You can find several places that make an ST to VGA adapter cable which
is good.
Ram upgrades are all very easy to install and you can find them from B&C
Computervisions - www.myatari.com and from Best Electronics -
www.best-electronics-ca.com
Look at places like atariage.com in its ST section, several very easy
homebrew IDE interfaces are available or you can pick up a MegaFile HD
which plugs into Atari's ACSI interface (a slight variant on SCSI with
its own self assigning drive # system)
It all comes down to what you are planning to use the ST for, also if
you want to Internet enable your ST look into getting an Ethernec card -
its an NE2000 unit that plugs into the cartridge port and uses a
modified version of the STing Ip protocol.

There was only one?
STacy's are remarkable machines and when you
take into account that they
were smaller and lighter then the Mac portable and its honk'n lead acid
battery - the STacy was a truly remarkable machine.
Any recommendations for "must get" upgrades? Is it worth it putting more
RAM in it? How difficult is it to shoehorn a hard disk inside (I don't have
the unit yet, it's still in a Fedex truck somewhere).
