Talk about obscurity... Do the XL/XE machines come with documentation
on the built in Atari BASIC? Mine didn't... (It was used...) As a matter
of fact, it didn't come with *any* sort of documentation. Not that you
really needed anything else. (The modem and disk drive came with "system
assembly instructions," so I guess that's good enough. My drive was new
so it had the DOS 2.5 disk and docs as well...)

Does anyone know of a place that still sells De Re Atari?

Try looking in either ANTIC or ANALOG for an add from B & C Computers,
or American TV one of them will have DE RE ATARI, or you could order
it directly from ATARI.

American TV in California sells de re Atari, last I heard.  I think the price
was around $12 or 12.50 plus shipping.  They also have Inside Atari Basic for
about $6, although this is a book for beginners.  Your Atari Computer
and Atari XL/XE Users' Guide are the best overall books, especially the
former.  They show up on a lot of bookstores' shelves.  There is also a
book called the Atari BASIC Source Book, which tells all the secrets about
the BASIC interpreter, including listing the source code.  (I guess for
version A.)

Serious hackers should also get Inside Atari DOS, which is excellent, though
it  contains at least one error I have noticed.  The O/S manual and listings
are available from Atari.

The computer sells for $69.95 now but you can spend $200 on documentation!
I'm going into the publishing business!
