Sirius
Software
Announces
Addition
To
Their
Product
Line
The
Joyport
for
the
Apple
Com
puter
provides
expansion
of
the
game
paddle
port
to
allow
the
use
of
four
paddles
(with
all
buttons
functional)
or
to
allow
the
use
of
one
or
two
Atari™
type
joysticks.
Atari
type
joysticks
are
fast,
simple
and
typically
retail
for
less
than
$10.00
each.
Some
of
the
features
of
the
Joyport
are:
Two
connectors
to
accept
Atari
type
joysticks.
All
four
axis
and
the
fire
buttons
are
fully
functional.
Since
the
analog
inputs
are
not
used
with
the
Atari
type
joystick
the
response
is
very
fast.
No
delays
between
reads
is
needed.
The
Atari
joystick
can
be
readjust
as
fast
as
the
keyboard.
Two
16
pin
sockets
to
accept
standard
Apple
style
paddles,
joysticks
or
other
devices
designed
to
operate
from
the
Apple's
game
paddle
port.
A
switch
to
change
from
Atari
to
Apple
controls.
Both
may
remain
plugged
in.
No
need
to
unplug one
control
to
use
the
other.
A
.switch
to select
either
of
the
two
Joyport
game
paddle
sockets
to
be
read
as
paddles
0
and
1
or
even
to
allow
your
soft
ware
to
select
which
set
of
paddles
will
be read
as
paddles
0
and
1.
Total
compatibility
with
existing
software
and
hardware.
Even
the use
of
the
Shift
Key
to
TTL
input
#3
modification
that
many
people
use
is
compatible.
No
modification
to
the
Apple
is
necessary
and
the
Joyport
does
not
take
up
any
peripheral
slots.
The
Joyport
sets
next
to
the
Apple
with
all
sockets
and
switches
easily
accessible.
The
Atari
type
sockets
are
mounted
on
the
front
of
the
device
and
the
Apple
type
sockets
are
inside
the
box.
A
convenient
snap
on
cover
provides
a
strain
relief
for
the
Apple
type
sockets
and
still
allows
changing
them
without
getting
inside
the
Apple.
A
wide
variety
of
software
is
being
developed
to
take
advantage
of
the
added
features
of
the
Joy
port.
This
includes
most
products
that
Sirius
Software
will
be
pub
lishing
as
well
as
software
from
other
vendors.
New
products
available
from
Sirius
Software
that
will
be
compatible
include
Foosball
a
four
player
action
game
that
is
included
FREE
with
each Joyport
purchased
prior
to
Christmas,
1981.
Cops
and
Rob
bers,
PGE
The
Pascal
Graphics
Editor,
and
Outpost
are
compat
ible
with
the
Joyport.
Existing
software
may
be
easily
modified.
The
small
(20
to
100
bytes)
driver
is
relocatable.
The
presence
or
absence
of
the
Joyport
can
be
determined
by
your
software
and
automatically
enabled.
The
software
can
also
allow
simultaneous
use
of
the
keyboard
and
either
the
game
paddles
or
the
Atari
type
joysticks.
The
custom
PC
board
is
machine
wave-soldered,
hand
inspected
and
bench
tested.
Fully
documented
with
source
code
listings
of
sample
driver
routines.

Dial/Data
Gives
Micro
Users
Access
To
Financial
Markets
A
new
software
program
that
will
give
microcomputer
users
imme
diate
access
to
financial
markets
has
been
developed
by
Remote
Computing
Corporation
(RCC).
The
program
is
called
"Dial/Data"
since
users
can
dial
RCC's
network
over
normal
telephone
lines,
log
on
and
automatically
retrieve
data
on
commodities,
securities
and
options.
According
to
Alan
J.
Schnel-
war,
Vice
President
of
Eastern
Support
and
Development
at
RCC,
Dial/Data
will
add
a
new
dimension
to
the
microcomputer.
"We've
developed
a
complete,
easy-to-use
data
service
that
will
allow
users
to
sit
in
their
homes
and
offices
and
have
all
the
daily
and
historical
price
information
necessary
to
track
any
investment.
Schnelwar
explained
that
micro
users
will
receive
the
same
data
used
in
the
Merlin
service
by
investment
professionals.
Dial/Data
features
the
largest
collection
of
time-shared
data
on
commodity
futures,
including
open,
high,
low,
close,
volume
and
open
interest
for
all
com
modities
on
all
major
exchanges.
The
program
will
also
supply
all
New
York
and
American
Stock
Exchange
closing
prices
including
open,
high,
low,
close,
volume
and
uptick
volume,
and
all
cur
rently
traded
option
prices
in
cluding
high,
low,
close,
volume,
open
interest
and
the
closing
price
of
the
underlying
stock.
"For
Apple
II
users,
RCC
provides
programs
to
dial
our
Burroughs
B-7700
main
frame
and
automatically
retrieve
prices
and
to
create
and
maintain
data
files
on
diskette.
"In
addition,"
she
said,
"The
Apple
II
data
files
are
compatible
with
statistical
software
packages
available
from
other
sources
such
as
Compu-trac
and
Orion."
An
important
feature
of
Dial/
Data
is its
ability
to
handle
dynamic
symbol
changing.
New
Product
releases
are
selected
from
submissions
for
reasons
of
timeliness,
available
space,
and
general
interest
to
our
readers.
We
regret
that
we
are
unable
to

all

Readers
should
be
aware
that
we
