Chris Bush asks about the Atari 400, and about sources of documentation and software... Probably the best way to find out about these sources would be to get a copy of ANTIC magazine (although that resource is rapidly fading away), or call (313) 973-8825 and ask the delightful voice that answers for a free copy of the Atari Interface Magazine.. Both of these publications carry advertisements from companies which sell 8-bit products still... they'd be a good place to start. BobR

Could you tell us a little more about this? I have never heard of it.

That didn't stop me from replacing mine with a Stackpole keyboard, though. The Atari 8-bit computers were the forerunner of the Amiga. Not a bad heritage, when you stop to think about it. --- END MESSAGE ---
