8BIT 1337 Posted January 22, 2003 Share Posted January 22, 2003 Just wondering where you ST collectors would recommend I start looking to acquire the machine and such to get me started? Obviously I don't want to pay an arm and a leg - I just want the machine and a drive and maybe some software to get me going. I don't have any experience with the ST outside of playing with STeem a bit (and seeing it at a friends once as a kid). Which is why I'm coming to you guys and gals.

Maarten Martens Posted January 22, 2003 Share Posted January 22, 2003 I would try ebay! If that is without succes , check out this guy's shop at http://www.myatari.com/ good luck! look for an STe ... it's a great piece of hardware!

Goochman Posted January 22, 2003 Share Posted January 22, 2003 Mega4STe is what I would get - Someone was giving one away for free provided you take the rest of his ST equipment (you pay for shipping). It had a starter kit and everything else - check past msgs on this board for it. Otherwise a 1040ST or Mega2 ST would do the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmigaKiller Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 If you were in the UK, you could try a cash converters shop! I've bought a 520STFM & 1040STE from there for under £50, I even bought a Jaguar from them!! But a 1040STE would have to be the minimum spec machine, but then again not much software actually used the extra specs of the STE and quite a few of my older games & demo's don't run on an STE, so maybe a 1040STFM or one of the older 'Mega' ST's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8BIT 1337 Posted February 6, 2003 Author Share Posted February 6, 2003 Unfortunately I'm not in the UK - I'm in the Great White North (aka Canada). I appreciate the offer though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
