The primary FTP site for 8-bit Atari's (is it the only one?) is
atari.archive.umich.edu
(User:  Anonymous, Pass:  your address)
The 8-bit stuff is in /atari/8bit.
There is a subdirectory in /atari/8bit called sio2pc with all the information
you need on it.

And yes, I think SIO2PC is what you're interested in.  It lets the Atari
send stuff to "Dx:" or "P:" which is intercepted by your PC.  The PC
then simulates an Atari drive or printer for you.  Except for copy-protected
stuff, I no longer need to use my 810.  When you send stuff to P:, the PC
can send it to its printer or to a file.  At present, the program doesn't
give you access to any ports other than the printer port, but what else
do you need?  (Well, I could see some use for access to a modem, but that's
only if you want to use a graphic terminal program.)

Does anyone have their 8bit hooked up to a laser printer.  I have an HPIIIP and
sometimes it would be easier to hook it up to the 8bit.  Are there any drivers
out there for the HP?  Id like to use it with Atari Writer or Text Pro.  I
tried writing my own driver for Atari Writer, but no luck.
Any input would be helpful at this point.

Are you trying to tell me that storing, say, 16k in a RAM disk takes up 
less room than storing 16k in RAM??  (remember, I'm using the patch that 
adds that 101-sector RAM disk to an un-upgraded system (like min)).

And I still think those squiggly "|"s don't look very good! ;)  
        I'll try those numbers, ONLY after you tell me WHERE they are! :)

thanx..         I've yet to see CGS using the graphics mode (trying to 
get it to do it manually, while not online is quite a headache! :) )

Ya gotta change the "," to a period. (somebody else told me this a few 
messages back Itay.  Pay attention! ;) ).  If you use the comma, it'd try 
to mail "#####" (the first set) and "####@compuserve.com" (the bit after 
the comma) at the same time.  Just like if you wanted to mail me and the

and we'd both get the same message. (right??)           Welp, have fun.

Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou, Ben, for this info...I was depressed
about the fact that mine would not read both sides.. I have an 
RFD series Percom.  I don't think it is double sided..from my tests of
IBM 5 1/4 and 3 1/2 drives.
Although, I just got though talking to Tom Hunt and his Percom with a
IBM 360k drive DOES FORMAT ON BOTH SIDES.  His has a printer port on
the back and 2 card edge connectors and is an SPD series.
Also he told me that IBM drives are very light sensitive and wont 
format if they are out of the case and I tested the 5 1/2" out of the
case..maybe thats what my trouble was.
So, if any one has a SPD series Percom for sale, I'm interested;
else I'll just have to get my hands on an XF551 controller.
Thanks again Ben.

L.A. is part of Atari heaven.  You'll have no problem finding good dealers

If you're going to be there around Sep 12-13, you should stop by the Glendale

Speaking of FSMGDOS, I got the lastest version of it a couple of weeks ago
with my Wordflair II upgrade.  It's supposed to be MultiTOS friendly, now,
but I can't get it to work!  Whenever I run Wordflair, I get 4 bombs (grrr),
so I went back to the older version I got from them with the last upgrade.

A side note about FSM's `vapourware' status:  The README file that came with
the upgrade mentioned that FSM is still in the testing stages, with an
official release yet to come (I guess that makes me a beta-tester :-) ).

This may not be the quick and easy answer you were looking for, and there
may be better ways of doing it, but here goes.

There is a set of utilities to convert from anything to practically anything
else called the Portable Bitmap Utilities by Jef Poskanzer at the site
expo.lcs.mit.edu in the directory `contrib'.  There are utilities in there
top convert from .IMG to pbm and from pbm to postscript (from pnm, actually,
but the portable formats are upward compatible).

The catch is, the archive only contains a set of generic source files that
need to be compiled, and will surely need to be tweaked to work on the ST/TT.

Now if some kind soul would be willing to take care of the compilation of this
mountain of utilities... :-).  I might be able to be cajoled inot doing it,
but that would have to be sometime after I finally get around to download
gnu C (damn, I'm lazy!).

Irregardless of whether this suggestion is useful for the above problem, these
utilities would be invaluable (I was amazed that utilities were provided for
conversion of Degas, .IMG, .GEM (i think), and even Spectrum formats!).

I have no idea how much the chips cost but surely the 040 costs much more than 
the 030. Especially as it's "new".
I thought one of the amazing things about the Falcon was the low price.
Maybe this is one way they are doing it.
(I agree it would be nice to have a 040 ;-> )

Just an opinion....

	To all those having trouble getting in touch with Martin Ibert.

	As as been mentioned before, Martin has a job which keeps him on the 
road a lot, and so, doesn't always answer his mail that quickly. To send him
money, I beleive the address in the 1.0 and 1.03 releases is still good. I 
sent cash. Just figure out what your currency works out to for the DM
price, and add about 10%, to pay for any charges he incurs changing the 
money at the bank. This is much cheaper than buying an international 
money order or doing a bank transfer. This method would probably be 
acceptable top other European shareware authors, but try to check with 
them before sending.
	I just wrap a bunch of old printouts around the $ to prevent it from 
being visible through the envelope.

The author tried to make Atari look bad--plain and simple.

He brought up stuff like Sega investing millions of millions of
dollars to promote the Sega Masters system while Atari spent hardly
any to promote the 7800.

DID IT REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE?  Sega wasted money by attempting
to fight Nintendo.  The Sega Masters was a failure.

Of course, if Atari did spend that amount, they may have won the
law-suit against Nintendo.

We also didn't know EXACTLY what were the reasons behind things
such as Jack checking to make sure tips didn't exceed a certain amount.
Maybe people were writing down that they tipped $40 and really
pocketed the rest?  If no one checked, this person could get away
with it.

I know there are problems at Atari but I think the author had
something against the company.

  Purely out of curiosity, how does one pronounce "FUQ"?

I've been posting messages requesting an Index from
atari.archive.umich.edu, but I have got no replies. Before this, I
have succesfully requested several files via the e-mail fileserver. My
messages requesting the Index look like this :

send Index
path paetau@mits.mdata.fi

and that format has worked well until now. So does anybody know what's
going on?

Thanks in advance!
