� 1 how can I gets access to USENET where I believe there is a copy
� of AmigaDos 1.4.
Well the simple answer is, you don't. Unless you have a UNIX machine
connected to internet. (I don't think you'll find a copy of 1.4
there anyway, there are only a few alpha/beta (?? <CB> ??) copies in
the hands of REGISTERED DEVELOPERS, which I assume you're not [if
you were you would know how to get a copy presumably])
� 2 What are the comp.(binaries/sources/SYS).amiga all about and how
� do I get access to them. (This is my third day with DEC and I
� know nothing).
� 3 How do I get access to the Usenet (Tech) newsgroup.
�
Check out the notesfile 4470::news-backbone which will give you
details of how to get and install vnews which gives you access to
all the usenet news groups.
News groups are a similar idea to notes, only distributed over the
whole Usenet
comp.sys.amiga is a news group for general Amiga discussions.
comp.binaries.amiga is used only for distribution of Amiga binaries.
comp.sources.amiga is used to distribute the sources for the above
binaries.
comp.sys.amiga.tech is similar to comp.sys.amiga but for more technical
discussions.
� 4 And can anyone tellme where SANS::TRS80_COLOR_COMPUTER has gone.
�
I can't, but check out the file easynotes.lis, there should be
a copy on a node near you (usually in notes$library:) and search
for trs or coco or something like that.

| Well, as Alan already pointed out, KS/WB 1.4 is only available for
registered (and at this point I believe also only for commercial ones)
developers. If this prerequisite should be true, your local developer
support organisation (I know, they suck, especially in Australia)
or CATS at West Chester can you supply with it.
And no, 1.4 is and will never be available via UseNET. I doubt that
the whole shebang can be had from the restricted BIX developers
section, too.
The UseNet Amiga conferences are also available as "transcript"
in the form of notes conferences at FRAIS2::.
