    No, but I did talk to some of the young lads at work
    about the TT030 and the Atari Transputer Workstation! :-)

    Regards,

    Oh nice! Did they have either?

    I'm pretty sure most of them had never heard of either
    the Atari ST, TT or Transputers. It's sad but I meet a lot of people who think
    PCs and Macs are the only computers there have ever been.

    That kinda rates up there with people that think video gaming started with Nintendo, though I am finding that it is more and more cool to throw the "Atari" name in there from time to time.

    Now on the same token, I find it funny that people say video gaming started with Atari. Every so often I feel like getting a Fairchild Channel F just for bragging rights. :P

    Hello Greg,

    Do you have any use for a 40 Mbyte 3.5" low-profile SCSI
    hard disk or a 100 Mbyte (internal or external) SCSI zip drive? These might suit an STFM/STE with an ASCI->SCSI adaptor or perhaps a MegaSTE, if you're lucky enough to have one of those.

    Regards,
    - Andy Ball.
