I was just wondering why the 8-bit atari machines don't have a binaries
group. Is no one writing anything for these machines anymore? Is there no
shareware or freeware around?

I can't access the archive sites other than through mail servers. It would
be nice if I could share some programs with the rest of you (when I find a
modem for the 8-bit machines, that is).

I have an old 400 that just quit working. I am trying to find someone to 
service it. If I get it fixed, or get another 8-bit machine and a modem,
I will gladly share what I have written. I just need an archiver from out
there in net land.
