Somebody told me that Atari is coming/has come out with some 64K computers which I assume are supposed to compete against the Commodore C64. Does anybody have any word about or experience with them? How much of the 64K is accessible to the user? Are there any expand modules available for them like the CP/M cartridge and the Apple emulator for the C64? I also have a question about Atari disk drives. The C64 drives are slow, largely because of the serial interface. How do the Atari drives fare in comparison? Thanks a lot for all replies. Since this info is probably already known to most of the readers of this group, please reply to me via mail. -- --Bill
