[net.micro.atari] Looking for 80 Column Board

gjw@floyd.UUCP (04/18/84)

I am interested in buying an 80 column card for my 800. The only two 
I know of are the ones from BIT 3 SYSTEMS and Austin Franklin. I would
appreciate comments concerning reliability and compatibility with
existing software packages. I am mainly interested in word processing
and a terminal emulator. Also does anyone know of build your own
bare board 80 column card? The cheapest I've seen the Bit 3 Systems
board is $219, a bit steep. Thanks in advance.
