I've got REAL hardware and software and rarely use the buggy emulators.

Apparently the Atari800 emulator programmers feel their programs are their property.  So stated.  So be it.  

If I use their program,  I 'owe' them.  I owe them because these programs are not freely given.  Their 'free' contribution to the Atari community is nil.

I do not wish to 'owe' anyone anything.  ALL Atari800 emulators are now deleted from my system.  Their are other emulators.  I advise all atarians do the same, or better yet, use the REAL thing instead.

Hey, don't anyone ever forget, ain't nothin' better than the real thing.

Someone mentioned that 5.25 DSDD disks are getting hard to find, well I have tons of them, and the good thing is, they are in sealed hard plastic cases of 10, so they are storage cases with very nice gold lettering "DYSAN 100% Error Free Lifetime Warranty"  I use them with a real COMMOMDORE 64 and an ATARI 800 and XEGS.

If anyone needs some just ask, you'll need to pay shipping and sothat I don't get to overflooded with requests I'll sell it for $5.00 a box + shipping.  You won't have to worry about storage cases, these kick major ass. I have about 100 boxes of them. I'm going to keep at least 50.

Come to think of it, $5 for ten migh tbe steep?  I'll sell 2 boxes of 10 for $5, then add shipping. I'm quite content to keep them all too, but I'm offering them in case (pun intended) someone is having a hard time finding them.

*MY* discussion?  If you are speaking of the "shut down for legal reasons"
thread, please note that Thomas started this here, not me.  You tell HIM to
move the thread and I'll go wherever it goes, but the thread doesn't *belong*
to me.
