- You need to have a cartridge inserted to get something other then 'memo pad'
- If you can't find anyone locally, people that handle still handle Atari will
- sell you REV A BASIC for about $5. If you get really desperate, I've got a

- on it to boot properly. If that isn't the problem, it could be the drives are
- both set to respond as drive #1. Just check the switches in the back & make
- sure they aren't in the same position(s). It doesn't matter what comes 1st
