I have heard many, many comments about different interfaces for the Atari line of computers, but none are as reliable or as supported as the Atari 850 Interface. They can be found through most mail order places for about $70. With one you can add both printers and modems. I have 4 computers (three at home and one at my office), and I have the 850 in both places. Anyone have a better idea? From inside the Tesseract of Clancy Malloy
