I am a long time 8-bit atari user and was thinking about getting a ST. But now I have to do some thinking. Just how compatible is PC Ditto? Does it work on the Mega-ST's? Where can you get a 5 1/4" drive to use on the ST or Mega. How much slower does PC Ditto run on a ST than a program takes on a IBM? Could someone please fill me in on this product. I need to know everything! The ST's I am looking at are a 1040 or (if the money supply hold up) a Mega ST. Thanks in advance, Tom john1233@csd4.milw.wisc.edu or tommyj@lakesys
