I'm planning on buying a Mega 2 ST. I'll be using this in my business
and for personal use. Other than general business applications I what
to be able to do my own flyers and manuals for my business, and I plan
to use the HP DeskJet. But I have some questions.
1- Are they (mega 2's) around to be bought (I haven't tryed yet)
2- Are they only sold directly through dealer. (ie can I buy one mail order,
and if its possible does any one have any suggestions on a mail order
place.?)
3- How long before the new roms? Just curious, I really cannot wait.
4- I'm going to buy the Atari hard disc (the one that fits nicely under
the machine). Does anyone have any eperience with this? or warning
against it?
5- Does anyone have any experience (or recommendations for something better)
with these software packages?:
WordUp- looks good but haven't seen a review
Logistix- spreadsheet (I think that was the name) was reviewed in
STart recently
which paint program? Degas Elite or Spectrum or ?. the extra colors in
Spectrum are of no value to me (other than gee whiz) unless I
can get shades on my printer.
If wordUp isn't capable enough I'll buy Publishing Partner too.
I'm pretty familiar with its capabilties and I know
they're about to ship a new release.
I'm pretty set on Zoomracks, I hate traditional (dbase style) databases.
Bye
