[comp.sys.atari.st] Monochrome Atari 1040ST

KSN@PSUVMB.BITNET (Peter A. Krupa) (09/22/87)

I am looking for some advice.  I've pretty much decided to buy a 1040ST
(the chips a little dated, sure, but I can't shell out $3000 for an
IBM PS/2 Model 50, or I would), but I don't know if getting the monochrome
system is the best idea.
     
The graphics resolution of monochrome system is just what I need, but I'm
worried about software availability.  Can anyone tell me if the following
types of software are available in monochrome format:
     
USCD Pascal (with a graphics procedures?)
C (ANSI standard)
a MIDI music editor
     
     
Thanks for you suggestions.

Dr. T's MIDI stuff works w/ mono.  Also the Steinberg sequencer, maybe others.
