51.0. "Help for a new ST owner" by ODIXIE::WARNER (So I might steal your diamonds...) Thu Apr 21 1988 18:34

    Hello one and all.  I am the proud owner of a brand new
    520ST.  I've been wanting a 520/1040 for ages, but never 
    seemed to be able to scrape together the bucks.
    
    During a moment of true inspiration at Lechemere over the 
    weekend, I managed to CONvince a manger to sell me one of 
    their orphaned display-model 520 RGB systems for about the 
    price of the RGB monitor alone.
    
    I feel I was lucky--the system seems to work fine, but one
    of the tradeoffs was they had no system disks for the little 
    beast.  I believe there's a system disk and a language disk
    that come from ATARI, right.
    
    If anyone would know how I might aquire said disks, I would 
    be eternally gratefull.  (Unfortunately, I don't know anyone
    who has an ST.  Oh, I'm in Atlanta, by the way).
    
    Thanks a bunch,
    
    Steve W.

    Steve,
    
    My atari 1040st came with the two disks in question.  I could make
    them available on the net if you have some sort of file transfer
    program to copy them.  If not, send me (via office mail) some disks
    and I'll copy the two disks you ask for and give you a copy of uniterm
    (has kermit built in) and other goodies to get you on your way.
    
    Any questions feel free to contact me.
