madhatter667 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Where I come from is a harder question to answer than "Where do I live?" From: A bit of everywhere, as I have lived many places. Dunoon, Scotland being the short answer. Where I live? Port Orchard, WA...USA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamakazi Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I'm 34, and live in a NW Arkansas town called Harrison. I just recently aquired a nice 520ST and have been really enjoying it...although I'd really like to upgrade it externally. Can't wait to have a get together with other ST owners and see what all the ST can do in a group. Yea, I know...I sound childish. What can I say, when it comes to Atari, I'm a 34-year old kid.

doctorclu Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Here we have the changing of the guard, my TT030 talking to a Mac G4 (laplink to serial/USB adaptor) Pulled the mod collection off the TT030. Anyway, just wanted to show another TT030 for this thread. It was fun powering it up last night for the first time in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 The TT and Mega STe sure had some cool industrial design. Pity the Tramiels were such cheapskates and didn't use that design for the Falcon. Nice setup and the 12" PowerBook is sweet too.

The 12" Powerbook is the best pile of parts a friend ever gave me. I took a good look at the parts and said "You know, this would be cool if it worked..." The TT030 was a great machine, but I got the feeling that when the Falcon was made they wanted an uber STE... for graphics and gaming. And the Atari TT/MegaSTE were the uber Mega ST's.

icbrkr Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I've got my STE (and ermm... soon to be TT030) hooked to the same way to my OS X box. I've got it logging into a shell under OS X and installed irc-ii and lsz on the OSX box so I can IRC from the STE and send files to it via Zmodem.

Christos Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Wouldn't it be better to just use an irc client on the STE itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icbrkr Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Wouldn't it be better to just use an irc client on the STE itself? Sure would... then I'd need a TCP stack, network connection between the two , etc. Or... I could shell into my OS X box via terminal program across a nullmodem cable What you're suggesting is my ultimate goal but I'm not there yet.

I think that's the same one I've got bookmarked on paradize's website that I'm attempting. The stack didn't work on 1.62 so I upgraded to 2.06 and it works fine. Right now, it's more of the lack of time than anything - watching the newborn right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christos Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 It's different to the one on the paradize website but I did use that one as a source. Oh and about the newborn: congratulations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mibe Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Västerås, Sweden. I believe I've got all models except Mega STE and I'm particulary proud of my Falcon and TT, both are NOS and (of course) extremely beautiful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mimo Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Someone from these 'ere forums has just sent me a boxed 520STE with upgrade to 1040 STE. The original box has 1040 decals placed over the 520 ones. Does anyone know if Atari did this, or if a delaer would do the upgrade before selling. Also, how easy are these things to upgrade to 4 meg, for no other reason that it can be done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, how easy are these things to upgrade to 4 meg, for no other reason that it can be done The good news is that the STe is the easiest and cheapest to upgrade to 4MB (less than £10). Just open the case and unscrew the metal shielding covers until you see the memory sockets near the PSU. Remove old SIMM modules and insert your four 1MB SIMMs into the slots, then screw everything back again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
