Several tens of messages and a few bottles of wine later I have no idea what's going on but everyone have a happy new year and I might even dig out my Atari from the loft. If I can find the loft that is!

I hooked it up to my
Televideo 950 terminal, 10 meg HD, and the twin Pertec 1.2 Meg drives and it
booted right away, I said my goodbye and took it all to the dump, hardware,
software, books. In absolute mint condition, that use to be my baby until 1984.
I have regretted it, not just for the money but the memories of the fun I had
with that computer. Different days, with very efficient software, the OS would
boot in less than .5 seconds once the HD spins up. AND YOU SOLD IT OR LOST
IT? That might be worth a lot
of money to a museum, I know a friend that sold a Altair for $40,000. I could
kick myself, I owned Altair #19, personally delivered and signed inside by Ed
Roberts, I use to know him well. Funny thing his dad use to look just like
Jimmy Carter the President.
