Hello everyone! Nice to meet you!
I am fairly new to the Atari ST scene. I have had a 520STFM that I got in early 2000s from eBay when I was in middle school. I first did a RAM upgrade using a module from one of my 486 machines. That was my first really big, involved mod. My STFM has a very unusual revision so none of the guides have ever been 1:1 on this thing lol
I recently bought a bunch of Exxos products to clean it up (4mb upgrade, shifter board, PSU, video caps, main power caps). I forgot to get the resistors for the BUS and DMA mandatory fixes in that order, oops! Waiting for those to deliver still. At least I beat those ridiculous tariffs...
I have been a long time game collector and modder. I have many 8 and 16 bit systems. Feel free to nerd out any time, DMs open!
Look forward to getting more active in the community, and eventually want to dip my toes into homebrew, indy games. Happy to meet everyone!
