I am looking for a source of EPROM programmers for the atari ST. I am interested in dumping my own utilities on to EPROM so they can be plugged into the cartridge port of the ST. In the UK there is a company called DATEL Electronics which produces EPROM burners for the Commodore 64 and "Amiga" (whatever that is). Does anyone know of a company which produces EPROM burners for the ST at a decent price (ie below 150 pounds). Thanks for the info.

Anyone know of a good, inexpensive EPROM burner for the ST? I bought one for an (dare I say it here) IBM clone, was about $130, and it did very well for what I need. Unfortunately, the IBM emulators have no provision for plug in cards, sooo it looks like we have to buy a serial burner or something special for the ST. Now, serial EPROM burners generally come in at the price of a vanilla XT clone here in Toronto, so it would be possible to buy one of those and plug in the existing burner, but I get this terrible queasy feeling every time I start to use DOS. Hmmm, maybe I should adapt the one I use on my PET, the one that only burns 2516's and 2732's.... Any ideas, folks? Thanks. Peter
