Hi, My name is Roy and I have recenlty re-started my interest in the Atari computer arena. Back in the '80s I had an Atari 800XL and was a member of the Johannesburg Atari Computer Enthusiasts (JACE) for a few years and produced a newsletter for members for a couple of years. My main interests are really in the hardware and utilities rather than gaming. Like many others I decided to move into those IBM machines that were taking over and left the Atari behind. Having been retired for a few years I decided to start looking at Atari's again and decided that the ST range and particularly the STE versions as these seem to have the most going for them within a reasonable price range. I currently have a ST540 FM with 1mb but still running TOS 1.2 and two STE's both with 4mb ram and am busy upgrading the PSU's and TOS versions as well as some of the recommended fixes. Looking forward to staying in contact going forward.
