Also, found a little module that apparently plugs
somewhere into an Atari

Mac". Anyone ever use one of these? Where on the ST would this plug in
to?
It goes in the Atari's cartridge port, a little-used connector on the
side of the machine. Used an unusual type of edge connector, and
hardly any software was supplied on cartridges. Some sound samplers
used it, though. I think the signals available were read-only,
fine for ROMs, but preventing the use of the slot for most types
of peripherals.
