In the not-too-distant future, I will be in the market for a new
computer.  I currently own an ancient Mac 512K which has been upgraded
about as far as it is worth without buying a new machine.  I have heard
many positive things about the ST and the Mac emulators for it and am 
considering as my next machine.

However, it will be some time before I could afford an entire system and
I would like to try to stretch the life of my Mac a little longer by
getting a hard drive.  The problem is, if I purchase a SCSI drive for the 
Mac (in particular, a Syquest drive) will I have to ditch it if I should
buy an Atari?  Or do drivers exist which would let me use it with an ST?

If you know anything about this please e-mail me and I'll summarize if
there is some interest.

Thanks,
Gary Thompson
