	I have just received my December issue of the 'Computer
Shopper' and have found some interesting ads in the classified section.
I quote from page 378.
     
            ----------------------------------------------

            "Atari 520ST/1040ST Development kit.  Includes 
            "C" compiler, assembler, linker, editor, util-
            ities, and ICON/RCS programs.  $49.95  Patrick
            Eberhart, PO Box 280151, Tampa, FL 33682."

            -----------------------------------------------

	    "Atari ST 20MEG hard disk, from Atari, perfect
	    condition ($585).  Developers software and docu-
	    mentation ($85).  520 color ST ($550) with 
	    cabinet.
                             NODE COMPUTER 
			        SYSTEMS

	    916-265-4668, 408 Broad Street, Nevada City,
	    CA 95959"
         
            ----------------------------------------------

	I think that these ads raise some valid questions.  
        
        1) Is Atari selling consumer versions of the development kit?

        2)  Are these people selling pirated versions of the development kit?
 
        3)  Is this a stripped down version of the $300 dev. kit?

        4)  What is the real story here?  Any comments?
