Sorry for using the net as a mailing sys. But as we say here mail is sCWRUed up :-) I want to thank all the netters for the help on null modems and stuff to get atari to pc ... especially Chris Chiesa. Now to see if it works... I'll keep you guys posted. Chris: Thanks for your persistance. I now have such a job on campus and I have a great time at it. Ps. I may be in Rochester this summer if things materialize (knock on wood). Gil Yehuda BTW: I got an interesting question, maybe it will stimulate a discussion: Does the name ATARI have any relationship to atari in go -- the chinese board game. In go if your stone is surrounded by three sides then it only has one freedom to extend into. If it doesn't grow forward then it can be captured. Hmmmm. -- Y.
