  If you want to know if an off-the-shelf Atari ST can run Macintosh software,
then the answer is no.  But, there are these wonderful devices that you can
purchase along with your ST that give you the ability to run most, if not all,
existing Mac software.  I cannot quote any prices, but I am quite sure that 
the system would end up costing much less than the overpriced Mac, and you 
will have the ability to run software for both systems.
