One more thing - I have found that the people at atari bend over backwards to help you whether or not you are a developer. Most people do not have this impression, though. The reason, I think, is that Atari is a "small" company doing big business and many of us have fallen through the cracks from time to time just because they don't have the personell to take care of everthing. I think that neil and dyer coming to the net are an example of this: it took them a long time to make it to the net (exasperating many of us) but they did make it and are now doing a very fine job of keeping us informed and giving individual help when asked (I had a few special favors to ask and these were granted before I knew what happened - I am too ashamed to tell you what those favors were because they involved privileges that almost no one else has at this time). disclaimer: I have fallen through the cracks many times myself, yet I have great respect for the people at Atari (like neil and dyer and frick) who have always answered my questions WITHOUT first asking whether I was a developer. Above all, I love my ST and I could tolerate a whole lot more mistreatment before even entertaining the thought of giving it up. I am not connected with Atari in any way.
