROM Timing Analyzer
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 This CD-ROM timing analysis program measures the data  throughput  on  your
 CD-ROM  drive  and  controller  and  also  guesstimates  the amount of time
 required for the drive "head" to move from one  place  to  another  on  the
 disc,  i.e.,  the  access  time.   CDTA  is freeware but donations would be
 appreciated by the author and can be sent to:

 New Features In Power Menu
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 If you own our other discs  So Much Shareware  or  So Much Shareware /2 the
 menu system will work with those as well.  Place either disc in your CD-ROM
 drive and hit the  F4  key or click on  "Change Disc"  under the DISCS menu
 option.   Power menu system also includes a text search feature that wasn't
 in previous versions.


 What Did You get?
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 If your a home user then our  shareware  discs  are  an  exceptional  value
 filled  with  programs  to  fit  most  any  need.   Arcade games, graphics,
 business,  fonts,  budgeting,  Adlib/SoundBlaster and MIDI, communications,
 windows apps, windows NT, OS/2, clipart, hobby, utilities,  communications,
 drawing  programs,  networking  software  -  You name it!  Why buy software
 first only to find it isn't what  you  thought?   With  shareware  you  are
 obligated to pay the program author his/her requested registration fee, but
 only  if  you use the program  beyond a reasonable trial period.  With over
 5500  programs  on  this  disc I'm sure you will find something useful.

 If your a sysop, you'll find our CD-ROM discs easy for most  BBS  software.
 We  use logical directory names and every directory contains a file listing
 that follows the standard format  (name, size, date, description)  and also
 a file listing that contains just the filename and description.


 So Much Shareware /3 File Statistics:
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 Because we date all compressed files to the highest internal file date you
 can be sure what you see is what you get!

      files dated before 1992 ....  159 =  2%
      files dated 1992 ........... 2993 = 54%
      files dated 1993 ........... 2441 = 44%

      Total Files = 5593 / 661 Megabytes

      Duplication between So Much Shareware /2 and this disc = 15%

 Duplication consists  of the best  music, games and graphics  programs that
 haven't been updated by the authors since SMS/2 was published.


 PCBoard setup
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 File  description lists in PcBoard format are located in directory /PCBDIRS
 using filenames corresponding to the directory such as DIR1 for  file  area
 #1 etc.  The file DIRS is the listing of file areas.  The DIRS list doesn't
 contain an area for SpitFire BBS utilities since other BBS sysops might not
 want to use it.


 Other BBS Setup
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 Each  file directory contains 3 BBS description lists.  SFFILES.BBS is used
 by SpitFire BBS software and uses a  comma  in  the  file  size.   If  your
 software  uses  a  description  list  in standard format (name, size, date,
 desc) without a comma in the file size you  would  use  FILES.BBS  in  each
 directory.  If your software uses a description format of just the name and
 description you would use FILES.LST located in each directory.


 Haven't I seen this disc someplace before?
 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
 We've  noticed quite a few So Much ... look-alikes in the marketplace since
 our very first disc in 1991.   Some  publishers  have  copied  our  artwork
 style, split our disc up to make many smaller specialty discs,  copied  our
 file  descriptions word-for-word or even copied our look and feel "So Much"
 I can barely tell the difference.  Don't confuse our discs with others.
