I now have some free time so I pulled it out of the closet and it booted up just fine. Anyway, the last time I used it, almost a year ago, there was talk about Atari releasing an updated OS, blitter chip, 4-Meg upgrade, and stuff like that. Did any of this stuff ever get released? I sent in all the registration cards when I purchased my 1040ST and would assume (am I nuts!) Atari would keep me informed of new product releases and such. Well, to this day I've haven't received anything from Atari. The question is did I miss any major updates? If so, how would I go about getting my machine updated? I'm in good shape with the software I purchased for the machine since I kept upgrading the packages when the vendors sent me their upgrade offers. My only problem is the ST itself. Also, which are the latest mags for the ST computes. I sent in a sub. card to STart last year but never received anything. Now I can't even find a St mag anywhere. Any recommendation? Thanks In Advance, John -- John C. Antrosiglio AT&T Bell Laboratories Crawford Corner Road Holmdel, New Jersey 07733 ihnp4!{homxc|hotlf|hotld}!jca
