One of my favourites for 512K is Virtual Escape by Equinox.

Good news, aliexpress agreed to a 90% refund.. Hopefully I'll receive it.

As you may or may not know Alliexpress is a short of an ebay alternative and Aliexpress sucks! Seriously don't buy from aliexpress! Never buy from Aliexpress. Send Aliexpress where it belongs, to history! Long story short. I bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 screen from a seller in Aliexpress and the item was defective. Meaning that the digitizer won't work. It happens in ebay too, but out of eight purchases from Aliexprees three were defective. That's right, there is a very high probability you'll get a defective product from Aliexpress. I'll tell you now why this happens. Aliexpress does not have buyer protection but seller protection. Now the way these things work, the screen is already installed on the cell phone. As you may know those are assembled using glue. So if I have to remove it there is a good chance it will break to little pieces. The seller ofcourse doesn't want to cover shipping costs for the defective item he shipped or removal costs. OK they are a lousy awful terrible seller. It happens. So I asked aliexpress to mediate. Big mistake. Firstly aliexpress (which sucks) asked me to take a video of the installation of the screen (I have already sent them a video showing the digitizer not working). Secondly the operators speak english through google translate. There is no other explanation on why the response to: "I have to pay money to have the screen uninstalled and reinstalled to take the video you want." is "If they ask you money for the video upload it to youtube.com" I have the transcript of the conversation but that's the jeez of it... Anyway, apparently aliexpress will decide in favor of the seller. I am almost 100 euros screwed but hopefully this post can help you save money in your purchases. BTW my ebay score is 100% as a buyer. I don't know if it means anything to you, but I am not trying to rip them off. I just don't want to receive defective products from aliexpress. I'll keep you posted on the ongoing frustration saga that is alliexpress. P.S. The installation of the screen was done by a certified technician that has done this operation numerous times.

Ignore that book.. it's just 1001 st basic listings. ST BASIC is a bad implementation of BASIC. Any generic book with BASIC applications will do. The listings there use none of the st features and the same book has been written for multiple other systems with just the necessary corrections for differences in dialects and computer names. I think it's far more interesting to try and find things you like doing, or things you do daily and see how and if they can be done on an ST.

An ST. The game was first developed on an ST!

It's been too long since I tested it under TOS but I believe it should work. Though it will definitely be better on mint.

I think highwire might have a better chance of displaying sites. Have you tried that?

Yes, you are kind of misunderstanding something. Though the term was not originally used for what I mean, it has now become a synonym of laissez - faire capitalism and the elimination of the state's role in the economy. Basically the ideas of Hayek and Friedman, though Hayek wouldn't actually go that far.

Let me explain it to you in the proper neo-liberal economic terms you should be able to comprehend, judging by your comment on healthcare. When you commited to buying Another World you knew that it was an unfinished product. Therefore what you did, was not a purchase but an investment in the manufacturing of said product. With that you assume the financial risk that's inherent in that investment. Now since you are so much inlove with private insurance, as a good investor what you should have done was to insure your investment against any problems that might arise. The fact that you failed to do that means that you assumed all the investment risk yourself. You have noone else to blame but yourself.

That might be helpful for sites that have a special mobile version, assuming that that version is not more modern than the classic one, but for sites made with responsive design it will be painful.

An ftp client.. Litchi and aftp come to mind..

I am just glad I could help...

A friend went to a dealer the other day and said, "I'd like a bag for my Atari Jaguar." The dealer replied, "Okay. Sounds like a fair trade."

Downfall in particular shows that very well, the level of control you have with the joystick over the jag pad is significant. I wonder if there is a joystick adapter for the jaguar..

No, no, no, it's easy to spot actually. Paranoidlittleman, releases stuff, in much less than 7 years I might add, and they don't cost $80 +S&H.

Maybe this old post could be of some help.. http://atariage.com/forums/blog/199/entry-4260-sting-atari-to-pc/

1. To transfer the files. Format the floppy on Atari then copy the files on the PC. 2. http://www.atari-for...hp?f=69&t=20025 3. There are some atari users in Italy. I don't know if they have a forum or something but maybe it's worth a look through google.

We had an article about this on the last issue of lowres. https://lowresmag.wordpress.com/2011/02/04/top-10-atari-st-indie-games/ There were also some excellent suggestions in the comments sections.

LOL! Automation on the Jaguar just doesn't seem right!

Well, with 1mb left someone could easily make a top down port of quake, or if they are really ambitious a 3d one, like the third part of Robocop 3.

I am not really sure it's teradesk that's causing the issue. NVDI installs also some cpx and desk accessories. Those could be the issues.

Wow! This game has changed quite a lot since I presented it at Outline.. with 64-bits of problems..

Well, I don't know if Apple found any ideas in ST GEM and used it in their later projects but that statement is indeed odd. After all GEM was inspired by the Macintosh.

MP2 is about twice the size of an MP3. The track in the falcon demo Beams is an MP2 @ 32KHz and it sounds OK. The falcon can play a 64KBps MP3 with about 5% cpu usage but I guess that's because of resampling. It should be OK if you have a 44.1KHz clock on the DSP.
