Episode 3 - Atari ST Beginners Guide

So you got an Atari ST? (Maybe for Christmas too! :) )

Great choice! This episode will explain what you need to get started using your Atari ST computer. You will need a display, a mouse, and a storage device to get started.

Errata: UltraSatan was designed by Miroslav Nohaj, not Miro Kropachek. I apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
