Hello again, 
	
	Does anybody out there have any idea as to if there *IS* a LAN card 
or setup for the Mega ST's, or if there will ever be one developed?  Also, 
if there is no chance of finding a card to go inside the Mega's, whatever 
happened to MOSES PromiseLAN, or Atari's networking setup?  What do users 
in Europe do if they want to link Mega's together in an office environment?

	Also, does anyone know of a way to set up the SLM804 to emulate 
more than just the DIABLO 630?  I'm trying to get Wordperfect to work 
nicely and the DIABLO emulator does not handle a large portion of the 
features found in WordPerfect.  On another note, I would like to WARN all 
potential users of Wordperfect and the SLM804--DO *NOT* USE WPSPOOL.ACC 
WHEN YOU ARE USING THE DIABLO630 EMULATOR!  The accessory seems to eat 
into the same area in memory that is used by the emulator which forces you 
to reload the emulator if you want to print anything with Wordperfect.
