Hi to everyone here, from New England.
I am so happy to know that there is such enthusiasm for Atari. In the 80s, I began with an Atari 400, 800, 1200, finally a Mega over the course of my mis-spent youth. I used the Mega for midi sequencing with some synths, but abandoned the Atari and migrated to PC compatibles in the early 90s. I sold my Mega for pennies on the dollar, something I regret to this very day.
I've been annoyed and frustrated with PCs for software sequencing. This drove me back to Atari, only to learn that there are many enthusiasts out there, and many exciting upgrades.
Recently I have acquired a 1040stfm, a Falcon and some software.
I had a Gotek laying around for a screwed-up Roland sequencer and put flash floppy on it for the STFM, which runs through an upscaler. I have just become the proud owner of an Exxos power supply which I hope to throw into the Falcon as soon as I find the wiring instructions.
Peace,
PeckPeekPoke
