Oh that's right I saw you mentioned Ataris somewhere on your blog posts,
too. I am jealous now. I've wanted an atari 130xe again and an ST or
TT/Falcon at some point to play with for so long again, but I haven't had the
stability to get it done in forever, nor the space requirements... Something
to work for, soon as I've got the packet radio tie-in for my BBS done. :)
I was thinking that'd crash... I wonder if it'd do alright on 33.6 or any
of the higher compressions that never seem to actually reach the legit speeds
like that on POTS. Anyway, yeah, that's what I expected. Heh. Still,
absolutely beautiful. :)
