I sure am glad I did -- I love the new system. However, as hard as it is for me to believe (I was using a 800xl), I have found that 512k is not enough memory for my needs. There has been information posted all over about upgrading your ST to 1 meg, but, alas, I am no engineer, or even a decent solderer. Where can I send my ST for an upgrade that: A) Is relatively inexpensive and reliable B) Has a quick turn around C) Will _not_ void my Atari warranty. As an aside, it would be neat if one could have an upgrade that simply plugged into the cartridge port, so that clods like me could do it ourselves. I think that it might be real seller, provided that it was possible. BTW, why doesn't the line: 10 C$=INKEY$: IF C$="" THEN 10 in ST Basic allow you to enter a single key? It stays in the loop indef- initly, and stores that characters you type until after you BREAK out. a.d. jensen Department of Geography, University of North Dakota
