   Atarians,

    Sorry about the last message but my fingers were typing slower than 
I was thinking.  Anyhow like I was saying, by typing in the folling line
at the ready prompt you will know which revision you have.

                    Print Peek(43234)

Match the number that the computer responds with to the list below.

                  Revision A ---> 162
                  Revision B ---> 96
                  Revision C ---> 234

   You can find the ad for Computervisions in ANTIC magazine (just
read the fine print).  Time for installing the chip is about 10
minutes.  It is socketed so anyone can perform this without any
electronic experience.

  I also wanted to thank those of you who helped me out with my 
Championship Lode Runner problem. It seems I will have to be more
imaginative with this program.

Having just done this myself, there are a few caveats.  The BASIC chip is
static sensitive so do not touch it with your hands.  Use a tool to remove 
and insert the IC.  

Also:  BASIC XE by OSS gives 108 when you print peek (43234).
I do not know what BASIC XL gives.  (I also wonder who assigns the numbers
so that they are unique?)
