Hi, all. I don't own an Atari 520 ST but I am considering to get one
for myself. But, before I make any decisions, I would like to ask
you, fellow  520ST owners, to give me an in depth review of ST. What
I am particularly interested in is its software availability, the 
basic system - for $499 one that is on NYT - , and its worthness.

I mean if I want to do some programming in C , is it possible without
any software?  What are the software that follows with basic system.
Is it fast? Compare to Amiga or Mcintosh, which one do you like?

I heard that the TOS is icon driven; is that true?


Please post. And any help will be appreiated.

Thanks in advance.
