1. I just received REVOLVER and it's better than I hoped for. The AUTO BOOT
   manager alone makes the acquisition worthwhile,  never mind the ability to
   partition my Mega's memory and run more than one appl at a time. BUT (there
   is always a but) I cannot disable REVOLVER's loader on boot up by holding
   down the LEFT SHFT-ALT combo like the manual says. Has this feature been
   disabled? (HISOFT BASIC's info program says I have ROM version 1.2)

2. Alan Pratt says that 19.2K is the pits on the ST. Nonsense, I use 19.2K
   every day to talk to a CYBER 830 or 990 or the VAX 850 at work. I connect
   via a Northern Telecom SL/1 digital modem using UNITERM. Alan has either
   the wrong modem or the wrong telecom package. I haven't had a KERMIT
   packet rejected yet!

3. Since Atari folks read and respond to various items on the net, why
   haven't I heard anyone from Atari respond to my idea about awards for
   best PD and commercial software to reward ST code developers? Is Atari
   selectively deaf?
