Well, after wanting one since 1985, I finally got an ST.  1040STfm mono.
Gosh.

I also got LaserC with it with their fun resource creation program.
Has anybody else but me noticed that this program has no documentation to
speak of?  Has anybody else spent 7 hours after 2am just trying to get
a GEM application to run without throwing little bombs all over the place?

The manual that comes with the ST--a little sparse, no?  Good grief, the 
book isn't a hundred pages long, doesn't even give a list of error messages,
(i don't think) or what the number of little bombs means.  What do the
number of bombs mean?

Why does Atari want me to by a manual for a language they bundle with the
machine?

Why is scrolling in ST WordWriter so much slower than the scrolling in the
LaserC program editor?

All these questions and more have come to plague me in the last 24 hours.
Sorry to waste bandwidth, but I'm excited and confused all at the same time.
Bah.
