I totally agree with the guys "above". I own a Sio2sd as well as
a MyIde 2.
Although I' m a Commodore Fan, I prefer now
the Atari. The reason is the hardware already mentioned.
I have to add, that i started with the MyIde2.
But if you're digging deeper, you probably want to have
a Sio2Sd too.
AAAnd... If you want to spend even more money,
I suggest an Ultimate 1MB Ram expansion.
So, now you know my whole equipment
You may start with the MyIde. It is really compatible
with almost everything.
You can serve the CF with your PC, and only use
the FAT32 feature. If you are more experienced,
you HAVE TO use it's ability as a Atari "harddisk".
