I don't know if there was such a thing as a 15 MB IDE. There was a 20 MB
(ST 125? It had the same characteristics as the ST-225). I think I have a
coupla 40 MB's.
You'll have to have IDE cards with floppy controller, and serial/parallel,
'cause that's what I have.

Please. I'm not independently wealthy, as some of the collectors on this

Not So. Atari was completely sold to Tramiel. You might be confusing
them with Activision which was founded by former Atari programmers.

I think that's Atari Games which Warner held on to (? at least it didn't
fall into the hands of Tramiel) and has been putting out arcade games as
well, I think.

They gave JTS a bridge loan of 25 Million and merged with JTS. If the
merger did not work JTS owes the loan. If it does work, then the loan
is forgiven. Atari licensed games to Sega and Nintendo. They also
write games for other platforms including MS DOS/Windows. I believe
their name is now ATARI INTERACTIVE GAMES, but I'll check on it.

This is NT we're talking about -- the machine is a lost cause unless ya
revert to *nix / Solaris.
Of course, I wonder if I could write a webserver for OS-9 Level II.... ;-)
Does anyone have the specifications for programming a TCP/IP stack? (yea
I've heard of KA9Q... but that's all in C, so it's too big for a CoCo). I'm
talking from _scratch_...
Have fun,

Okay... I'll take the IDE cards; but then I'd need IDE HDDs. I used to have
2; but then I gave one to a friend (and their 286!) and the other ended up
going to repair another friends computer. So I'd need the drives too.... As
close to 15MB as they come....
You can just ship 'em to me. I can pay for shipping; if you want. DO
NOT SHIP THEM TO THE SCHOOL. If it would make you feel more comfortable, I
can get the teachers address, but not yet.
Thanks,
Tim D. Hotze
