I have a friend in Junior High that wants to get a computer, but doesn't
know what to get.  I believe that he wants to spend <$1000, so I suggested
that he look into Atari STs.  I've looked over all the previous postings
available on my system, but still have a few questions...  If you have
experience with emulator packages (emulating Macs or IBMs), please drop me
a line or two regarding performanec and limitations...  Also if you have
any comments in general on the IBM clone vs. Atari decision, feel free
to drop me a line, as well.  

Please reply by email to the bottom address of my signature as reply may or
may not work depending on your news reader...  I will summarize and followup
at a later date...

						Thanks,
						Ron
