Things have been kind of quiet in this group recently, which is odd
since if Atari's public statements were true the 520ST should be on
retailers shelves.  Has any one seen one for sale?  Someone claimed
that the 520ST was available in Canada, but there have been no recent
postings to tell us how wonderful the "Jackintosh" is when you buy
it and take it home.

What is happening to the user group machines?  I saw one enthusiastic
posting about a VT52 (clearly state of the art) emulator.  What else
can one do with the machines that have been shipped?  Has the "mixup"
continued and the software somehow got lost?
