  I'm here and I'm listening, and will do all I can to help.  The technical
books are on the way--but they are being written by an out of house writing
group, and we have no control over when they get done.  For those who remember
the very beginnings of the old Atari, most of us went around for the first
two years, desperately trying to get ahold of the technical reference notes--
it wasn't until the 800 had been out a while (read a couple of years) before
the docs started becoming available.

  If you have technical questions about the machine, a language, etc., call
our Tech Support Linesa 408-745-2004, 2005, or 2006.  I promise you'll get
an answer to your question (and if my people or I don't know the answer,
we'll find out).  We're a lot smaller than the old Atari was, but we're
sincerely trying to do what you want.  Thanks!
