ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I feel better now, sorry about the fouling of the brain waves! Is there anyone out there who knows of any ftp sites in the US or elsewhere where one can obtain atari demo's software, utilities, games e.t.c and the required logon procedures. I would be very happy to receive any feedback at all(hopefully not all negative!). Please leave a message or if you feel brave enough try mailing me directly. I have one of the 'newish' atari ST FM's not one of the new E's. By the way how good is the E?. I have heard rumours that it doesn't load all the st software e.g ikari,certain spreadsheets and is not entirely compatible with the old St's. It is also not very good with the Pc emulator Ditto. Has anyone out there got any expertise on the matter?? Having one of the newish ST's means that i have surface mounted chips and i am having difficulty upgrading to one meg without spending a lot of money as a special machine is required to change the chips. Does anyone know of any addresses of reliable, cheap (does it exist?) firms, in the UK if possible, that will do upgrades? Have any whizzes out there overcome such difficulties? Thanks alot for reading this message All replies gratefully received.
