In response to a couple of articles about the PS3000 combo, can
someone from Atari Corp. enlighten us about this product.

For the unaware, the PS3000 was a combination color monitor and
single sided drive, in one housing. My guess is that they were sold
with early 520STs, the ones without the built in 
disk drive.

They were available locally (In Sacramento, CA) at Federated
stores, and this was before Federated was acquired by Atari Corp. I
don't remember what the price was. (This was early-mid 1987??)

I believe I might have read in one of the ST magazines that this
was a limited production peripheral. I didn't have an ST at the
time, so my memory is rather fragmented about the PS3000 (pun
intended).

So, Atari Corp., what was the story on the PS3000?
