Hi
I will be testing ways to get onto the internet, to find a minimum
requirement.
Anyway the software you require is simple:
HS modem to fix the serial bug.
STiK or STinG (I use STinG)
That will connect you up, you will then need internet clients.
I use:
Newsie - as this is a newsreader, email, ftp and text web browser.
CAB - for web browsing.
I also connected, and am still, to Demon BEFORE I got a pc. I still use
them every now and then.
If you want help etc.. and you use IRC, then the chaps and chappesses of
channel #atari and #atariscne will usually help.
I use atarIRC client although there are others.
There is a newsgroup or 2 that most Atarians read:
comp.sys.atari.st
comp.sys.atari.st.tech
although they have ST in the title doesn't mean it is ST only, they
cater for most Atari computers, STacy, Portfolio, TT, Falcon... even
sometimes the Jag.
-- Cheers! For Now
