I'm currently considering purchasing a "home" computer. Actually, I'm
trying to decide between an ST and an Amiga (forgive me). I've already
done some looking into the differences, but I'm afraid that I'm a little
behind the times. I was hoping that someone could answer some questions
for me:

	1. Has Atari upgraded their operating system to allow some form
	   of multitasking? If not does someone else supply a multitasking
	   OS? What about MINIX?

	2. Who retails the ST line in the Redondo Beach (LA) area?

	3. Who supplies what hard disks for the ST?

	4. Does X Windows run on the ST?

	5. Does GNU emacs or a micro emacs run on the ST?

Thanks for your patience.
