Could someone respond ASAP to this question?  I might buy a guy's Atari system,
and I need some input VERY QUICKLY, like Tonight, Right Now, Pronto, please.

I'm being offered a $400.00 price for an Atari 1040ST, including a built-in
3.5" floppy, 1-meg RAM installed, a monochrome monitor (higher resolution for
MIDI stuff), and probably whatever game/software collection he has.  Or $500
for all that but a color monitor instead.

Microware said they could still sell Personal OS9 2.4 (the older version) for
the Atari ST for $150.00, so this system looks rather inticing.

IS THIS A GOOD PRICE FOR USED EQUIPMENT?

Do any of the KMAers offer substantially more power for same price range?

I've heard others using the CM-8 monitor on the Atari ST.  Can I do this and
save even more by not buying the monochrome tube?

I need to know TONIGHT July 30 if you can answer.  The guy is leaving sometime
tomorrow afternoon so I won't be able to log onto CIS before then (daytime
rates & all that).

- Thx, Paul Seniura.
