how this thing works

2002-08-19 by dizardsdreams

hello atari people,blimmy,puting an harddrive onto an atari is an 
expensive carry on,asuming you can find someone who can do 
it.Unfortuneatly the chap who you put me onto tim can nolonger get 
his hands on the dma adapters,which leaves paying 60quid for an 
internal ide port been hardwired inside by a barry at an atari 
place.Then via the email came this chap advertising stuff to sell,to 
which I put a request in for any harddrive stuff.Does this request,if 
it has been posted from here,go back to here?I am pritty new to this 
messaging game so I dont know.
I am beginning to think that It might be better running atari 
software via amulation on a pc,The old standard pentiums are going 
for a song on ebay,anyone had experiance on this front?
Infact I am feeling a bit of a fruad,all my stuff is mainly 
amigas,and a pc,will atari software runing on a pc give me any 
credability amongst you atari folk?
The making money posts have been interesting,especially the 
prostitution one,on the grand scale of thing I guess we are pritty 
lucky people to be able to make our pops and squeeks via all those 
impressive flashing lights and gismose,even if some of us(me)have to 
eat porridge to pay for it all,at least me are eating,and at the end 
of the day,this music addiction isnt one that kills us,or causes harm 
to anyone...hay...we are really nice people,who needs lots of 
money?.....ching ching..my little finger sycmbals are going...oy..get 
off...thats my orange robe!
