I noticed atari modems in the Sept. BYTE for $30.00 from Computer Mail
Order, and was kind of wondering about them: collecting dust in a box
somewhere is an Atari 600XL, and I'd really like to turn the sucker into
a home terminal of sorts. WILL THIS DO THE TRICK???? (I know what CMO will
tell me :-)
I don't have a disk drive, or anything else worthy of note. There is
nothing I need to kermit, all I want is dial up to check my mail. Perhaps
in the future I might get ambitious and build something that will give
me 80 columns so I can use EMACS, but that is on a way-way-way back burner.
If anyone can tell me all the dirt on the modem, I'd be most appreciative.
Let me know any way you feel fitting....
Thanx in advance,
