The ATARI user groups are finally getting ST's as a member of one
of these groups rejoices on CompuServe:

Sb: The ST's are HERE!
Fm: Frank Nagle 70505,577
To: Jack P. Durre' 75046,476


Just thought I'd let you know that the ST's are out! As Tim said, we on
the West Coast just went over to Atari and picked them up! Wasn't quite
as easy as that! Had a little wait (2 hrs) and a little mixup, and then
finally the systems. As a matter of fact, the mixup continues, seems we
got machines without software! Will be going back tomorrow to get the
final pieces. I stopped by late tonight at Atari, caught Neil Harris
in, and got him to make a copy of TOS/GEM so I could type this in on
the VT52 emulator right now! Yes, I am using the ST, and it's a ***
FANTASTIC *** machine! Have the Monochrome monitor, and the resolution
is absolutely great. 80 columns and EXTREMELY READABLE. No more
eyestrain! As for shipments elsewhere in the country, have no definite
info from anyone at ATARI. Supposedly they were planning to ship either
yesterday (Monday the 8th) or today (Tuesday the 9th), but I can't
confirm that. Hope you get yours soon! Frank
