can i get you to forward the following note to the 16-bit digest? I get
mailer errors from COMSAT@MC when I try to send it. I've just sent you a
note asking to join the 16bit, so I'm worried there may be problems. Any
comments? Thanks for your help.

Subject: ST questions
To: info-atari16@su-score
I spent this weekend with my brother-in-law who has a 520ST, and we came up
with some questions I hope someone can answer:
1) Are TOS-in-ROM chips available to users?
2) Does protected software cause problems with the disk drives? He has a
DSDD drive (314??) that has serious problems copying FINAL WORD (the manual
says to make backup copies). Occasionally he has to try two or three times
to copy a disk that is *not* protected (eg backing up ZORK I).
3) Are there any instruction manuals for NEOCHROME available? We got a free
copy from the local (Jax, FL) Games 'n Gadgets (I think it's v0.5), but
no instructions.
4) Is there a Jax FL user group for 520ST's?
5) Is there a compilation of public-domain or free software for the 520ST?
Thanks for any information. Please mail directly to moore@ncsc, as I'm not
on this list (yet!)
