[comp.sys.atari.st] Good News for we Atari ST owners

akw@osupyr.UUCP (Andrew Weaver) (05/30/87)

Net.folks:

	Just came back from the local Atari dealership.  (What else do I do
on a Friday night...must be a boring computer geek, I guess. :-)

	The good news is that the manager told me that Ready-Set-Go, the
desktop publishing package quite popular on the Macintosh, is going to be
released for the ST this summer.  I don't know if this has been posted here
before (I haven't seen it before, and I haven't missed news since Christmas!)

	Also, in the new STart magazine WordPerfect Corporation has a full
page advertisment pumping the up and coming version of Word Perfect for the
ST.

	Ahhhh....about time we heard some news about big software vendors
supporting the ST (not to take away from Soft Logik, PCA, the late BI and
other small software makers that has made the ST the excellent machine that
it is...no religous wars here guys.  Not many college sophomores can afford
68000 power like is available in the ST.)

	He was selling the 520STFMs as well, at $399 without monitor.

	Good to see all of this.  Have a good summer, finals are coming up
for we poor folks here at OSU.  But I get the privlege of working on campus
this summer.
