Another ST dabbler!

Post by BigSteve »

Hello fellow ST fans..

I'm Steve - in Australia - although originally from UK where I spent many long hours dabbling with an Atari 520STFM in the late eighties.

My original Atari got the blitter, a 4MB Xtra-Ram board and a mono monitor and ran either Devpac or Dungeon Master...

I recently felt compelled to buy a broken SH205, another mono monitor and another 520STFM. It looks like this lot also came from the UK and I plan to trick out the new setup with a slew of bits from the store. HD floppy, 16Mhz, TOS 1.04/2.06, CosmosEx v2.0, recap everything relevant.

Oh - and blue LEDs!

Pleased to meet you all.
