Steve, While I was manning a booth our user group put up at a local computer fest and swap meet, the real tragedy of the Atari camp became quite evident to me. It seems that the ST owners are even heaping scorn upon the 400/800 camp, and there are rival ST groups that don't even talk to each other. There does not seem to be the feeling of cameraderie and sharing of knowledge that is so prevalent in the Amiga community. Your comments about the ST and the 64 both being "Tramiel machines" is worthy of note. I'm going to have to think about that one. Regards, Larry.
