More than likely, Hoping to open up the mega this week and look at how many
roms it takes. I would like to upgrade at least to v1.4 and eventually get a
switcher. Also eventually hoping to get my little lady up and running on the
internet either through wifi or ethernet but have to start my new job before
finalizing that one.

http://eureka.atari.org/atari.html> was
updated. The goal consists in valid links, even if it corresponds to
sometimes dated information. Part of these bookmarks persist since the
creation of the WEB site, back to the year 1996.
The interest with those numerous bookmarks, there's about 600, is to
constitute an ATARI uptodate and dedicated search engine of the on-line
scene. It is a service provided by Google Co-op. The base of this engine
is a collection composed from time to time. It's now quite consistent.
This is a WEB 2.0 experience, because even if I'm responsible for its
creation, the *ATARI Search Engine* can possibly be integrated by
ATARI web-masters adding its HTML code.

I know this is way past the post of this message. I just finally got my Atari
MegaST2 back up and running and actually connected enough to my modern
computer that I hope to soon stream with it (if I can get a few bugs worked
out) But my question is my desktop info says 1987 which makes me think it is
not the last ROM and as someone who is just getting into fiddling with the
mobo how hard is it to switch the ROM to the Rainbow TOS??

When Fred Chesnais (the CEO of ATARI) meets Steve Wozniak, he presents
him the first VCS console model out of the factories, and offers a
present ...
Steve Wozniak is quite surprised, because this sharing is unexpected !
