RE: Atari dispersing info "free" about the ST(e) etc.

Remember on the 8bits the book "DE RE ATARI"??  And the OS guide and hardware
guide that were available (don't remember the names -- the loose leaf ones)???

Why can't Atari do or condone something like that for the STe and other 68k
products for the average Joe to use.  Those above mentioned resources were what
got me really interested in Atari -- a lowly high school kid could learn
all about
how to make a computer do neato stuff.  And I didn't have to become a
registered
developer, pay too much money, etc.
