Please send a letter to Atari Customer Relations, 1196 Borregas Ave.,
Sunnyvale CA 94086, Attn: ST BASIC.  Your card may have fallen through the
cracks.  Just tell us you need your ST BASIC disk and manual.

When you bought your machine, it had TOS on disk, and we let everyone know
that the ROM chip version would cost extra.  It cost more for us to 
manufacture ST's back then, too.
